How do I place a rush order?
If there is a specific in-hand date for your order or you need it to be expedited to you as soon as possible, please contact Customer Support.

Rush production charges and/or expedited shipping charges may apply. Some products are not eligible for expedited shipping. These items are identified on the individual product pages.
What if I want an item, but it is out of stock/on backorder?
We strive to maintain adequate stock levels, however, we may run out of or run low on a particular item. Inventory quantities and expected stock arrival dates for each item are shown on the detailed product page. If you find an item that doesn't have adequate inventory on hand you have the following options:
  • Reduce your quantity to the remaining amount available on hand;
  • Check out the other related items in this category;
  • Add your email to the Stock Notice and we'll notify you when more inventory becomes available.


Taking advantage of the Stock Notice feature does not commit you to purchase. Should you decide you still need the item when it arrives in stock, you will then have the opportunity to purchase the item.
What if I need to cancel my order?
For orders that have already been produced and/or shipped, please see the return or exchange policy. For items that have not been produced and/or shipped, please contact Customer Support.

For made-to-order items, a representative from our team will contact the manufacturer to find out if the order is eligible to be canceled. If the order can be canceled, cancellation and restock charges may apply. Any remaining funds for the canceled order will be credited to the credit card used at the time of purchase. For security, the credit card information is not kept on file. A member of our Customer Support Team will contact you to get the information to process the credit.
