   PLEASE READ YOUR PROOF CAREFULLY!
3. Confirmation of Order: Where a client has been provided with a 'print-ready proof for viewing and subsequently confirms acceptance of that proof by email, fax or otherwise in writing, Earth First will deem such acceptance to be confirmation of the order. Earth First will not be responsible for any errors in proof reading that the client may make. " Friendly Warning: Incorrect reading of proofs is the most common error we encounter."
   
4. Cancelled Orders: Where a client cancels an order after confirmation of the order but prior to any payment being made, the client will be liable for payment in full as if the order had not been cancelled. Where a client cancels an order prior to confirmation but where Earth First has expended resources including time and/or the procurement of materials or product specific to that order the client will be liable to compensate Earth First for all costs incurred and will otherwise protect Earth First against any loss including loss of profit.

Any claims for credit or refund must be lodged in writing with Earth First within seven days of goods being received.
   
6. Prompt Payment: Payment is due in full on the day an order is confirmed. Where a client has repeat business with Earth First, and that client has demonstrated prompt payment on repeat business, Earth First may, at its discretion, review and extend it's terms of credit to that client by allowing payment 7 or 14 days after confirmation of order or by the 20th of the month as the case may be.
   
7. Late Payment: All costs incurred in the recovery of any overdue amount including debt recovery and/or collection commissions, court and legal fees will be payable in full by the client/debtor. Interest may also be charged on all overdue amounts at the rate of 1.5 percent per month.

Half-tones and detailed graphics may reproduce less than perfectly on some products and we will take no responsibility for such imperfections other than where we have made recommendations to the customer on our proof sheet.
