2. Order Processing
All orders are processed upon receipt and subject to acceptance by the company after review. Orders are not processed or shipped on Saturdays, Sundays, or Holidays. Actual shipping time is contingent upon availability of merchandise and credit verification by Credit and Fraud Protection Department. Most orders are shipped within 1-3 business days of receiving your order. Depending upon product availability, a best effort is made to ship out items the same day if your order is received before 2PM. Orders that are shipped to an address other than the credit card billing address or any order that meets a certain value are automatically sent through for manual verification. Consequently, such orders may take an additional 0-3 days of processing time.
Back Orders / Partial Shipments:
We attempt to always ship orders complete. We regularly stock every item we carry. Although every attempt is made to maintain inventory of each product we carry, occasionally we may run out of certain products. In the event that back order item(s) are more than 50% of total order value, we will give you an estimated time of availability and you have the choice of canceling the out-of-stock items, holding off shipment of your entire order until the product is available, or receiving a partial shipment of the in-stock items first and the out-of-stock items when they are available. No additional shipping charges will be incurred by the customer for these partial shipments. In any other case, unless otherwise instructed in the order, if your order cannot be shipped complete, we will make a partial shipment. In the event this happens, we will do our best to complete the order ASAP, as well as inform you of the status of the order. Once the items become available, they will be shipped out at no additional charge to you unless they are canceled.
