Signmax.com Return Policy

We want your experience with Signmax.com to be nothing less than wonderful, memorable, and hassle-free.  We have a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee.  In pursuit of that goal, our policies are straightforward, simple, and easy to understand.

We firmly believe our niche is that We Do Temporary Signage Better than Anyone.  Everything we do is done with this in mind.  We believe we are going to love your signs, but if for any reason you are not completely satisfied, please let us know within 5 business days of delivery of your order.  If we do not receive notification within that time-frame, we will understand the product has been accepted.  By accepting the product, you acknowledge that Signmax.com has completely fulfilled the order and satisfied all terms, conditions, and specifications. Signmax.com liability will be limited to the quoted selling price of defective goods, and without additional liability for special or consequential damages.

It is best to open your package upon delivery, so we can address any concerns or issues in a timely manner to meet your deadline. We understand that sometimes the person who orders the product might not always be the one receiving the package from the delivery service. We allow a buffer of 5 days to inform us of any issues.

Our passion is building long-term relationships with our customers, and like all relationships, we believe it is built on trust; we hope you trust us to do what is right and stand by our product, and we trust you will be fair and reasonable in your assessment of your order.

If you are not willing to abide by any of the statements in the return policy, please do not use any aspect of the information or services provided by Signmax.com.

ORDER EDITING & CANCELLATIONS

Ordering product from one of the most efficient and technologically advanced sign companies in the U.S. does have one drawback. With our automation and commitment to meet or exceed deadlines, we are unable to make any edits or cancellations of any type to orders once they have been placed into our production queue.  So please verify your proof, ship to address, and quantity completely before giving final approval.

ACCURACY

We cannot guarantee the color accuracy of any printed product due to the variations on computer displays.  If you are looking for a specific color, do not assume what you see on the screen is exactly how it will print, and be sure to clarify your requests to your Customer Service Representative (CSR).

We have many online designer templates with thousands of graphics and backgrounds to choose from.  These are pre-built, and will print as they have been designed.  If you are looking for your sign to be a specific shade of a color, it must be expressed to your CSR.

Vinyl is a temperature sensitive material and can expand or contract due to heat or cold.  The same banner taken out of the box in 90-degree weather will be a different size from one taken out in 30-degree weather.  We cannot guarantee the exact size of any banner due to temperature fluctuations, and banners can vary by an inch or more.  We are not responsible for any banner received that is too small or big for your purposes.  If the size needs to be precise, such as if it is being installed into an existing frame or hardware, please express this to your CSR to discuss your specific application.

RETURNS

Returns must be approved by Signmax.com, and the following points refer to Custom Items only.  If a product is found defective by Signmax.com, a new one will be created and shipped.  Refunds will proceed as described in “REFUNDS.”  Please keep in mind:

• No returns or refunds due to typos or misspellings in Customer supplied files.
• No returns or refunds due to alterations of signs after delivery (i.e. cutting vented wind slits) that cause premature deterioration of product.
• No returns or refunds due to improper installation which causes deterioration of product.  Simply tying the banner from the 4 corners is not recommended and will void all warranties.  Signmax.com cannot accept any responsibility for damage to banners due to improper installation or acts of nature, including but not limited to extreme cold/heat, rain, wind, sleet, ice, hail, and snow.
• No returns or refunds for any order that arrives after Customer’s deadline, as long as Signmax.com fulfilled order within stated production time and shipped as per Customer’s request.   Our CSR’s are available to answer any questions if you are unsure which shipping method to choose.
• If order is not opened within the allotted 5 business days after delivery, and there is a defect or any other issue found with product, Signmax.com will not be responsible for any expedited shipping fees to meet deadline.
• Returns accepted if Signmax.com has made a mistake after approval from the Customer. Signmax.com will provide shipping label to return the product, and a new product will be made and shipped.

See our Issues & Resolutions page for more resolutions to unlikey circumstances.

Damaged or Defective Item Returns

If you receive merchandise that is defective or damaged upon receipt, please notify us within 72 hours of receiving your product.  Photographs will be required of the damaged or defective product.  If it is determined Signmax.com is at fault, we will have UPS pick up the defective product, reprint the job, and ship it back.  You will only be charged for the initial order and no additional shipping charges.  If you can only send back a partial order, we will only reprint the portion returned.  In-house credits will be for the amount of the product purchased.

Warranty Claims

Products such as ours are designed for temporary applications. Properly installed products are designed to withstand exposure to natural elements. However, elements that are beyond normal conditions can cause deterioration and failure. These include, but are not limited to high winds, hail damage, ice damage, and other natural events. If you do happen to experience a product failure due to a manufacturing defect within 30 days of the purchase date, Signmax.com will replace the product at full cost. Any product that experiences a failure due to a manufacturing defect from 31 to 90 days after the purchase date, Signmax.com will pro-rate your replacement cost.

Non-Custom Stocked Item Refunds

If returning a non-custom product (i.e. banner stand hardware) for reasons other than a manufacturing defect, Customer will be responsible for all shipping costs.  A refund will be processed within 2 to 4 business days of the returned product’s arrival in our warehouse, minus a $35 re-stocking fee, provided the product is confirmed to have arrived in unused, new condition.

SHIPPING

No returns or refunds will be given due to UPS or any other shipping company delays.  Signmax.com will ship your order on the date specified, or else we will upgrade your shipping and cover the cost.  If you are on a deadline, avoid standard Ground shipping, as delivery dates are only estimated and not guaranteed.  Please note that weekends and holidays are not counted as business days, and the day it leaves our production facility is not counted in the number of days.  In all cases and without exception, shipping costs are non-refundable.

Customers agree to be responsible for additional charges from shipping carrier for unclaimed or undeliverable packages.  Your tracking number will be emailed to you once the order has shipped.

If your package arrives damaged and your product is unusable, photographs will be required.  In the meantime, we will deal with UPS and will reprint the damaged portion of the order within standard production time and ship it to you at no cost to you. If the product is returned to Signmax.com via shipping carrier, Signmax.com will contact the customer to determine new shipping address, etc. If the customer does not provide new information or contact Signmax.com, Signmax.com will hold product for 15 business days then disregard the product. 

We suggest keeping the defective goods and the damaged packaging in your possession for 5 to 8 business days after reporting the damage, as UPS may retrieve them as part of their investigation

CLOSING

Since nearly every order we process is customized to your specifications, issues that arise may also be unique.  If you are not satisfied with your order in any way, please contact us as soon as possible, and we will work with you in each case to do what we can to make it right.
