General

We require all customers to complete their orders using the form above. We will also send an email with a link on it. These are the only way we accept personalisation details. We do not accept personalisation requests in eBay messages, PayPal notes or emails. We do not reply to messages requesting confirmation of personalisation details as this is done automatically by an email sent to your eBay registered email address. If you think there has been an error in your processing please let us know and tell us as much information as possible about the error. If you do not give us information using this system within 5 working days we will dispatch the item with no personalisation. If you do not require personalisation we still require you to complete this process so we know and can process your order as soon as possible. If you do not do this you may suffer a delay in receiving your item.

Sublimation

All of our sublimation products are printed using a high quality sublimation process. We print using a top of the range 6 ink printer which ensures a quality print to be transferred onto the item, most printing companies only use an inferior 4 ink printer! The sublimation process ensures that the design will not wear or rub off as can happen with transfers and other methods of putting designs onto the item.

 

All our designs are editable and we will do our best to accommodate anything you wish for this although some things may not be possible. Our team of graphic designers will consult with you on any customisation you require. If you want a design from scratch please select the "Design Your Own" and buy this as it will help ensure you get your picture exactly as you want.

Payment

We accept Paypal, Cheque, Postal Order and any of the credit cards displayed on the left (via paypal). All payments are due within seven working days of purchase after this we will initiate a buyer dispute if we haven't heard from you. We do not dispatch any item until a complete payment has been received and cleared.

Checkout

Checkout is performed through the eBay checkout process. Personalisation information will be gathered by the form on the listing or by an email which will be sent to you a soon as you complete the payment. If you do not receive this form please let us know asap. Please ensure you have the email address sales@total-eminence.co.uk unblocked for your email providers spam settings. Failure to complete the checkout process and personalisation collection can result in delays in processing your order. This is the only method we can accept personalisation details, ebay messages and notes left on paypal payments will not be accepted. Please read the instructions at the top of the engraving instructions page before providing your information.  Important and helpful information is contained there.
