  • Refund Policy for Custom Imprinted Products:
    • Our pencils are available in a wide range of colors, but not every shade. We guarantee pencils will be the color you ordered; black, yellow, orange, etcetera. The colors displayed on your monitor are for your reference only. Pantone® colors vary greatly from monitor to monitor and it is impossible to display a true color match. For this reason we cannot offer refunds for color variance. If pencil colors are critical, Pantone® color matching is available for an extra fee. For accurate Pantone® Color Standards, please refer to the current edition of the Pantone® Color Formula Guide.
