Do I need to purchase ink pad separately?
Usually, you need ink pads for conventional rubber stamps. But if you intend to purchase a pre-inked rubber stamp, then you won't need an ink pad. So, know your needs and if you are in doubt whether you should buy ink pad or not, then ask it out to your vendor.

What are the sizes available?

Can you include my logo on the rubber stamp?

Is there any discount?
