Author’s tip:
Warning: The times mentioned are purely based on production time, but not on the waiting time in the queue before production! At submission times in particular, the rush on print shops or copy shops is extremely high!
More time and personnel resources are needed, in particular with leather binding with embossing, and this can lead to unpleasant delays. It is therefore recommended that you place your order online and avoid stressful waiting times in the copy shop.
