BACK ORDERS
1.  I received an email stating my order was on back order.  What happened?

We strive very hard to make sure our inventory listed for sale is on-hand.  However, sometimes a customer places an order for merchandise before we can update the inventory status on our website.

2.  Was my credit card automatically charged for a back ordered item?

It depends.  Customers who pay using Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express will NOT have their card charged for a back ordered item.  We always make sure the order items are on-hand before processing the order and charging a customer's credit card.  If we find during our inventory check that the desired item(s) is on back order, we contact the customer via email to notify them of the back order status and the removal of that item from their order.

If a customer pays using Paypal, their card is automatically charged.  If we find that an item(s) is on backorder, we contact the customer via email to notify them of the back ordered status and the removal of that item from their order.  The customer will receive a refund for any amount due.  Refunds are processed within 2 business days and are sent back to the customers Paypal account.

3.  How long do back orders take?

The status of the back ordered item(s) varies and depends on the product and its distributor.


RETURNS
1.  What is your return policy?

We stand behind all our products and our goal is to make our customers happy so we offer a refund policy that is the strongest in the industry.  We offer a 30 day, 100% money-back, satisfaction guarantee.   Please contact us within 30 days of the receipt of your order and we will glady refund your merchandise total.   All products must be returned in their original packaging in new, resaleable condition.  Shipping and handling charges are not refundable for unwanted merchandise.  If the original order qualified for free shipping, the original shipping charges are deducted from the refunded amount due the customer.  Please note that all domestic refunds are issued within 5 business days via business check regardless of the original method of payment.  The only exception to this policy is if the original payment was made through Paypal.
