| Order Process
|
|
We encourage you to feel comfortable using your credit card or Pay Pal to make purchases on our site. If you wish, you may also send us a Money Order or personal check. Personal checks will delay your order as we must wait for your funds to clear before we ship any merchandise. COD is not offered at this time. |
|
Please allow an additional 7-10 business days for shipping of your merchandise if paid by personal check. To order by check, just print the order form with your shopping cart contents from the order confirmation page and complete the necessary fields, then mail the form to the address on your receipt. |
|
All orders placed by credit card are subject to address verification by our credit and fraud avoidance department. Orders shipping to an address different from the billing address may require additional information and our alternate address form to be filled out and sent back to us via email, fax or regular mail. This is to help protect consumers against credit card fraud that is overwhelming the internet today. |
| During each stage of the order process, you will receive the following email notifications: |
- Receipt of Order
- Shipment Notification, including tracking number and carrier
- Important order information (for example, any delays beyond the allotted time stated in our policies or actual shipping costs for rush or expedited requests)

|
If your order was lost or damaged in transit notify us immediately about the problem within 3 business days of receipt of the merchandise or 3 days after the scheduled delivery date in case of non-receipt.

|
| In case of damage DO NOT discard any shipping materials and manufacturer's packaging. Please re-seal the damaged products using the original packaging materials. You must hold the package for at least 8 business days. If the carrier does not contact you to pick-up the damaged merchandise for damage inspection, then they have opted waive the inspection and the merchandise can be discarded. |
| If you don't want to wait until the investigation is completed and you want us to send a replacement item right away, please let us know. We will ship the item right out to you (assuming it is in stock) but will have to charge your credit card for the replacement. We will refund the money for your original order once the carrier has completed their investigation. |

We do not sell any items for shipping only. |
