Section 01

Scope & Who This Policy Applies To

This Bulk & Wholesale Order Policy ("Policy") is issued by HRV Enterprises INC LLC, doing business as MyGradStoles ("MyGradStoles," "we," "us," or "our"), and applies to any order placed through mygradstoles.com involving multiple units of the same or related products — including group orders for a graduating class, department, honor society, or Greek chapter, institutional orders placed by a school or university, and reseller/stocking orders placed by retail stores.

This Policy supplements, and does not replace, our Custom & Personalized Order Policy, Payment & Security Policy, Returns & Refund Policy, Shipping Policy, Privacy Policy, and Terms & Conditions. Where a topic is addressed specifically for bulk/wholesale orders here, and only generally elsewhere, this Policy's terms govern for orders that qualify as bulk or wholesale under Section 3.

Who this Policy is written for

Class advisors and school administrators ordering for an entire graduating class; college and university departments; honor societies and Greek life chapters; parent-teacher organizations; and retail or campus bookstores looking to stock graduation stoles for resale all fall under this Policy. Individuals placing a single personalized order should refer instead to our Custom & Personalized Order Policy, though the pricing information in Section 3 applies to everyone.

Section 02

Products Available for Bulk Ordering

Every product category on mygradstoles.com is available for bulk and wholesale ordering. There is no separate "wholesale-only" catalog — the same stoles your customers browse individually are the ones your class, chapter, or store can order in quantity.

Graduation Stoles

Preschool & Kindergarten, Elementary & Middle School, High School, and University & College stoles, plus role-specific lines: Valedictorian, Salutatorian, Class Officer, First Generation, Nursing, Education, Engineering, and Pride Stoles.

Religious Stoles

Baptism and Choir stoles ordered in bulk for a congregation, choir, or ministry group, with the same denominational-accuracy care described in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy.

Custom Graduation Stoles

Our most popular bulk category — plain, trim, angled, and tapered finishes with embroidered or DTF-printed names, class years, and crests, individually personalized per student on the same roster order.

Blank Graduation Stoles

Plain Finish, Plain Finish with Trim, Angled Finish, Angled Finish with Trim, Classic Finish, Classic Finish with Trim, Tapered Finish, and Tapered Finish with Trim honor stoles — popular for retail stocking since they ship as ready stock rather than made-to-order.

Shop-By-Color Stoles

All 15 color-specific pages — Black, Blue, Gold, Lavender, Maroon, Orange, Pink, Purple, Red, White, Yellow, Emerald Green, Green, Hunter Green, and Lime Green — are available in bulk quantities as either blank stock or personalized product, depending on the line you select. Visit Shop By Color to browse.

Section 03

No Minimum Order & Wholesale Pricing Tiers

Unlike many stole suppliers, MyGradStoles does not require a minimum order quantity to access bulk pricing. Our wholesale discount is applied automatically as your quantity increases — you don't need to negotiate it or ask for a special code.

How Wholesale Discounting Generally Works

1–11 units
Standard Pricing
12–49 units
Bulk Tier Pricing
50–199 units
Volume Tier Pricing
200+ units
Wholesale / Custom Quote
Illustrative tiers, not a fixed rate card

The quantity bands above illustrate how our discount generally scales; the exact price break points and percentage savings depend on the specific product line, color, and finish you select, and are always shown to you before checkout or in your written quote — never estimated or hidden. For orders of 200+ units, contact us directly for a custom wholesale quote.

We also honor our advertised lowest-price guarantee for the exact pricing and quantity in effect on our site at the time your order is placed or your quote is issued.

Section 04

Sample Products Before You Commit

Committing to fifty or five hundred stoles is a real decision, so we make it easy to check fabric weight, stitching quality, and true color in person before you place a bulk order.

Contact our team at contact@mygradstoles.com or +1 (361) 228-4910 to arrange a sample of the color, finish, and trim combination you're considering. Sample products are treated as stock merchandise under our standard Returns & Refund Policy rather than the made-to-order rules that apply once your full bulk order enters production.

Section 05

How to Request a Bulk Quote

1

Tell Us What You Need

Visit our Bulk Order page, or contact us directly, with your product line, color, finish, approximate quantity, and target ceremony or delivery date.

2

We Return a Written Quote

Our team confirms unit pricing at your quantity tier, estimated production and shipping timeline, and any applicable rush option — in writing, before you commit to anything.

3

You Confirm & Choose Payment

Pay by card, PayPal, or Apple Pay at checkout, or request Purchase Order/net-terms payment for a verified institution (see Section 8).

4

Roster Submission & Master Proof

If your order includes individually personalized names, you submit your roster (Section 6) and we build a master digital proof for your review (Section 7).

