By visiting our site and/or purchasing something from us, you engage in our “Service” and agree to be bound by all Terms, including additional policies referenced or linked throughout our website.
These Terms apply to all users, including browsers, customers, vendors, merchants, and contributors of content.
Please read all Terms carefully before using our site. By using this website, you agree to follow these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the website or any of its Services.

Section 1 — Online Store Terms
By agreeing to these Terms, you confirm that you are at least the age of majority in your state or region, or have given consent for your minor dependents to use this site.
You must not use our products for any unlawful or unauthorised purpose. You must not violate any laws in your jurisdiction, including but not limited to copyright laws.

Order Changes, Cancellations & Administration Fee
Laser Blanks does not accept any order changes, add-ons, cancellations or modifications once an order has been placed and paid for online.
In the event that a customer requests a discretionary cancellation, approval is entirely at the discretion of Laser Blanks.
All discretionary cancellations — including, but not limited to:
- change of mind
- duplicate orders
- incorrect address entry
- misunderstanding turnaround times
- ordering the wrong size, colour, shape or item
- no longer needing the item
will incur a 10% administration fee, calculated on the full order amount including shipping fees.
Custom Orders
Custom orders cannot be cancelled under any circumstances once production has begun, even if the order has not yet been dispatched. This includes any process involving personalised text, custom sizing, unique shapes, or one-off creations.
Bulk / Wholesale / High-Volume Orders
Bulk, wholesale, or high-volume orders cannot be cancelled once materials have been allocated or production has begun. These orders may have extended lead times and cannot be refunded due to customer error or change of mind.
Returns & Exchanges
Due to the nature of our products (acrylic, laser-cut, fragile, and often customised), Laser Blanks cannot accept returns or exchanges once a product leaves our premises, unless required under Australian Consumer Law.
We cannot accept returns for reasons including (but not limited to):
- change of mind
- colour not as expected due to screen variations
- ordering the wrong size, shape or thickness
- incorrect details entered during checkout
- incorrect personalised information provided
- purchasing duplicate items
- misuse or damage after delivery
Colour Variations, Material Notes & Swatches
Acrylic colours can vary between batches and may appear differently depending on lighting, photography, angles and screen displays. These differences are normal and are not considered faults.
Specific Colour Notes
- Navy Acrylic appears more like royal blue in natural or bright light.
- Lilac Sorbet is a very pale pastel lilac and can appear close to white depending on background and lighting.
Material Characteristics
- Mirror acrylic naturally shows micro-scratches and fine marks.
- Gloss acrylic may display light scuffs due to its reflective properties.
- Matte acrylic may contain slight texture variations.
- Colour shifts between batches are normal.
These characteristics are normal for acrylic materials and not considered defects.
Colour Swatches
For precise colour matching, Laser Blanks offers physical colour swatch sets available for purchase. Customers needing exact colour certainty (especially for branding, signage, client work or events) are strongly encouraged to order swatches before purchasing.
Cutting Tolerance
All acrylic products are laser-cut to industry-standard tolerances of ±1–2mm. This applies to:
- width
- height
- thickness
- hole placement
- shape outline
This tolerance is normal and not considered a defect.
Personalised Items & Customer Accuracy
All personalised products are created exactly as the customer enters them at the time of ordering.
Laser Blanks is not responsible for errors including:
- misspelled names
- incorrect dates
- wrong colours or fonts selected
- incorrect punctuation or symbols
- customer-provided design mistakes
No refunds or remakes can be offered for customer mistakes.
Misuse, Handling & Installation Responsibility
Laser Blanks is not responsible for misuse or damage that occurs after the product leaves our premises.
This includes damage caused by:
- bending or flexing acrylic
- dropping or impact
- heat exposure, moisture, or improper storage
