FAQ – Gelandangan Marking Systems
💡 Getting a QuoteBefore you ask “How much for a stamp?”, please arm yourself with:
Prices start around $200 AUD and climb with size, detail, or exotic material choices. Turnaround is typically 3–4 weeks after payment clears — longer if the stars misalign. Good things (and precise stamps) take time. Be patient.
🖼️ Image RulesYour artwork decides whether your stamp looks crisp or cursed. Follow these sacred laws:
Black = sink into the material you stamp, White = the untouched surface of material you stamp.
Simple = cheaper and faster.
💰 Payment & 📦 Postage
I usually reply faster than Australia Post delivers — which, let’s face it, isn’t a high bar.

💡 Getting a QuoteBefore you ask “How much for a stamp?”, please arm yourself with:
- A clear black‑on‑white image of your logo (no photos, no blurry screenshots).
- The exact size you want — “medium” or “about yay big” doesn’t count.
- What you’ll stamp it on (steel? leather? unicorn hide?).
- Your postal address — because I can’t estimate shipping to “somewhere overseas.”

🖼️ Image RulesYour artwork decides whether your stamp looks crisp or cursed. Follow these sacred laws:
- NEVER send a photo. My software can’t read pixels wrapped around a coffee mug. If all you have is a photo, I can hire a graphic artist to redraw it (from $100–$500).
- Send exactly how you want it to appear. DO NOT mirror the image. If you do, congratulations — you just bought two stamps.
- Redrawing fees apply if the image isn’t usable. You’ll get it back looking better than your cousin’s tattoo.

💰 Payment & 📦 Postage

- Australian orders: Pay by direct bank deposit.
- Overseas orders: PayPal (+9%) or Telegraphic Transfer (+AU$25).
- Nothing moves until payment clears. No exceptions.
- Every parcel includes tracking and insurance — it keeps both of us sleeping well.
- 📬 Please include your postal address when asking for a quote.
- All items carry a 12‑month warranty against manufacturing defects.
- Not covered: beating it against harder metals, heating, quenching, over‑pressing, or turning it into a keychain.
- If something fails from my workmanship, I’ll fix or replace it.
- If it fails because you used it to stamp concrete — that’s on you.
- Double‑check your logo before I start. Custom jobs can’t be changed, cancelled, or refunded once ordered.
