​

1. Quotations

All prices quoted by the Designer to the Client (the “quote”) are exclusive of Goods and Services Tax (GST). Quotes will lapse if not accepted within 30 days.

​

2. Work

Work to be carried out by the Designer may be detailed in an estimate (the “estimate”). Any alterations or additions made by the Client following the estimate may be at the financial discretion of the Designer dependent upon the extent of the alterations or additions.

​

3. Payment

The Designer will invoice the Client for the work performed, taking into account the estimate and the quote to the Client (the “invoice”). Invoices will be sent to the Client on a monthly basis and at the completion (the “completion date”) of the work performed. Invoices not paid within 60 days of the completion date will be charged interest at 17% p.a. calculated monthly on the amount outstanding (the “interest”). If payment of the invoice is outstanding for 120 days from the completion date and supply of the work, a collection agency will be engaged by the Designer to collect monies owing by the Client. Interest plus any collection agency charges and/or legal costs will be added to the amount owing and will also be payable by the Client. For all new Clients a deposit of 30% of the estimate shall be payable upon the Client’s acceptance of the quote. The Designer reserves the right to charge the Client a 30% upfront payment for any quote for a design and typesetting project deemed by the Designer to be of a complicated and technical nature. For Clients required to pay the 30% deposit/payment, the balance of the quote shall be due and payable on the 20th of the month after the date of the invoice. The Designer reserves the right to charge, without limitation, for costs and disbursements incurred for items such as, extra production, time and expenses, equipment hire charges, and/ or extra media expenses when the original estimate has been exceeded due to the project extending, or changes by the Client. These expenses may be on-charged to the Client in addition to the quote. Any payments made in full or part, indicate that the Client has read and understood all of our Terms and Conditions of Trade.

 

4. Proof Approval

The Designer is not liable for errors or variations in the finished work where such errors or variations were contained in the proof approved by the Client.
