3. Payment. We ask for
payment with order, preferably in the form of a cheque, unless a credit account
has been specifically agreed in writing beforehand (businesses with clear
and traceable credit history only). Upon receipt of your cheque, work will
start immediately, although the cheque must clear before goods are dispatched.
We also offer an excellent instant online credit card processing system, which
is via a link we can email to you, or directly from the 'Instant Quote' page.
This is processed securely by securetrading.com, one of the largest and most
secure and efficient firms in the business. For certain jobs we ask to reserve
the right to pass the charges onto you for this, as profit margins can be
very slim. Charges may range from 2.7% to 3.5% of the transaction value depending
on the card. We will not normally charge you for using this facility, and
would always agree this with you first in any event. Sorry, but we don't accept
American Express.
4. Licensing. You may
be required to apply for an MCPS license (Mechanical Copyright Society) if
your material is owned by a third party. You will need to pay any license
fees before issuing that license. If, however, all material is your own, we
are the only manufacturer in the UK that can carry out the manufacturing with
a simple statement from you in the form of an email or letter. We still recommend
that you register your work with the MCPS though, as this protects you in
the future and is free of charge. There's a link to their website in our links
section. For data discs (Rom and DVD) you must ensure that the necessary licenses
are in place. If, for example, you were to put a copy of Quicktime on your
disc, even though this is available as a free download, you will still need
to obtain a license from Apple. Other materials for data discs are subject
to the same simple procedure as audio, provided it is all your own material.
5. Terms and Conditions.
All orders are accepted subject to our terms and conditions.
This is the boring small print that we often ignore, but please do read it.
It's not there to trick you or give us an unfair advantage, and is written
in plain English to make them as open as possible. Media Sourcing operates
a very fair and transparent business, so if there's anything we haven't made
completely clear, or you don't agree with, please do ask
us.
