FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

You say each one will be signed and numbered. What do you mean by “signed”? Will it say, for example “To John”?
These are signed which means that J. Michael Straczynski is personally signing his full name to each one. The term to describe the “To John” scenario is inscribed. These are not sent inscribed.

Can I get it inscribed?
Yes and no. The print you receive will simply be signed as we just noted. It’s not possible to have them inscribed before they are framed and shipped.

That said, when JMS is making a personal appearance, you are welcome to bring your print and JMS will happily (even joyfully) inscribe it on the back. The entire back is sealed with a white fiberboard-type material that makes it especially well-suited for signing.

What if I don’t like it once I get it?
You have an unconditional money back guarantee for 30 days. In other words, you have 30 days from the day you receive it to return it for a full refund. And you can return it for any reason.

Now there's an important caveat here: we do plan to continue to issue Declaration of Principles related merchandise (cards, t-shirts and the like), and it’s possible there could even be another signed and numbered Declaration of Principles print way, way, down the road with a completely different design. But this look, this feel, this rendition or anything that looks even remotely similar is kaput and will never be seen again on a framed print. And you know JMS. When he says something is done it's done.

When will I know what number I got?
Despite all our technology the candid answer is when you open the shipping box. Because folks can cancel orders, have credit card issues and the like we can’t be certain exactly what number you are going to get until it is actually shipped, except that it will be numbered between 451-500.

Will I be able to place my order by phone?

Yes. If you win a print and you prefer to order by phone, just let us know when you reply to your "You've Won" email.

What if mine is damaged in shipping?
Because of its collectible nature you will have to send it back for replacement. We do this with a pre-paid slip so there is no cost to you.

Depending on the nature of the damage, we will handle it accordingly. If the mat (which is where the print is actually signed and numbered) was damaged we will destroy the mat and have JMS re-sign a new one with the same number you had. In other words there is no risk of losing your priority numbering just because of some ill-luck.

Now that you know the fix, it might also be helpful to know that damage is highly unlikely. The prints are specifically packed for damage control and the actual contents – plexiglass and metal – are indestructible. Of course with UPS you never know.

What if mine is lost in shipping?
Every order will be tracked and we have a remedy in place on the off, off chance UPS confirms that the package is lost for good, which, even for UPS, is extremely rare.

Is it ready for hanging when I receive it? Do I have to put any hardware on the back?
No. Have a hammer and nail ready when UPS arrives, because it’s ready to hang.

Since it’s going to be a little over a week before my print is shipped, when will my credit card actually be charged? When the print actually ships. Your card will be authorized when the order is received, but not actually charged until the print has literally left the building and is on it’s way to you. When you say that after this 500 print run it’s gone...what do you really mean? Sometimes collectibles are re-issued but just not numbered or signed. We mean that this iteration is done. Finito. Never again. Ever.
