Attention:  Customer Service - Returns

Lost or Damaged Items:

Rest assured we take great care in packaging your order for shipment.  However, there are times when even the best efforts cannot withstand improper carrier handling.  Should an item be lost or damaged we will make it right by replacing or refunding the item! 

 There are two simple steps you need to take:

• First, notify us immediately should an item be lost or damaged during transit .  You can do this via e-mail  and let us know if you want the item replaced or refunded.

• Second, it is absolutely essential that you keep all packaging and damaged items to assist us in making a claim on your behalf with the carrier.  We will arrange for the carrier to pick-up the package to confirm the damage.  Without this confirmation we will not be able to replace or refund your  item. 

That's all there is to it!  Once the carrier has picked up the package and confirmed the damage, we will reship your order at no additional cost to you or refund your purchase price.   This process usually takes 7-10 days depending upon the carrier.  We appreciate your understanding and hope you will let us make things right.
