 FAQs

What is Print on Demand?

Print on demand is an order fulfillment process where graphics printing and product assembly occur AFTER, not before, the order is placed. This process allows a designer to create a collection without incurring excess production waste from unsold products, and without having to utilize storage space.

*The print on demand order fulfillment process allows small businesses to grow and expand without excess overhead.*


Which Bright and Shiny NYC items are printed on demand?

All products besides handmade items are print on demand

Okay, so how does print on demand ordering work?

Once a print on demand order is placed from Bright and Shiny NYC’s Printify print on demand shop, it is routed to the nearest fulfillment center to you for processing. The completed order is then packaged and shipped (or “drop shipped”) to you directly from the fulfillment center. Note: multiple items may arrive from different fulfillment centers.

*Bright and Shiny NYC sources from United States based companies for its products*



Everything’s made one at a time?!?!? So how long does it take to arrive?

In general, the print on demand process will take longer to receive than a mass made product. Your product is from a small business run by an independent artist, and is made especially for you, so please factor in turnaround times of 5 to 21 business days depending on the product and time of the year. Use the contact form below for questions regarding a specific product’s production time and shipping options.


Can I order in bulk?

Some items can be purchased in bulk. Use the contact form in the sidebar for specific requests.


Is it environmentally friendly?

In addition to print on demand being inherently less wasteful than mass production, Bright and Shiny NYC endeavors to use the most eco-friendly materials and printing processes available, including locally sourced materials.

Print on Demand Return Policy:

Bright and Shiny NYC encourages you to think before you buy! Damaged or misprinted items can be exchanged or returned for a full refund within 30 days after arrival, however, because print on demand orders are custom made, no other returns will be accepted. Returns are handled by the manufacturer. Please use the information included with your delivery receipt for return instructions.
