All of our printing is offset printing on presses. We do not use copy machines.

Our prices are complete, and they are for exact quantity. We suggest that when you are comparing costs, you watch out for hidden charges in some printers' quotes; these may be listed as administrative fees, proofs, proof shipment, 10% overs, and other tricks that make it tough to see the actual cost.

These prices are valid for 30 days. The price quoted includes our 3% discount for paying in cash. We accept Visa and Mastercard; the discount does not apply for credit card charges. This quote does not include sales tax or charges for author alterations.

Thank you for your interest in Signature Book Printing. I hope we'll be able to work with you on this project.
