Shipping Fees:
UPS shipping fees are calculated based on the weight of the merchandise with a minimum shipping weight of 2 pounds. When ordering online, the shipping amount shown during checkout is only an estimated charge generated by the UPS online system. The UPS system is unable to determine and account for multiple boxes and certain surcharges. Therefore, your shipping charges may be higher than the online estimate if multiple boxes are required to best protect your items during transit or if UPS charges extra UPS Handling Charges and UPS Rural Route Surcharges to your destination.

In many instances, it is not possible to accurately confirm shipping charges without having packed and shipped your order.  We reserve the right to charge the full shipping amount to your credit card once the order has been shipped.  This will show up as a second charge on your credit card.

International customers are responsible for any and all customs duties, taxes and brokerage fees that the package(s) may incur.  Any order returned to us due to rejection by customs will be subject to our cancellation fee and the return shipping fee.  Please be sure of your country's import restrictions/requirements prior to ordering.

We are not able to ship C.O.D.  We cannot ship to post office boxes, to APO/FPO addresses, or via postal services within the
US or international addresses.  If you need to receive your shipment to via a postal service such as USPS, we welcome you have your order shipped to a friend or relative who can then forward it on to you.

If your package is returned to us marked as "refused", "unclaimed", or "undeliverable", and you would like to have it re-shipped, we will unfortunately need to charge a $7.95 re-shipping fee.

Shipping cost is non-refundable for undelivered, unclaimed or returned packages, unless we made an error.

All orders require your signature upon package delivery.  Customers are responsible for reimbursing us for any shipping and handling charges that are incurred if a package is returned because no one was available to accept it.  We cannot honour special requests to have UPS leave your package without requiring a signature. I f this may pose a problem, please use a shipping address where someone will be available to receive the package for you.

International Customers & Brokerage/Customs Fees:
UPS Canada Standard is the standard method used for most Canadian deliveries.  Some locations within Canada require us to use UPS Worldwide Express.  All other orders are shipped via UPS Worldwide Express.  International customers are responsible for any and all customs duties, taxes and brokerage fees that the package may incur.  We are not able to determine the amount of these fees before shipping to you.  UPS will not deliver your order unless these fees are paid in full.  Any order returned to us due to non-payment of brokerage and customs fees will be subject to our cancellation fee and the return shipping fee.

The shipping address must match the billing address for international orders.

Handling:
A $2.50 base handling fee is applied to all non-expedited UPS orders.  The base handling fee includes processing and handling for the first two boxes for your order.  For larger orders, $2 will be charged for each additional box required to safely ship your order regardless of UPS shipping method.  Handling fees may be higher on exceptionally large orders.

Additional Charges:
The customer is responsible for any additional fees charged by UPS for address corrections. UPS charges this fee when packages are missing suite numbers, contain typos including zip code errors, or contain any other incorrect information that is missing or inaccurately supplied by the customer within the "Ship To" area of our order form. UPS also charges for address changes such as dropping off your package at any address other than the one provided in the "Ship To" area of the order form. The UPS address correction fee is $5 per box for US addresses, $10 per box for Canadian addresses. The fee may vary in other countries. We reserve the right to charge for these fees as soon as we are notified of them.

Processing Time:
Orders placed online are generally shipped within 48-72 hours

PayPal Users:
Please be aware that payments made though PayPal may occasionally take a few days to clear.  We have also discovered that their system sometimes goes down.  This can prevent us from confirming the receipt of payment.  We are not responsible for any delays in processing orders paid for through PayPal.

Orders cannot be shipped until your payment clears.  Orders of $150 or more paid for via PayPal must be shipped to an address that the PayPal system lists as being CONFIRMED.  Please note that this is separate from verifying your account.  You are able to confirm your address by logging into your PayPal account, going into the Profile Summary area, selecting Street Address, and then by clicking on the Confirm button on the bottom of the page.  PayPal's confirmation procedures may change, so if you have questions, please contact PayPal.
