only on the first order. If you\n          reorder the same design while the mold is still on file, you will not\n          need to pay it again.

A 3D design requires more detailed mold engraving and additional\n          production setup, so it usually costs more than a standard 2D design.\n        <\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n\n    <details class=\"vp-cost-faq-item\">\n      <summary>Does adding more colors increase the price?<\/summary>\n      <div class=\"vp-cost-faq-answer\">\n        <p>\n          Standard enamel colors do not normally increase the price by\n          themselves. The cost may increase if you add color to both sides or\n          use special options such as gradients, UV printing, or glow effects.\n        <\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n\n    <details class=\"vp-cost-faq-item\">\n      <summary>Is shipping included in the challenge coin price?<\/summary>\n      <div class=\"vp-cost-faq-answer\">\n        <p>\n          Standard shipping is included for U.S. orders.
