Full text reads
The Customer is Always Right*: *This quotation is commonly cited in an abbreviated form. In full it reads: ‘the customer is always right, in matters of taste.’ In other words, good service means letting your customer buy the jacket that makes them look ridiculous or the jeans that clearly don't fit, if that's what they want. It does not mean they are an expert in pricing, stock control, logistics, merchandising planograms, company policy vs retail law, or that they know with absolute certainty that there must be 'one out back.'

Shipping
Estimated production time:
2–5 working days
Estimated UK delivery:
2–4 working days after dispatch
Before your order begins its journey, each item is printed especially for you. Unlike mass-produced products, we only create your item once you've placed your order. This means production can take several working days before your parcel is ready to be shipped.
Once your order has been printed, it will be carefully packed and dispatched. Delivery times begin after your order has been produced, so your total delivery time includes both production and shipping.
We know waiting a little longer isn't always ideal, and we truly appreciate your patience. By producing items only when they're ordered, we avoid unnecessary overproduction and excess waste, making our process more environmentally responsible than traditional retail. It's a small change that helps reduce our environmental impact, and we're grateful you're choosing to support a more sustainable way of shopping.
Thank you for your understanding and for supporting a small business that values quality, thoughtful production, and sustainability.
