Cancellations / Changes to your order Disclaimer from Unforeseeable Circumstances |
International Shipping Transit Times Refused Shipments / Delivery Failure |
Sometimes an order that we have placed on your behalf may be backordered or out of stock. If your entire order is out-of-stock, your order will be cancelled. Occasionally, part of an order may be out of stock or backordered by the store. If this is the case, we will take the action which you requested during checkout. We are not responsible for delays in your order due to backorder situations. Shipments will be made when all items in your order have arrived at our depot. We do not make partial shipments.

Merchants that have a presence in the State of California are required by law to collect Sales Tax in the amount of 9.25% when shipping to our California depot. If California Sales Tax applies to your order, we will revise your invoice to add the sales tax and charge you accordingly. Even though your order will be shipped outside of the USA, it is shipped to our California depot first and as such the stores HAVE to charge the tax. Most online merchants post Sales Tax detail in their Customer Service or Help pages.
