Shipping Policy

Free Shipping

Free shipping is offered to USA and Canada. Typically items arrive in 7-10 business days via UPS.

How Shipping Works

Each product page has a tab for Shipping, and information regarding cost and options are outlined per product.

Regular ground shipping to the US and Canada are free.

Outside the US and Canada, shipping rates are provided in the drop down menu at checkout.

We ship worldwide. Please see below for more information per country.

International shipping can not be calculated until we have your shipping address and product order. You may contact us beforehand via the contact form if you would like an international shipping quote before placing your order. At checkout the shipping amount will say $0, and we will reply with the actual shipping amount before we process your order and charge your credit card. Once you are quoted the shipping price you will still have the option to decline the order if you are not satisfied. Once you approve the shipping cost, we will proceed with your order.

While we do our best to get your packages out in a quick and efficient manner, we cannot guarantee the date and/or time of delivery due to the possibility of unforeseen circumstances. Any delivery dates provided by your UPS tracking email are estimates only.

* Packages come with insurance and require a signature to ensure the safety of your order. You can elect to remove the signature requirement, but you will also be removing the insurance protection and will be responsible if anything happens or the package does not arrive.

Alternatively, if you can’t be home for a signature, you can choose to have your package delivered to the nearest UPS access point and pick up your order at your convenience. Please put that in the notes of your order.

Expedited Shipping 3-5 days

For US customers only, you have the option to expedite your order for an extra fee. These orders are given top priority in order processing.

It will take as little as three and up to five days (but usually it arrives in 3-4 days (excluding holidays and weekends.)

**Orders with expedited shipping go out Monday – Friday.**

Expedited orders for items that are in stock are usually shipped within 24-48 hours of credit card settlement excluding weekends and holidays. Then it ships “2nd Day Air” with UPS. So between time to process and shipment, it usually ends up being 3-4 days, but it can take as long as 5 days.

For example, if you place an order at midnight on a Friday, it will not start processing time for the order until Monday. You would likely get it on Wednesday or Thursday the following week.

Our guarantee is to prioritize the express orders and ship them out as soon as possible, and expedite them with UPS, but we do not guarantee how many days it will arrive to you as there are many factors

EUROPE

Our warehouse for the European region is located in the Netherlands. Products shipped to EU Countries have a new low handling fee and free shipping. If your unit was shipped from the Netherlands, it can be returned to the Netherlands. If it shipped from elsewhere, it will need to be returned to the same warehouse of origin.

European countries charge a Value Added Tax (VAT) which must be added to your handling total and as a result, the final cost is higher than in the United States. This VAT ranges from 19-27% depending on the country. It is a tax that must be paid whenever any transaction occurs in any country in Europe.

To check current rates per country, see TaxFoundation.org. Latest rates found here.

When products are sold in the EU, VAT must be charged with the order and the tax must be paid to the government every quarter.
VAT must be paid regardless of whether the product is shipped from the United States or within Europe.
VAT in Europe is equivalent to the sales tax paid when purchasing goods in the United States.

European countries that are not in the EU may still charge a VAT but that will be managed by the customer, not by our shipping department.

VAT EXEMPTION: If the buyer is a company that holds a VAT license, then they do not need to pay the VAT. Only in this case is the VAT exempt. Please let us know if you are VAT exempt when placing the order in the comments section. We will ask you for documentation and will remove the VAT fee from your final invoice.

CREDIT CARD ORDERS: To prevent delays, please let your credit card company know of your order, as it will be charged from the US and often this triggers a decline in European credit cards. This can be resolved by advising them of the charge upfront.

EU COUNTRIES:

The chart below shows an example of how shipping to EU countries will be billed.
During checkout, it will give you an estimate because the VAT changes per country. In the final invoice, your VAT will be adjusted to your country.

NON- EU EUROPEAN COUNTRIES:

If you live in a non EU country in Europe (such as the UK), you will be billed differently. The shipping rate is not subsidized so you will pay for shipping AND handling. You will also be responsible for paying any other taxes your country imposes such as VAT and customs fees. We will only charge you the shipping and handling rate to your address, unlike EU countries where we also manage and charge the VAT.
