Payment & Refunds
Prices are calculated in USD, and Payment is taken upfront unless an otherwise agreed-upon payment plan with reasonable terms is established before Payment.Once an inquiry is submitted and accepted, an invoice of the approximated price will be sent via Paypal that is sent to the Client. The Client must pay in full or the agreed-upon amount within 48 hours. If the invoice goes on longer than a week without contact, the Artists reserves the right to cancel the invoice and drop the Client's submission form. The Client will then lose their place in the queue and must reapply when the Artists are available.However, if this is repeated behavior, the Client will be summarily blocklisted and refused further service with the Artists.The Client may not send any unprompted, unsolicited, or impromptu payment directly to the Artists. Any such payments will be refunded aside from the fees taken from Paypal.Work will commence once the invoice is paid or the amount of the agreed-upon payment plan has been met. Only in this instance will work begin without the invoice paid in full.The Client may request to cancel their commission.If the Client cancels before any work has commenced, they will receive a full refund.If the Client cancels the commission in progress, they will receive a partial refund based upon the progression and time endeavored into the piece. The refund, however, will be at most 60% of the total amount. This is to decrease the financial instability of the Artists' standing as cancellations cause an inconvenience to us as we have given time, effort, and our selection of your submission. Therefore, please be responsible before commissioning the Artists.If the Client attempts to cancel near the end or upon completion, they are not eligible for a refund and will be placed on a block list.Disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated; keep it professional, or your commission will be subject to cancellation. The Artists reserves the full right to refuse service to the Client that violates this.