Section 06

Roster & Name List Submission

Most bulk orders for Custom Graduation Stoles or Religious Stoles involve a different name, and sometimes a different honor designation, on each unit. Here's how we keep that process accurate at scale.

  • Submit your name/roster list as a spreadsheet (CSV or Excel) rather than a handwritten or scanned list — this substantially reduces transcription errors on our end.
  • Include exactly how each name should appear (capitalization, middle initials, suffixes, preferred names) — we reproduce your roster letter-for-letter as submitted.
  • If your order mixes standard sizing with honor designations (e.g., Valedictorian, Salutatorian, Class Officer), clearly flag which roster rows need which product line.
  • Late roster additions or spelling corrections submitted after the master proof has been approved and production has started are treated as a new, billable reprint request for the affected units only — see Section 13.
Accuracy responsibility for rosters

The same principle in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy applies per name on a roster: if a name is misspelled in the roster you submit, and that same spelling appears unchanged in the master proof you approve, a correction after production has begun is billable as a new order for the affected unit(s). We strongly recommend having a second person on your team proofread the full roster before approval.

Section 07

Master Proof & Approval Process

Bulk and institutional orders follow the same free-digital-proof safeguard as individual custom orders, adapted for group ordering.

A Single Master Proof

Unless individually personalized names are involved, one master proof showing the shared design (color, crest, trim, standard text) is sent to your authorized ordering contact — the school administrator, faculty advisor, or chapter officer — for approval on behalf of the group.

Roster-Based Orders

When individual names are involved, we verify every name on your proof against the roster you provided before sending it for your final sign-off, so you're reviewing a complete list rather than a single sample unit.

Approval binds the whole order

Written approval of the master proof (or roster proof) by your authorized ordering contact is treated as approval for the entire group order and authorizes production of every unit shown, consistent with the approval standard in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy. Please circulate the proof internally for review before replying "Approved."

Section 08

Purchase Orders & Net-Terms Payment

We understand schools and public institutions often need to pay by Purchase Order rather than a personal card, so we built that option directly into checkout.

Selecting Purchase Order at Checkout

Simply select "Purchase Order" instead of Credit Card/PayPal at checkout. We accept POs from approved businesses, institutions, and clients, generally subject to a quick verification step for new accounts.

W-9 & Vendor Documentation

A completed IRS Form W-9 for HRV Enterprises INC LLC is available for your procurement or accounts-payable department to download here, so you can complete your internal vendor-setup process without waiting on us.

  • An invoice is issued once your master proof (or roster proof) is approved and production is authorized, unless your specific PO agreement states an alternate schedule.
  • Net-terms payment (for example, Net 30) is available for verified educational institutions at our discretion; contact us before ordering to arrange this.
  • All other sections of this Policy, and our Payment & Security Policy, apply equally to PO-based orders.
Section 09

Sales-Tax Exemption for Institutions

Many public schools, universities, and registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations are exempt from sales tax on qualifying purchases in their home state.

  • Submit your state's sales-tax-exemption certificate to contact@mygradstoles.com before or at the time of your order so tax can be correctly excluded from an eligible invoice or checkout.
  • Many states that participate in the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement (SSUTA) accept the Streamlined Sales Tax Governing Board's Certificate of Exemption; states that do not participate in SSUTA generally require their own state-specific exemption form — let us know your state and we'll confirm which form applies.
  • An exemption certificate only removes tax that MyGradStoles would otherwise collect under Section 12–13 of our Payment & Security Policy; it does not affect Canadian GST/HST/import charges described in Sections 14–16 of that Policy.
  • We retain submitted exemption certificates only as needed to support that transaction and our own tax-filing recordkeeping obligations, consistent with our Privacy Policy.
Section 10

Deposits, Quote Validity & Firm Pricing

  • A written bulk quote from MyGradStoles is valid for 30 days from the date it is issued, unless a different validity period is stated on the quote itself. After that window, pricing, materials cost, and production lead time may need to be reconfirmed.
  • For most orders paid by card, PayPal, or Apple Pay at checkout, full payment is collected at the time of order, consistent with our Payment & Security Policy. For very large custom orders, we may offer a deposit-plus-balance structure instead — this will always be stated clearly in your written quote, including the deposit amount and when the balance is due.
  • Under the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC Article 2), which governs contracts for the sale of goods in all fifty states, a signed, written quote from a merchant offering to hold a price open for a stated time is treated as a "firm offer" for that period — this is the legal basis for our 30-day quote-validity commitment above.
  • If your institution's own purchase order form contains additional terms that conflict with this Policy or our quote, please flag them to us in writing before you submit the PO — under UCC § 2-207, our order confirmation and these published policies are the terms that govern the sale unless we expressly agree to your additional terms in writing.
Section 11

Production Time for Large Orders

Standard production for custom stoles is 5–7 business days after proof approval — but that estimate assumes a typical order size, and quantity is the single biggest factor that can extend it.

