Shipping
Policies
Prior to placing an order, we ask that
read and agree to the following Terms and
Conditions, known as the Shipping
Policies, part of our Order
Policies. By placing an order with
us either on website or by phone, you are
making a fortified statement of agreement
to all Terms and Conditions herein and
hyperlinked to, which will be legally
binding. If you do not agree with any
portion of the Terms and Conditions as
posted herein or hyperlinked to, we ask
that you do not place an order with
us.

1.
Where do you ship and
where do you not ship?
|
|
We ship
to the Contiguous United States
only. This means we cannot
and will not ship to Alaska,
Hawaii, Puerto Rico, U.S.
Protectorates and Territories, or
APO/FPO addresse under any
circumstance. Our shipping
process is automated and shipping
outside of the Contiguous US to
foreign countries or to the above
areas could not be done in an
automated fashion, thus making it
difficult to ship to these areas.
It's not a matter of cost, it's
the inability and unwillingness
to break away from the automation
system to process the shipment
manually. We do not know of any
distributors that do ship outside
the US, so please don't ask
us.
Please note, we ship via
United Parcel Service (UPS)
Ground Service. UPS does not ship
to PO Box Addresses, so we can
not ship to a PO Box Address. If
paying by credit card or any
other electronic payment format,
including Paypal or Online Check
Processing, we are forced to ship
to the confirmed billing address.
This address can not be a PO Box
address. We will not ship to an
alternate address for electronic
payment orders. The order MUST
ship to the confirmed billing
address. NO EXCEPTIONS.
If your billing address is a
PO Box address, but you need to
have the merchandise shipped to
your street address, the order
must be placed as a Money Order
Payment order. We can then ship
to any address you desire.

2.
Can you ship my order
to another adress as a
gift?
|
|
In short, Yes! However, please
note we can only ship to
alternate addresses if payment is
made by Money Order or Certified
/ Bank Check. If your paying by
credit card or any other form of
electronic payment, including
Paypal or Online Check
Processing, we are forced to ship
to the confirmed billing address.
This address can not be a PO Box
address. We will not ship to an
alternate address for electronic
payment orders. The order MUST
ship to the confirmed billing
address. NO EXCEPTIONS.
So if you need to ship it as a
gift... you will need to select
Money Order or Certified / Bank
Check as your payment method
during check out.
Any requests for shipping to
an alternate address with credit
card or electronic payments will
be ignored and we will ship to
the confirmed billing address as
per these policies.
