FAQ

Of course! As soon as you place an order, you will receive an email to the address you entered confirming your purchase.

It usually takes one business day to process and pack your order, once it leaves the warehouse you will receive an email with a tracking number (if sent via UPS) or confirmation of shipping (if sent via USPS) so that you can look out for your gear.

We do our best to make sure that the stock is up to date on the website, however occasionally there are maybe some inaccuracies. If an item that you order is out of stock then we will notify you as soon as we process the order.

Will I be charged Sales Tax?
 
Sales tax is charged on orders shipped to Washington. 

If an item is on backorder, we will contact you as soon as we process the order so that you can decide what you would like to do - but no matter what, you will not be charged until the goods are shipped.

If you have already completed the checkout process and clicked "Place Order", you wont be able to make any online changes to your order. To change or cancel your order prior to shipment, you must call Customer Service at 1-800-852-5288 straight away as most orders process quickly and can enter the shipping process within minutes. Unfortunately if your order has already entered the shipping process, it cannot be changed or canceled.

At our warehouse, tracking numbers are assigned to packages almost immediately and emailed to you along with your order information. However, it may take up to 48 hours or longer before the package is checked into the carrier's tracking system. That means even though your package has already shipped from our warehouse and is on its way to you, the carrier may not be able to provide any information about your package for up to 48 hours or more.

Orders placed online will be shipped via UPS or USPS. Therefore, tracking availability may vary depending on the type of item you purchased, the shipping method you selected during Checkout, and the carrier that is delivering your item(s).

How can I check where my order is?

Any order shipped to a destination outside of the United States may be subject to import taxes or duties. As the recipient, you are the importer and must comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

Each country has different rules, regulations and duties so there is no one answer. If you would like for your order to be shipped to somewhere that is different from one of our 3 warehouses worldwide, please contact our office directly to get a more accurate quote.

We charge only the merchandise and shipping charges to your credit card/payment method. Import taxes and duties are collected by the international carrier upon delivery.
