Q: I
am trying to purchase from
your website but it is not
accepting my credit card.
What do I do?
A: Paypal
is sometimes very precise in
their (verified) address
requirements. Check to make
sure that you are entering
your billing address when
prompted. And then if you
need to choose a different
mailing address, it should
allow you to do so after
entering billing address.
Q: What’s
your return policy?
A: We
thoroughly check our
merchandise for defects.
However, if you think there
is a defect with the item
purchased or you believe
there was mistake with your
order, you can contact us
and return your item for an
exchange. Exchanges are
accepted up to 30 days from
purchase date. Because
everything is custom made
and made to your
specifications, we are
unable to accept
returns/exchanges because
you placed an incorrect
order or changed your mind.
Q: How
long will it take to get my
order?
A: On
average, letters take only 2
business days to produce,
and 2-7 business days to
ship depending on where you
live.(We ship from Arizona).
We are unable to give you an
exact date of when your
order will arrive. Group
orders may take longer.
Please contact us for more
information on larger order
production and delivery
times. In rare cases, there
may be a backorder (or
discontinue) on a patterned
fabric. If this is the case,
you will be notified and
given the option to wait,
change your order, or cancel
your order.
Q: Can
you tell me the status of my
order?
A: We
only send out emails if
there is a concern/problem
with your order. If you
have not heard from us, it
means everything went well
with your order and your
letters were mailed 2
business days (or less) from
the day you placed your
order.
Q: How
will my letters arrive?
A: Each
letter you choose will
arrive to you in 2 pieces.
For example, “A” would
arrive as a foreground piece
and background piece.
Ironing instructions are
included in your
confirmation email which
details out how to iron
them.
Q: Do
I need to sew the letters?
A: The
adhesive provides a strong
bond so you should be able
to wear/use the item once or
twice before sewing. If you
plan to launder the item,
you risk the letters fraying
or falling off if not sewn.
Q: My
letters melted OR my letters
melted to my iron. Something
is wrong with your product.
A: We
are sorry this happened to
you. However, we are unable
to control the end user of
the iron as well as the
temperature and quality of
the iron you are using. If
your letter melted to your
iron, it means you ironed it
with the adhesive face up.
If it melted in general, it
means your iron was too hot
and/or ironed it for too
long. We have ironed
thousands of letters and
have never had any melting
or singeing issues. Please
refer to your email ironing
instructions as well as
ensure your iron is
calibrated and you are
following the temperature
and time guidelines. We can
not be held responsible for
errors in application .
Q: Do
you offer an overnight
shipping option?
A: Due
to the exorbitant cost and
pressure it creates, we do
not offer this service. The
quickest service we offer at
this time is Priority Mail.
USPS estimates a 2-3
business ship time. When
judging your timing, you
also need to factor in our
production time which is 1-2
business days. When we see
a Priority order come
through, we do our best to
get it out within 1 business
day, but you always want to
estimate for worst case
scenario.
Q: What
is an e-check? Why does it
take longer to receive my
order?
A: When
paying through Paypal, you
can either pay with a credit
card or your bank account (echeck).
A credit card clears
instantly and your order is
processed right away. If you
pay with an echeck, it can
take up to 4 business days
to clear. Your order will be
processed after we receive
notification from Paypal
that it has cleared. If you
need your order processed
right away, we suggest you
pay with a credit card.
Q: There’s
a fabric I would like for my
letters but you don’t carry
it. Is there any way you can
get it?
A: Please
contact us and tell us the
material/pattern of fabric
you are looking for. We will
check with our vendors to
see if they carry it. If
they do, then you’re in
luck.
Q: Do
you offer your Greek letters
in another size?
A: At
this time, the Greek
alphabet font is only
offered in 2" and 4" sizes.
Q: Do
you offer discounts for
group orders?

love group orders and are
more than happy to offer you
a discount. A minimum of 8
items qualifies as a group
order. Please contact us for
an accurate quote.
Q: Why
was my credit card
charged/check cashed even
though I haven’t received my
item yet?
A: Everything
we produce is custom-made,
based on your instructions.
Therefore, all payments are
processed immediately, so we
can begin work on your
order.
Q: I
placed an order 2 weeks ago
but haven’t received it and
never received any
confirmation emails. Where
is it?
A: Chances
are you never fully executed
the order. There is 1 final
step in placing an order
that customers occasionally
miss. After entering your
credit card and clinking
“Review and continue”, you
then have to click “Confirm
and pay” on the final page.
Q: Can
my order be shipped to a
university address?
A: Most
definitely. Many of our
customers are college
students, and we realize
that we are many times
shipping to dorm and
apartment addresses. It is
your responsibility to make
sure that you can receive
packages on your end. You
are responsible for keeping
your mailing address up to
date. We are not responsible
for items returned to us
because you are on a school
vacation, you have gone home
for the summer, or you have
moved but never updated your
address. If your item(s) is
returned to us because of an
incorrect address on your
part, you will be charged
the postage to re-ship.
Q: What
is Tackle Twill?
A: Tackle
Twill is a process, not a
product! Tackle twill is the
coordinated sewing of
specialty letters, numbers,
and appliqué shapes. It is a
labor intensive process that
takes skill, time, and
equipment to do properly.
Traditionally, 100%
polyester twill is the
fabric of choice.
