Receiving Your Order, Returns & Damages Policy
SPECIAL COVID-19 GUIDELINES:
Please be safe, wear a mask and gloves when accepting any deliveries.
Please keep in mind that due to increased volumes there could be communication delays. We’re sorry for any delays and any inconvenience this causes you—thank you for being patient and understanding at this time.
Please understand that the Receiver information below pertains to "normal times" and that during the covid-19 pandemic, times are anything but normal. Please be patient, respectful and accomodating to all drivers delivering your package. Due to Covid-19, on-line shopping has increased dramatically and carriers are overwhelmed with deliveries. In many cases, Covid-19 guidelines can change on a day-to-day basis, depending on the state, county or city that they are delivering to. They have guidelines that they must follow in order to protect themselves, their families and you.
Some drivers have very limited days/hours for deliveries to specific areas. Please be accomodating. If you cannot be at home during their delivery hours, please request delivery without a signature (all shipments are insured for this type of delivery), or ask a neighbor or friend to be there in your place. Some carriers instruct their drivers NOT to deliver inside of your home, nor open the packages and let you inspect the goods prior to signing. This is for everyone's protection. In these cases, please go ahead and sign, but also write on the BOL "NOT inspected, per driver's request", as this will be helpful in any future damage claims.
Please understand that these are very trying times for all involved and everyone, included suppliers and drivers, are doing their best to navigate these unknown waters, as this pandemic is beyond our control. Please be kind and patient, and we will all get through this together. Thank you!
*** RECEIVING YOUR ORDER ***
All merchandise ordered over $500 in sales must be received and signed for by the Consignee (person placing the order) or a copy of their valid ID must be presented to the delivery person. Most times the carrier will call you in advance to make an appointment for delivery and you must be available to receive the merchandise or a designated adult (over the age of 18) with the copy of your ID.
Upon delivery, please inspect the packaging prior to signing for the delivery. If the packaging has any damage, please note this on the BOL.
Delivery refusal(s) that are not showing damage may be subject to a 25% re-stocking fee, plus all shipping costs incurred.
Please save and return all items in original packaging material, with all tags intact. When returning items, we highly recommend insuring the item against damage or loss, as you will be responsible for the item(s) until it is delivered and received back to our supplier. We cannot accept items back that have been damaged by your return shipper. In this case, you must file a damage claim with your carrier, as only the shipper can make this claim. We will send you photos of the damaged item for your damage claim.
Returns of items shipped with Free Shipping:
We offer Free shipping on all orders. In the event that you wish to return a returnable item in which you received free shipping, we will refund the full price paid for the merchandise, minus all shipping fees and re-stocking fee when applicable. Please ask if you would like to know what these charges are before returning your item, as this fee can vary widely from item to item.
*** DAMAGE CLAIMS***
- Note the damage/suspect damage on the Carrier Receipt.
- YOU MUST KEEP ALL PACKAGING IN-TACT EXACTLY AS YOU RECEIVED IT, AS THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO OUR DAMAGE CLAIM WITH OUR CARRIER.
- You must notify us within 2 days of receipt of any/all damage claims.
- Your damaged item may be picked up by our carrier for inspection.
Please do NOT ship the broken item back to us. It may be inspected at your location by the carrier and then you may dispose of it.
Once the damaged item has been inspected and the damage claim approved you will either be credited for the amount paid, or the item will be repaired or replaced.
Policy as of 9/13/20.
