1.1 COOL GORILLA TEES Return Policy
We are proud of the level of quality we produce across all of our printing avenues. Having said that, we are only human and every once in a while we might have a printing hiccup or miss a manufacturing error in a garment. On the very odd occasion that this happens, we are happy to reprint your item. Before we can do that though there are a few steps you need to take. Firstly, read the all-important ‘What can be Returned’ list to determine whether or not your item is indeed returnable:

What can be returned?
Returns are only accepted if within 14 days of receipt of the purchase
Only damaged/faulty garments, or faulty prints can be returned/exchanged
Please note all returns must be in original packaging and have no noticeable signs of wear or makeup stains
Note: Shipping fees are non-refundable.

Sadly, we can not accept returns for:
Change of mind
Spelling, punctuation or grammatical errors made by the customer
Shipping or stock delays
Unsatisfaction with different colours profiles between different garments 
Incorrect product selection by the user - it is the responsibility of the customer to check size charts, style, garment thickness and colours before confirming and paying for their order either online or via our quoting system
Design errors introduced by the customer in the design process
Variances in the garment size of +/- 2cm (supplier allowance)
Unsatisfaction with print size - remember that the mockup garment you are designing on represents a full-size range, so be sure to measure out your print size on one of your own tees before uploading it to the design tool to ensure you are happy with how big it is going to print 
Inferior quality or low-resolution of uploaded images

The difference between printing on white garments and coloured garments: 
In order to be able to print on a coloured garment, we first have to spray the garment with a pre-treatment solution that allows the white ink something to stick to.  We then lay down a nice thick layer of white ink, followed by the colour layer.  Because of this, colours do tend to look much brighter than when printing on a white garment.  When we print on a white garment, the material absorbs the ink which means it loses a little bit of vibrancy.  Please ensure you call our sales team to discuss these differences and request samples before placing a larger order.  

The difference between our screen and your screen:
Now is a good time to point out that everyone’s monitors are different, which means that there are going to be small differences in the colours that you see on your screen and what our team is looking at.  In the same way, there is going to be a variation in what you see on screen to the actual garment or print colour.  For this reason, we do not guarantee colour matching on apparel or printing as it is just not possible for us to do so. We always recommend ordering a sample of both the garment and print if the colours are vital to your order. 

It is also important to note all orders placed via the online store are digitally printed, and that there is a difference in the finished product of a screen-printed garment, and a digitally printed garment.  Digital printing utilises water-based inks that are cured directly into the material of the garment, rather than sitting on top.  Due to this, digital printing is not as vibrant as screen printing and does not last as long. Digitally printed garments will begin to fade within the first few washes and continue to fade over time.  Digital printing is an excellent way to print a sample of a larger screen print order, as it will help to determine the position and size of your artwork.  It is important to remember that it is not possible to replicate the vibrancy, and density of a screen print using our direct-to-garment inks.  

Please examine your designs carefully and correct any mistakes prior to placing your order. In an effort to keep costs down and pass substantial savings along to our customers, COOL GORILLA TEES does not proof documents created by its customers prior to processing.  When in doubt, call us ...we're super friendly and helpful.

COOL GORILLA TEES is happy to offer our customers the opportunity to create a new income stream via our Affiliate Store service.  All fees are paid to Deco Network by COOL GORILLA TEES, which means this service is free to our users!  

As this is a free service - it is up to the User to navigate their way through the store setup process and technical support will be limited.  We recommend the use of the 'Startup Wizard' to help guide you through creating your store.  It is not possible for us to notify affiliate stores of stock issues, updates and changes so please regularly check what is available via COOL GORILLA TEES main website.
