Do we have to pay for the books ahead of time?
Our terms for non-profit groups are 1/3 payment due in 30, 60 and 90 days. Individuals and businesses are required to pay 50% with order and the remaining 50% before shipment.
How much will the shipping costs be?
Each order and location varies, so we are not able to give you an exact shipping price. We will provide 3% additional books for FREE for you to sell to help cover the cost of shipping your books.
How fast can we expect our cookbooks once you receive our order?
Our average production time is 45 business days, with possible exceptions during our busy seasons. By using our Rush Order Service, we will ship your books in 30 business days from the day we receive your order and all materials. Rush Order Service must be reserved and will incur an additional cost.
Will I receive exactly the amount of books I order?
Possibly, but not likely. G&R reserves the right to overrun or underrun by 10% on all orders, which is a standard policy for printers. Since your book will go through many production stages where spoilage may occur, G&R will print more than your ordered number of cookbooks. Thus, you may receive more or less than the ordered number of books. You will be invoiced according to the actual number of books shipped, not including free books sent for freight allowance.
Can I submit my recipes online then mail my order form and artwork?
Of course! In fact, recipes, a completed order form and/or artwork can be submitted to G&R a number of different ways - via mail, fax or online (link to Contact Us page). You can easily complete our online order form then mail your artwork and recipes for G&R to type, or enter your recipes online then mail us your order form and artwork. Or choose to submit your entire order (recipes, order form and artwork) completely online or completely by mail. Orders will not be processed with G&R until all necessary elements (recipes, artwork and order form) are received by G&R.
Does G&R Publishing have a privacy policy?
We sure do. View our privacy policy here.
