Welcome to DC!

Here is a quote of our refund policy. Also here is the link to the contest holders terms of agreement.
http://www.designcon...content/view/34Refund Policy:
If after the first two weeks of a contest there are less than five (5) unique entries to that contest (revisions to previously submitted concepts do not apply as additional entries), then the contest holder may terminate the contest with no winner and retrieve all prize money, less the $30 administration fees. If there are at least 5 unique entries, but the contest holder does not wish to choose any of them as the winning design, then a 50% reduction will be made from the total prize, and the balance (minus $30 administration fees) can be refunded to the contest holder upon their own request. The above mentioned 50% will be paid to the participating designer whom, the staff votes, put in the most effort.
Should the case arise for any reason, obligatory or by personal decision, that the contest holder does cancel a contest with ten (10) or more unique design entries, there will be no refund offered, nor will the contest holder be entitled to any type of compensation other than a design chosen from the current entries. If a design is chosen by the contest holder, then the prize funds will be awarded to the designer of the chosen entry, otherwise the funds will be disbursed appropriately amongst the participating designers of the contest.
