All our products are carefully packed to make sure they cope with the demands of the postal network and reach you in tip-top condition. Your order will usually be dispatched within 2 working days of payment. If there is the slightest chance of delay, we’ll inform you immediately by e-mail.
UK deliveries
Postage is calculated for you at the check out. We send using the Royal Mail ‘1st Class Signed For’ service, so a signature will be required when you receive your parcel. If the package isn’t signed for, it will be returned to your local depot for collection. If it is not collected within one week, it will be returned to us. We are happy to resend items but would ask you to pay for the postage costs of resending the parcel.
As a guide, UK Signed For deliveries take 2-3 days (though can take longer at Christmas).
International deliveries
We are happy to send our products around the world. Available countries can be selected in the checkout, where shipping costs are calculated for you. Please be aware that international deliveries may be subject to local import duties and taxes. These charges are beyond our control, and any extra cost needs to be covered by you, the customer.
As a guide, International Signed-For deliveries take 5-15 days.
All orders are processed in British Pounds Sterling.
Local pickup
If you would like to collect your order yourself from our printshop in Silverstone, Northamptonshire, great! Select ‘pickup’ in the checkout, and we’ll email you to arrange a time to pickup.
Unpacking your print
Every print is carefully checked before packing. When unpacking, be VERY CAREFUL and make sure your fingers are CLEAN and DRY. A3+ size prints are sent in tubes. To unpack, reach into the tube and GENTLY twist the print to make it smaller, then SLOWLY pull the print out from the centre. DO NOT pull at a corner as you will create creases. We are not responsible for prints damaged during unpacking.
Returns policy
If the goods arrive and are damaged or faulty please inform us within 48 hours and we will arrange a replacement.
If you’re returning your order for any other reason, under the Consumer Protection Distance Selling act you are entitled to a full refund if the item is returned in its original condition within seven days of receipt. Please send all returns back in their original packaging, state the reason for the return, and tell us whether you’d like a refund or exchange. Retain your proof of posting, as we cannot be held responsible for items that get lost or damaged in transit. Please allow us up to two weeks to process your refund or exchange.

Commissioning our services
Quotes
Estimates – We endeavour to provide accurate estimates based upon experience, but these costs may go up or down depending on a more detailed understanding of the full requirements.
Fixed quotes – Wherever possible we try to provide fixed costs for a piece of work or project. This gives you and us a clear idea of what work is required and how much it will cost.
All our prices are quoted excluding VAT. We are VAT registered, so VAT is charged in addition.
Payment schedule
We require 50% payment to commence each stage or listed item of work, with the remainder to be settled upon completion. The remaining 50% is due within 28 days. Please note that we will commence staged work only once any previous invoices have been settled.
Late payments
If the full payment is not paid within 28 days, a ‘late payment’ fee will be charged at a 5% rate of the unpaid invoice, along with a fixed sum for the cost of recovering a late payment under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998. This initial 5% will be added upon each recurring 28 day period until the full amount has been received.

If for any reason the project is cancelled after work has started, a cancellation fee based on the stage of projects completion shall be paid by the Client, and Beanwave Ltd retain ownership of all copyrights to the artwork.
