Terms & Conditions

Agreement: Each accepted order shall constitute a legally binding contract between the Supplier and Customer and will be referred to as an Order.  Based on the Order, the Supplier will supply products and services, including but not limited to: printing, packaging, replication of vinyl records, mastering services, fulfillment and distribution.

Payment: Unless you have a pre-existing payment arrangement with MRP through a label, 100% payment is due up front before MRP will proceed with cutting the lacquers or printing any artwork. Over/Under runs will be plus or minus 10% of the amount ordered. Shipping costs are paid by the customer.  All major credit cards are accepted (with a 4% surcharge), as well as checks and PayPal accounts.  You are billed for the actual finished quantities (which means we may send you another invoice at the end of your order or send you a reimbursement check).  The Supplier will not proceed with future orders if there is a balance on a customer’s account from a previous order.

Delivery: Supplier will do everything in it’s power to meet the agreed upon delivery date with the Customer.  Delivery dates are approximate and subject to variations customary in the industry.  Unforeseen delays may occasionally occur.

Returns: Merchandise may be returned only with the prior written consent of the Supplier.  Returned items must also reference the Supplier’s invoice number.  Returned items will be replaced or a credit will be given to the Customer.

Severability: Should any clause or provision of this Agreement be construed by a court to be void, invalid, or unenforceable, such decision shall affect only the clause or provision interpreted.  It is the express intent of the parties that the court construe said clauses and provisions so that their meaning and intent be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted under the law.
