All I had to to do ten coaster with image and write Beddington Inn, beautful colours image in middle but did'nt notice I wrote Bedddington Inn. We check four times and we always check after first coaster for spelling and errors. How do they slip by :oops: . Customer happy he getting 10 new coaster and I gave the the 3D :lol: I'm so glad that they were'nt mugs got enough of my mistake from the early days, (Have you notice they never break ) Still not as bad as my friend engraved 3 p in happy and they have more checks than us, exensive mistake for them it was on 40 hip flask. :roll: Am I the only one :?:

Did a large batch of t-shirts last year using digital transfers. It was for a charity walk, a little boy had died. His name was Marc but I never checked the spelling and assumed it was Mark, customer had mentioned this.......Had to make a small vinyl overlay to cover it up. Worked a treat but I felt a fool and had to reduce the costs!
This is one of the reasons why I prefer to get the customer to supply their own design.
If I'm modifying their design or adding to it or creating one myself, I always email a sample picture to the customer for approval before I begin.
In the instance of an order that could result in a costly mistake (such as a bunch of mugs), I always send the first printed mug to the customer to approve before I continue. Yes, it does cost an extra couple of quid in postage, but I'd rather pay a couple of quid than risk much, much more.

I did email it but I still added a extra d, and still got it wrong

So did they approve it with the extra "d" in it, or did you change it after they approved it?

Ive just done 5000 flyers and spelt "Discount" wrong!..."Dicount" :(
Luckily the customer saw the funnt side and still accepted them, although he did sign off the proof, none of us noticed until a 3rd party pointed it out.
And I ve lost count of how many mug designs ive printed upside down :(
Dvae ;)
i`ve spelt farther many times instead of father

I sent it with two d's but for some unkown reason when I went to press them I added another d. How bizarre is that. Must have had a mind meld.
