Our operation is primarily set up for larger production. Smaller orders are both time and labor intensive. Smaller orders have a higher cost due to the amount of labor and time put into setting up the presses for shorter print runs.

Pricing decreases significantly as quantity increases.

Garment colors are subject to availability (See Garment Availability Policy). Ink Color(s) must stay the same for each color garment or be subject to an Ink Change Fee (See Ink Change Policy). Garment color changes are subject to approval and can be declined based on design.  

Outside Garments
nyceCo LLC does not accept outside garments.

Oversized Garments
Sizes XSmall-XLarge are included in your order at the standard per shirt price. Shirts sized 2XLarge-5XLarge are subject to an additional fee. Oversized shirts sized 2XLarge-5XLarge are subject to vendor availability. The artwork print is sized for the smallest shirt size in your order and printed on all shirt sizes.

Garment Availability
nyceCO LLC is not be responsible for items that are out of stock. All purchasing of products is done on an order-by-­order basis. Very few goods are stocked at our facilities. We do our best to provide you with an accurate inventory prior to your order being placed, but we cannot “hold” goods from the time you receive a quote to the time you actually place the order. Should items become out of stock, we will do our best to find a replacement and get it approved by you prior to using it for your order. nyceCO LLC reserves the right to substitute garments of comparable brand and/or color when client’s request is unavailable. Pricing will not be adjusted if a substitution is made.

Garment Subjectivity
NyceCO LLC will not be responsible for you not liking the garment printed on or the printed artwork. We do our very best to make sure you have selected a garment that you will expect and matches your needs, but we also expect you to do some research on your own. We recommend you confirm and verify garment specs on the manufacturers' site to ensure the garment is going to fit as you intend. If there's any doubt about whether you'll like the selected garment, we recommend ordering a blank sample first. Please keep in mind that ordering blank samples will push back the turnaround time. Blank samples are available for purchase but are not refundable or transferable towards a full production run.

Under/Over Run Allowance
Custom hand inked screenprinting is an art form. We do our very best to deliver, at minimum, the ordered quantity for each and every size on your order. However, printing mistakes happen, screens break on press, shirts arrive with holes or stains from the manufacturer (See Manufacture Defects Policy). For that reason, we have an under/over run allowance. This is simply an acceptable margin of error.

Standard Under/Over Allowance: 5%

All orders within the Under/Over Run Allowance of the ordered quantity will be considered completed and acceptable for delivery. For this reason, we highly recommend you order extra garments for each size if you need a guaranteed quantity. nyceCO LLC will not be responsible for profit loss on under runs. If requested, in the event of an under run greater than our Under/Over Run Allowance, we will reprint the remaining quantity. In the event of an under run less than our Under/Over allowance, if a reprint is requested, client is subject to a press reset fee of $50 per print color/screen.

Under/Over Run Allowance on Contract Orders is calculated by number of impressions on the order, not the number of pieces.


Manufacture Defects
nyceCO LLC is not responsible for manufacturer defects such as garment color inconsistencies, mislabeled sizes, loose stitching, label inconsistencies, or other garment defects. We do our best to inspect the garments as they are printed, but we cannot guarantee each garment. We highly recommend ordering 5% extra of each size to avoid the possibility of the aforementioned issues. See Over/Under Run Allowance Policy.

Seam, Collar, and Zipper Printing
We do our very best to produce the best looking prints any time we pull a squeegee. However, printing on or over any seams, collars, pockets, zippers or otherwise is subject to distortion, print imperfections, and/or other small inconsistencies. These are all considered acceptable goods and will not be considered misprints.
