QPB Laser Services (specific engraving details)
We are dedicated to customer service and satisfaction!
- Read here:  Customer Satisfaction & Proofs in One Day
*We  reserve the right to refuse work that is determined unsuitable or to be in bad taste. 

1. Conditions on completed laser engraved selections:
QPB Laser Services guarantees to complete every engraving per the customers pre-approved proof and specifications and that each engraving is processed by trained experience personnel using the best methods to produce the best possible results. Our proof approval process ensures that we get every engraving right!
All engraved selections made to order cannot be restocked. Engraved items that are completed to the customers approved proof and specifications will not receive a refund or exchange. Changes or modifications to an order after the order has been completed is not permitted. QPB Laser Services (QPBLS) may require proof of any errors or defects. It is not possible for QPB Laser Services to predict or warranty personal preference for items engraved per the customers approved proof and specifications.  QPBLS cannot ensure that engraving results will meet the customers expectations. This especially applies to engraved photographs because there are so many factors involved with engraving photos. These factors involve a  multiple of possible characteristics that we (QPBLS) have very little to no control over.  The customer assumes full responsibility for the accuracy of their their submitted information, to read the associated information pertaining to their engraving order and to ensure that the content provided to QPBLS is correct when placing the order and submitting the final approval of the proof.

2. All engravable stock items - prices includes the image processing, setup and engraving of one picture and any capable text in the price posted. We do not charge for extra letters / characters or lines of text! Just upload an  image and then on the order form there is a place to provide any text to included with  personalized engraving. There is no complicated calculations with detailed per character or per line cost. Some items may include extra engraving options for an additional cost. For collage engravings that involve more than one image to be processed, there is a $15.00 charge for each additional image. Digital graphics should be 300 dpi resolution and equal in print size to that of the desired size of the engraving.  We will look at the image uploaded to us to determine if meets requirements before processing. If we determine that it does not meet the requirements we will send a notification email. If the image needs a real simple fix we may do it free of charge. If the image requires extensive processing, graphic restoration work starts at $20.00 and up depending the time required to accomplish the work. We will determine and provide  the cost of such work for approval.  No work is done without approval first.

QPB Laser Services Website Orders  (Also: view this link "SSL & Customer Information".)
All orders  should be made using our online order forms. Our order forms are designed to provide every option available and the ease of browsing through each option at leisure to ensure selection accuracy. Ordering personalized items requires far too many details to be handled over the phone and would take as much as 4 times longer to accomplish on the phone than ordering  online using our order forms. Using the order form ensures that all information provided is exactly correct and is the way it is intended. Because of the many details and options required for personalized orders, we do not take any orders over the phone and therefore we do not staff for taking phone orders. We welcome inquiries - please see our contact information at the top of this page.

Ordering Process:
Please visit our QPB Ordering FAQ's  page for full details on our ordering process.

Order Confirmations & Proofs:
 ALL Internet orders that require a proof and confirmation before we can process the order. This process is to additionally protect us and our customers.  This is a FREE service that we offer our customers.  An Order Confirmation notification is emailed to customer to provide  a full review of order, the total cost and a Proof image of engraving layout. This provides customer with the ability to confirm that they are satisfied with the proof and  terms of their order.  A "Proof" is a black and white picture of what the engraving will look like. The proof approval process gives the customer complete control of their engraving layout, spelling, punctuation, spacing, etc.. The Order Conformation is sent once order is verified by us (usually within one work day. Monday thru Friday). All Order Confirmation & Proof require a response from the customer before any work will begin! Again, we will not process any order until we receive a confirmation approval first. This requires selecting the option, " I approve this order" on the online confirmation page.  Once approved, we will then process order ASAP with charges executed accordingly. Receipt of sale is provided with  order when shipped. We can not guarantee that all proofs will get sent out in one day though it is our intent to get every confirmation out within 24 hours of receiving it during regular business hours.

Simple instructions are provided in the confirmation email that explains the requirements of confirmation approvals. Approvals must be done via the email link provided.  Being an online business, the entire order process is only conducted online via email notifications and using our online approval links. We will not call a customer for compliance. If we do not receive a response after sending the first proof, we will send it one more time after a couple of days. If we do not receive any response within two days after second proof  is sent, the order may be cancelled.

Order confirmations and proofs for engravings are based on the initial details and information provided with the order. Confirmations and proofs take time to process. When we send out the first proof for approval, we anticipate request for changes for  such things as resizing a font or maybe repositioning of the artwork. But if customer decides  to make major changes such as submitting different text or a different picture in place of that originally submitted, they will be subject to a processing fee ranging from $15.00 to $30.00 based on the details and time required to re-process the new image and layout.

Note: The entire Order Confirmation & Proof process will add a couple days to the process before an order can be processed. 
All orders are scheduled into production in the order that we receive proof confirmations approvals and not based on when orders are placed.

Items posted as engraving included also are offered with no extra charges for additional letters or characters. This applies to an item as shown and displayed. For example: Stock items such as boxes that include engraving will be for one side, usually the top side, only. Any additional engraving will be subject to additional charges. Additional pictures or artwork will be subject to an $18.00 processing charge per instance. This charge maybe waived contingent upon quantity ordered.

Lead Time Policy:
Regular size orders for stock engravable items are almost always completed and shipped within 3 to 4 work days after we have the order confirmation approval. Order completion is dependant on order load, stock availability and size of order. During heavy order periods an average expected process time is approx. 5 working days. For all engraving request we ask as much lead time as possible to complete the order. In all cases, we do everything we can to get orders out as quickly as possible. *Some items are posted with specific lead times.

Large engraving orders and specialty items such as wooden nickels and jigsaw puzzles are usually completed within 5 to 10 working days (Monday to Friday) after we have received an  approved order, depending on order load and size of order. Purchaser will be notified via email if their order will exceed 10 working days prior to beginning work.

Rush order charge may apply during peek busy periods. This charge is relative to cost incurred to get the work done and is required to be paid in full before work begins. Rush orders on demand will only be entertained for "in stock item" orders. For 2 day rush orders add 25% and for next day jobs add 35%. These turn around times can only be reserved explicitly by QPB Engraving Services.

Keeping the schedule: When an order is placed with a set expectation date, the client is responsible to provide all details and graphics in a timely manner. In the event that a client does not provide details or graphics to QPB Laser Services in the time determined necessary to process the order on time, the client may be subject to charges for compensation of overtime hours required to complete the job on schedule.  All stock items are priced with laser engraving included which is based on running an order during regular hours of operation.  If customer supplies any inaccurate information that prevents QPB Laser Services from processing the order, the order will be rescheduled from the date that accurate information is obtained - regardless of previous scheduling commitments. QPB Laser Services cannot be held responsible for late orders caused by delinquent client responsibilities.
