PRICE TICKETS
Manufacturer supplies price tickets unless otherwise specified by the buyer. The manufacturer may use their own source for price tickets as long as: ° Do not use gloss finish tickets. Due to the reflection of light, these tickets sometimes do not scan
properly
° Price ticket size is 1 ½” X 2 5/8”
° The price ticket contains a barcode. The proper price ticket must be on the proper garment.
Altering a price ticket is not acceptable since the information will not match the barcode. If you do
not have the correct price ticket, a new one must be made containing the correct barcode.
° In no instance, should any other ticket attach to the garment. Remove vendor price/SKU tickets
before shipment
° Vendors are responsible for verifying ticket information and ensuring damage free placement. All
cost incurred by Destination Maternity Corp for damage due to vendor ticketing will result in
charge backs in full to the vendor. Improperly ticketed or garments not ticketed will result in
charge backs.
° Correct size type must be printed on price ticket, i.e. Missy=XS/S/M/L/XL/XXL,
Petite=PXS/PS/PM/PL/PXL/PXXL and Plus= 1X/2X/3X

PACKING FOR TRIMS/DECORATIVE STYLES
SECTION 10 Trims, V6 Page 22
DMC may order garments with fabric flowers pinned/basted onto garments. To ensure that flowers
are not damaged in transit, we have classified these pins two different ways: (1) soft flower (2) hard
flower. Soft flowers need to be wrapped in tissue paper, with the tissue starting from underneath the
flower petals. Hard flowers need to be protected with cardboard surrounding the flower. It is
suggested that garments be packed head-to-toe (bricking) so that all flowers on all garments are not
shipped on top of each other. Another way of describing this would be that every other garment is
packed in reverse of the one before it (the top of one garment will be touching the bottom of the next
garment).
The following 2 pages illustrate the wrapping of the different flower types.
