Ordering information
We recognize that customers have different needs. Therefore,
there are four ways to order from Metropolitan Trophies:
1. Through this site, which is our recommended approach
as it greatly reduces engraving & shipping errors
due to retyping data. Simply follow the gold text instructions
and complete your club details.
2. E-mail us if you have a custom item or a specific
question. Simply use our shopping cart, copy the info
to a document and then attach the document to an e-mail.
3. Fax us if you prefer not to send payment details
to the internet. Simply use our shopping cart and print
the completed order.
4. Telephone us on (08) 9244 1300 if you feel more
comfortable talking to someone in person, however, we
don't take engraving details over the telephone to reduce
typing errors.
5. We will email you an artwork proof for any award
before production.
6. Once artwork has been confirmed an order can't be
canceled. The customer is required to pay when the order
is collected.

Lead time for Trophies
We recommend that you order your trophies at least four
weeks before the delivery date. At this early stage we
only need trophy number estimates as most clubs need more
time to confirm actual numbers with coaches. For your
convenience, the engraving can be left as late as one
week before the delivery date. This allows us time to
order componentry and arrange artwork for personalized
centers.
It is very important to double-check your order
before you send it because we may be unable to make
changes to an order which is required within one week.
If you need to add additional items, you can place a
new order for the additional items that you need to
order.
We double check every order as part of our guarantee

you receive the order up to one week before the presentation
date, so you can triple check it.