Plan ahead for large rosters

Orders in the hundreds of units, or with a fully individualized roster, should generally be placed at least 3–4 weeks before your target date to allow for roster verification, master-proof review, standard production, and shipping. If your ceremony date is close, contact us before ordering — we will tell you plainly whether standard or rush production can realistically meet your deadline, rather than accepting an order we can't fulfill in time.

Rush production (approximately 2 business days after approval, subject to order volume and design complexity) is available as a paid add-on for bulk orders — see our Custom & Personalized Order Policy, Section 7, for general rush terms, which apply to bulk orders as well.

Section 12

Shipping of Bulk Orders

Express

2–6 Business Days

Standard

6–9 Business Days

Economy

9–15 Business Days

  • Most bulk and institutional orders qualify for free standard shipping once the order subtotal exceeds $99, consistent with our sitewide shipping threshold.
  • Very large orders may ship in multiple cartons or on a pallet; we will confirm carton count and tracking for each shipment so you can plan receiving on your end.
  • We currently ship to the United States and Canada only; see our Shipping Policy for full carrier, customs, and delivery-address details, and Sections 14–16 of our Payment & Security Policy for Canadian tax and import-duty information relevant to institutional Canadian buyers.
  • Please confirm a shipping address capable of receiving a multi-carton delivery (e.g., a school receiving dock or main office) rather than an individual mailbox for large orders.
Section 13

Changes & Cancellations on Bulk Orders

Group orders involve more moving parts than an individual purchase, so here is how changes and cancellations are handled at scale.

Full Order Cancellation

The same 24-hour, pre-proof cancellation window described in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy applies to bulk orders: cancel within 24 hours of ordering and before any master proof or roster proof has been sent, and you receive a full refund. After that window, or once a proof has been sent, cancellation is handled at our discretion and may reflect design and roster-verification work already completed — we will always tell you plainly what applies to your order before finalizing a cancellation.

Partial Changes (Reducing Quantity, Roster Edits)

Before master-proof approval, you may adjust your roster or total quantity, and your invoice or charge will be updated to reflect the new total and any resulting change in your wholesale pricing tier. Once the master or roster proof has been approved and production has started, quantity reductions or roster removals for units already in production are not eligible for a refund, consistent with the made-to-order rule in Section 9 of our Custom & Personalized Order Policy — but a late roster addition can generally still be accommodated as a new add-on order.

Section 14

Returns, Reprints & Shortage Claims

Manufacturing at scale means an occasional unit-level issue is more likely than with a single order — we handle these quickly and specifically to the affected units, not the whole shipment.

SituationWho Is ResponsibleResolution
One or more units don't match the approved master/roster proofMyGradStolesFree reprint of the affected unit(s) or partial refund for those units
Carton arrives with fewer units than invoiced (shortage)MyGradStolesFree replacement shipment for the missing units once verified

Roster spelling/date error present in the customer-approved proofCustomerBillable reprint for the affected unit(s) only
Carton damaged in transitCarrier / claims processSee Shipping Policy — report within 48 hours of accepting delivery

To report a shortage, defect, or proof mismatch, contact us within 7 days of receiving your shipment with your order number, an updated count if applicable, and clear photos of any affected units. Full claims-process details are in our Returns & Refund Policy.

Section 15

School Marks, Crests & Institutional Authorization

When a school, university, or organization places or authorizes a bulk order featuring its own official crest, mascot, or Greek letters, we treat that institutional order itself as sufficient authorization to reproduce those marks for that order — we do not separately demand a licensing letter for a routine graduating-class stole order placed by the institution's own authorized staff.

We do not independently verify third-party trademark rights

As explained in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy, MyGradStoles is a manufacturing and printing service, not a licensing authority. Responsibility for ensuring your institution or organization has the right to reproduce a given mark on a bulk order rests with the customer placing that order. We reserve the right to decline any bulk order that appears to infringe a third party's trademark or copyright, or that we reasonably believe was submitted without proper authorization.

Section 16

Prohibited Content on Institutional Orders

The same prohibited-content standards in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy apply in full to bulk and institutional orders — hate speech or demeaning symbols, threats or incitement, sexually explicit content, counterfeit or unauthorized trademarks, content promoting illegal activity, defamatory statements, or anything that violates applicable U.S. or Canadian law.

