Errors on this site, Server downtime and Site Updates
Because we are only human we make mistakes. If you snag a great deal that has been labeled $2.00 instead of $20.00 we are not obligated to honor that price. Your order will be canceled and you are invited to reorder the item at the correct price. We apologize for any inconvenience, but we aren’t Santa.
We host our own website periodic downtime may occur. In the event that you are disconnected from our server while trying to place an order, please contact us to make sure the order did not go through before reordering.
We will update the site when we are able. Because site development is ongoing we encourage you to email us with any ideas or suggestions. We will take them into consideration when possible. As a general rule we’ll try and update the site at least one time each week.
Product & Warranty
All name brand products are covered under warranty by their respective manufacturers. Products that have been modified are not covered under manufacturer's warranty, but are guaranteed to arrive in working condition. No further warranties apply.
Returns and Exchanges
Returns are accepted, as long as they are done within 10 days (we feel this is enough time to determine if the items in your order are operational and to decide if you wish to keep them). You must obtain a Return Authorization before shipping your item back, or your return will not be accepted. To obtain a Return Authorization, please CONTACT US.
You are responsible for shipping the item back to us in like-new condition (or the condition the item arrived to you in). There is a 15% restocking fee on non-defective items to offset lost shipping, credit card and labor costs. Once we receive the item we will issue a refund. Your refund will be issued in the same form payment was received unless other arrangements have been made. We do not reimburse shipping costs (unless the mistake is ours and the buyer requests a refund). We strongly recommend you insure any package being returned to us- if your return is lost or damaged there is nothing we can do.
* All the products we sell are new, unless otherwise indicated. If you return the product to us in used condition we reserve the right to charge you a restocking fee higher than 15% or return the product to you.

If you choose to send an email you must use “order change” or “order cancellation” in your email subject to make sure the email is directed to the correct department so the change or cancellation can be implemented before the order ships.
