How soon after I place my order do you ship my package?
We are very proud of our reputation for Super Fast Same Day Shipping. The vast majority of orders received by 3pm Pacific time, Monday thru Friday, are shipped on the same day. We cannot guarantee that we will ship the same day, but we make every effort to do so. Monday is the day we ask for your patience, as occasionally the volume of orders may preclude us from shipping all orders, but we will definitely get them out the next day!
How will I know when my order has been accepted and shipped?
Immediately upon completing an online order, you will receive an email confirmation of your order. Once your order is fully processed, you will receive an emailed receipt of your final order, indicating the expected shipping date. Once shipped, you will also receive an email showing your delivery confirmation or tracking number and the exact shipping date. Be sure to provide us with an accurate email address so you can receive these notifications.
Will you ship to an address other than my billing address?
We would be happy to do so. Complete or modify the Shipping Address during the Registration process if you are a new customer, or in the Shipping & Payment portion of the order process if you are a repeat customer. If you wish a comment to be added to the order, such as Happy Birthday, indicate so in the Customer Notes section of the order. The recipient will receive a copy of your invoice, which is used as a packing slip. If you DO NOT wish this to occur, please indicate so.
The Ordering Process
How does your shopping cart work?
You add merchandise to your shopping cart from individual product pages using the Add to Cart button. At any time you may click on the My Cart at the top of each page to see the items in your shopping cart, and make any modifications. You can then either Continue Shopping, or Checkout at that time.
Is it safe and secure to order merchandise online?
We have taken every precaution to make your transaction secure. Our shopping cart is built using industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology for security and privacy.
How will I know that my order went through?
First, be sure that you follow the ordering system instructions all the way to the end, at which point you will be shown a receipt or order form which you may print. You will shortly thereafter be sent an email to the email address shown on your order confirming that your order has been placed and will be processed as soon as possible. Once your order is fully processed, you will receive an emailed receipt of your final order, indicating the expected shipping date. Once shipped, you will also receive an email showing your delivery confirmation or tracking number and the exact shipping date. We want to keep you informed! If you have any questions, contact us via telephone during our business hours, or send an email or leave a voice message. We promise you will receive a prompt response to your request for assistance.
What if you don’t have all of the items in stock?
If an item that you ordered is out of stock, it will be automatically back ordered. Our products are rarely on a backorder status, as we receive a fresh stock of products regularly. However, when that does occur it is usually only for a few days. We may hold your entire order until the back ordered item arrives, or we may ship all the other products on your order, and ship the back ordered item when it arrives back into our inventory. You will be informed of the projected shipping date of the back ordered item. You can also check the status of your order by logging into our shopping cart and viewing your Order History.
How can I cancel my order?
If you wish to cancel your order after it is placed on our website, you will receive a full refund IF your order has not been shipped. Please contact us immediately if you want to cancel your order, as we are very quick at shipping orders! Contact us via telephone during our business hours, or send an email, or leave a voice message. If your order has already been shipped, you may refuse it when it reaches you. When your refused order is received back by us, we will credit you for the amount charged for the product, less a 10% restocking fee. You will not be credited for the shipping charges.
What happens if the merchandise is lost or stolen during shipping and delivery?
If your domestic or international order has NOT been sent insured, we cannot replace lost or stolen merchandise that has been shown to be delivered by the United States Postal Service, by Fedex, by any other delivery service, or by the delivery service in a foreign country. If you feel that your package cannot be safely delivered to your home, please request that we add insurance to your order. If it has been insured, a replacement order will be sent along with documents for your signature, which we will need to make a claim with the delivery service so that we may recover the cost of the merchandise.
