In such cases we'll negotiate this with you before you
commit yourself to using our services.

And here's the fine print . . .

  1. The above rates apply when you send (and we return) your material by e-mail, or when you deliver and collect your material yourself. We'll add cost-recovering charges to the invoice if we must collect it, or if we must return it to you by mail, fax, courier, or in person. If we need to print or photocopy your document in order to work with it, we'll add a charge of $0.50 per page to the invoice.

  2. If you require immediate and urgent attention to your document, we reserve the right to add a 50% surcharge to the normal rate.

  3. When you get our invoice, please pay by foreign bank draft in South African Rands. Contact our accounts section for more information.

  4. We reserve the right to change our rates, should increased costs or other factors make that necessary. This page will always reflect our current rates. Refer to the "Last updated" tag below.
