We ship Free to the contiguous US 48 states,
by standard UPS Ground, FedEx ground, US Mail, or
by Parcel Post, at our discretion. Standard Delivery generally takes 3 to 5
business days.
If you need faster delivery:
If you are on a deadline or just excited about your new purchase, and
are willing to pay the cost of shipping, you can request Express
Delivery! 2 Day delivery via Fed Ex or UPS typically costs $40-45 plus
or minus for size and weight. Next Day Air can be double that cost
(outside of US will be higher).
For CA and NV, overnight delivery is available, via California Overnight,
usually under $10. For WA, OR, and AZ, 2nd Day delivery via Cal Over is
under $10
Shipping costs will vary based on each
specific product, Weight, Dimensions, and your location. We bill the
actual shipping amount to your charge card after your item ships.
We ship on business days, Monday through Friday.
60% of our orders ship the same day, 25%
are shipped the next business day, and the other 15% ship the in the two
business days after that. Orders placed after 11:00 am PST Friday or on the
weekend ship Monday or Tuesday.
98% of the products listed in our online catalog are immediately
available from our warehouses. Orders received before 10 AM Seattle time (which
is 3 hours EARLIER than Eastern time zone) are most likely to ship the same day.
We ship the majority of our products from supply warehouses near Seattle, Sacramento and St Louis. Some
items may ship from other suppliers in other areas. Where we ship from
depends on where you are located, and where the items you order are stocked.
Usually, we ship from the closest warehouse to minimize shipping time (and
our cost). Some products are only available from our main location in
Seattle. Special Order items may ship from manufacturer's warehouses
elsewhere.
Shipping outside the 48 states: We
charge the actual shipping rate for AK, HI, International and Military APO or
FPO addresses. Orders that ship via the Post Officeusually go out on Thursday or Friday. See the Military section below. In the past we could ship to Alaska and
Hawaii by Priority Mail, but since the 2007 Postal rate increase, UPS has been
by far the most practical. We ship to other overseas destinations by US Air
Parcel Post, which usually costs substantially less than UPS and FedEx charge, with
lower "agent fees" for the receiver.
Place your order on our secure shopping cart. After we
ship, we will bill your card for the actual shipping amount. There may be
country-specific customs rules, regulations, duties, or "agent fees," which are
outside our control, that you may be responsible for upon delivery.
Examples of average shipping costs for 1 set of wheel covers
(average 6 pounds) outside the contiguous 48 states. These are averages we
experienced over several months. Your product weight and your specific location
may cause significant variance to these estimates. Products such as door handle
covers weigh significantly less, so usually cost less to ship. Shipping costs
have been rising steadily, however, with fuel costs.

Delays may occur for products on back order, in
limited availability, or special orders.
Military APO and FPO addresses: (Army Post Office and Fleet
Post Office) We ship USPS for these, and charge for the shipping separately,
since USPS charges more and usually involves export paperwork.
Delivery Address: Please make sure the shipping address you specify
is deliverable by UPS or FedEx.
UPS and FedEx
do not deliver to PO Boxes. If you want delivery to a PO
Box, we must charge you for the shipping because it involves a special trip,
taking it to the post office.
Please note that if your shipping address turns out to be undeliverable by the
carrier and the shipment is returned to us, you will be responsible to pay for
the re-shipment, or a restocking fee of 30%, in addition to applicable shipping,
transaction and insurance fees.
Military - APO or FPO Shipping:
We will ship by USPS to your APO box address, via USPS. Our USPS shipping
usually occurs Thursday or Friday from Sacramento, and we must charge you the
additional, which is usually $10-$15, depending on weight, etc.
Complete Orders:
All items ordered in a single order will ship complete. If an item within an
order must be backordered, we will contact you by email or phone to give you the
option to partial ship, or wait for the backordered item to arrive, then ship
complete.
If your product has been damaged in shipping:
If you receive a package that was damaged during shipment, do not return the
product.
Call or email us immediately with details, so we can ship you a
replacement. We need to know the extent of the damage to product
items, and also the damage to the shipping carton, for the claim we will file
with the shipping company.
Keep the damaged product and all
packaging and container materials for at least two weeks. Do not
install the item before FedEx or UPS gets a chance to inspect them. Usually
they do not, but we have to give them their option.
