I have an uncle in the printing game ( or was 20 years ago). A client asked a large amount of leaflets for his shop, and misspelt part of the address. My uncle didn't pick it up and printed off a sample for client to approve, which he did. Then he completed the order, 1000s of them.
Client had the mistake pointed out to him by someone and refused to pay. Uncle sued him saying he did what he was told and the sample was approved by the client. Uncle lost, court ruled he was a professional printer, and the client wasn't, so as the professional he should have been expected to spot the error and rectify it.
That was a bit harsh unless your uncle was offering proof-reading services as well.Client had the mistake pointed out to him by someone and refused to pay.