Group orders raise the stakes for a single review

Because one master or roster proof authorizes production for an entire group, we ask the authorized ordering contact to review submitted artwork and roster content carefully before approval. If a submitted design falls into a restricted category, we will contact your authorized contact before production to discuss an alternative or issue a full refund for that item — we do not charge for design work on an order we decline to produce.

Section 17

Retail & Reseller Stocking Orders

MyGradStoles also supplies retail stores and campus bookstores that want to stock Blank Graduation Stoles or standard color/finish stoles for resale to their own customers.

  • Blank, non-personalized stock is best suited to reseller stocking orders since it is not made-to-order and follows our standard Returns & Refund Policy rather than the no-return-after-production rule for personalized goods.
  • If your state requires a resale certificate to purchase inventory for resale without sales tax, submit it along with your bulk order request under Section 9.
  • Resellers remain independently responsible for how they represent, price, and sell MyGradStoles products to their own end customers, including their own compliance with applicable consumer protection and advertising law in their state or province.
  • MyGradStoles' own manufacturer's warranty against defects (Section 14) runs to the original purchasing reseller; we recommend resellers pass equivalent protection along to their own end customers.
Section 18

U.S. Business & Consumer Rights

Bulk buyers are protected by the same consumer-protection framework described in detail in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy and Payment & Security Policy, plus a few rules specific to buying as a business or institution.

Every U.S. state has adopted UCC Article 2, which governs contracts for the sale of goods, including bulk stole orders. Among other things, it requires contracts for goods valued at $500 or more to be evidenced in a signed writing (the Statute of Frauds) — our written order confirmation, quote, or invoice satisfies this requirement — and it recognizes the "specially manufactured goods" exception described in Section 9 of our Custom & Personalized Order Policy for made-to-order stoles.
This FTC rule applies to our bulk orders the same way it applies to individual orders: we must have a reasonable basis for our stated production/shipping timeframe when we accept your payment, and must notify you and offer a refund option if we cannot meet it. Section 11 above reflects this for large-quantity orders.
Every stole in a bulk order carries the same implied warranty of merchantability described in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy — it must be reasonably fit for ordinary use and match the description and approved proof. This applies per unit, regardless of order size.
Every U.S. state's Unfair or Deceptive Acts and Practices statute prohibits deceptive pricing and misleading sales practices, and applies to institutional and B2B buyers as well as individual consumers in most states. See the full 50-state reference table in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy and the state sales-tax reference table in our Payment & Security Policy for details relevant to your state.
HRV Enterprises INC LLC is registered and headquartered in Mount Prospect, Illinois. Our bulk-order practices are designed to comply with the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act (815 ILCS 505) in addition to the law of each institution's home state. Unless a mandatory consumer-protection law of your own state or province requires otherwise, matters relating to this Policy are interpreted under Illinois law, consistent with our Terms & Conditions.
Section 19

Canadian Business & Consumer Rights

Each Canadian province's Sale of Goods Act (the provincial equivalent of the UCC) implies warranties of merchantable quality and fitness for purpose into contracts for the sale of goods, including bulk orders placed by Canadian schools, boards, and organizations.
Canada's federal Competition Act prohibits false or misleading pricing claims, including for volume/wholesale discount representations. Our tiered pricing description in Section 3 reflects general practice honestly rather than promising a specific rate we cannot confirm without a quote.
See the full province-and-territory reference table in our Custom & Personalized Order Policy. Most provinces' distance-sale disclosure rules apply to institutional buyers, and generally recognize a custom/special-order exception once production has begun, consistent with Section 13 above.
Québec school boards and institutions may request this Policy, a bulk quote, or a purchase-order confirmation in French, consistent with Québec's Charter of the French Language, by contacting contact@mygradstoles.com.
Section 20

Limitation of Liability & Force Majeure

Our Commitment

Our liability for a bulk order is limited to correcting a manufacturing error, replacing defective or missing units, or refunding the amount paid for the affected units, consistent with Section 14. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages — such as ceremony costs, printing costs for a program, or lost revenue for a reseller — arising from a delayed or imperfect bulk order, except where such liability cannot be limited under applicable law.

Force Majeure

MyGradStoles is not responsible for delays caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, extreme weather, carrier disruptions, customs processing, material shortages, or labor disputes — which can matter more for a large production run than a single unit. If such an event materially delays your bulk order, we will notify your authorized ordering contact promptly and work with you on a revised timeline, rush option, or refund where appropriate.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our production process, pricing structure, or legal requirements. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will not be applied retroactively to reduce the protections available to a bulk order already placed.
