Order Policy

At Meduso Studio, every order is custom-made with care and precision. To ensure efficiency and the best possible quality, the following order guidelines apply:

​Screen Printing Minimums:

  • 1–3 Colors: Minimum of 12 pieces
  • 4 Colors: Minimum of 24 pieces
  • 5 Colors: Minimum of 36 pieces
  • 6–7 Colors: Minimum of 72 pieces

Artwork Requirements:

All artwork must be provided in a high-resolution or vector format (.AI, .EPS, .PDF preferred).Please note: Simply saving a non-vector image in one of these formats does not make it a vector file. Your design must be originally created or converted using vector-based software such as Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW.

​Mockups & Approval:

A digital mockup will be sent to the client within 1–3 business days after the order is received and the deposit is made.

A deposit is required before we begin processing your order and creating the mockups. No changes can be made once the final design is approved. Production will only begin after approval and deposit are confirmed.

Color Disclaimer:

Colors shown in digital mockups may vary slightly from the final printed product due to screen display differences and material types. For precise color matching, we recommend clients refer to a Pantone Matching System (PMS) color book to select and confirm exact ink colors.

​Turnaround Time:

Typical production turnaround is 5–7 business days, starting from the date of final design approval and deposit confirmation.This estimate does not include shipping time, which will vary based on the shipping method selected by the client.

Payment

At Meduso Studio, we aim to make the payment process as simple and transparent as possible.

Accepted Payment Methods:

We accept the following forms of payment:

  • Credit & Debit Cards
  • Zelle
  • Venmo
  • Cash App
  • Cash

​Deposit Requirement:

A 50% deposit is required to begin processing your order and generating mockups. The remaining balance must be paid in full before production or at the time of pickup/delivery, depending on your arrangement.

​Additional Charges:

Vector Fee:If your artwork is not provided in a usable vector format, a vector fee starting at $30 will be charged. The final cost depends on the complexity of the design.

  • Vectoring may take up to 5 business days.
  • Once vectored, your design will be stored in our system for future orders — this is a one-time fee as long as no major changes are needed.
  • If significant design modifications are requested later, a new vector fee will apply.
  • Customers who pay a vector fee are entitled to receive a copy of their vectored artwork upon request.

Rush Fees:

Rush orders requested outside of our standard turnaround time may incur additional charges based on project scope and urgency.

​Production will not begin until the required deposit and design approval are confirmed.

Refund & Return

At Meduso Studio, we take pride in delivering high-quality custom products. Due to the nature of personalized items, our refund and return policy is as follows:

Custom Orders:

All custom and personalized items are non-refundable and non-returnable. Once an order is approved and enters production, it cannot be canceled or modified.

Mockup Approval Responsibility:

A digital mockup is provided prior to production. It is the client’s responsibility to carefully review all design details, including spelling, placement, size, and color.

  • If an issue arises due to a client oversight after mockup approval, Meduso Studio will not be held responsible, and no refund or reprint will be issued. 

Production Errors:

If a mistake occurs on our end after mockup approval, the client is entitled to a full refund or reprint, provided the defective items are returned.

Damaged or Defective Items:

We will fully cover the cost of reprinting any items that are damaged (e.g., holes, stains, incorrect sizes) due to production error. Clients must report such issues within 3 business days of receiving their order and provide clear photographic evidence.

Shared Responsibility:

If an issue is the result of both client and studio error, we are always open to fair negotiation, which may include a partial refund, discount, or credit toward a future order.

  • Rush orders are accepted on a case-by-case basis and subject to approval.
