CANCELLATIONS

Once an order is placed for a custom item or a personalized item it may not be cancelled. We find it necessary to enforce this policy because the items are manufactured based on your request and are ordered or made specifically for you. All personalized items are non-returnable, non-exchangeable and cannot be cancelled once your order has been placed with the Manufacturer. Of course if we have made an error on your order, we will replace the item at no charge to you.
