We periodically offer promotional pricing for some of our products.

Following is a summary of our standard shipping charges (please see the shipping options in your shopping cart to view the eligible options for your specific order and delivery location):

Depending on shipping method selected and shipping destination, you can expect to receive your order within 2-6 business days from the day the order is placed. If we determine that an alternate shipping method provides faster delivery, the releases of the shipment may be delayed to process the shipment via the faster carrier. Upon shipment of order, you may receive an email providing you with tracking and/or shipment information (if an email address was provided during the placement of the order). If you do not receive this email within 48 hours of placing the order, please feel free to call us to receive tracking/shipment information over the telephone, or send us an email that includes your order number and order date. Please note that due to UPS, FEDEX, and US Postal Service ground transit times, delivery to many locations within 150 miles of Philadelphia, PA may be quicker with Standard Shipping selected than with 2 Day Shipping, particularly for orders received by 10:00 AM ET.
*Please note that orders may ship via FedEx, UPS, US Priority Mail, or US Express Mail services depending upon package size, weight, destination, and service selected at the time of checkout. All FedEx and UPS shipments are trackable and insured. US Mail is used for all orders to PO Boxes and for most orders with Standard Delivery requested.

Therefore, US Postal Service shipment are delivered before shipping information becomes available on the US Postal Service Website (www.usps.com). Receipt of tracking/shipment information email from us means that your order has either shipped or will be shipped at our next pickup depending upon shipping method selected.
Our Warranty, Return, Exchange, and Product Satisfaction Guarantee Policies
With the exception of custom orders, wholesale orders, bulk strap and cord product purchases, sales of machinery and equipment, and strap hardware product purchases which are non-returnable, or as otherwise noted on the retail packaging for specific products, we will accept product returns for full refund and/or exchanges with other products without restocking fees if authorized and received within 30 days of the original shipping date. Returned product and original packaging materials must be received in like new condition. The fully insured outbound shipping cost, return shipping costs/charges, and order/payment processing costs are non-refundable and will be deducted from the amount credited upon processing of the return. Additional costs (if applicable and necessary) to restore the returned product to like new condition (eg new packaging, repacking, etc) are also deducted from the amount of credit applied for the return. Beyond our 30 day period a restocking fee may apply in the event that we agree to accept the return of a product. This policy applies to purchases made from our website and to purchases made from authorized distributors. Please do not return products to a retailer unless instructed to do so.

Shipping charges previously billed, free promotional shipping credits, our actual shipping costs (including cost of shipping insurance for the value of the original order) in the event that they exceed the amount charged, order/payment processing costs, and return shipping costs are not covered under the terms of this warranty. In the event of a return or exchange is made, we strongly recommend that an insured and trackable shipping method is used, as we are not responsible for lost or missing returns or their associated costs. All returned or exchanged products must be received in unused condition with original packaging.
In the event of warranty repair or replacement is necessary, it is our policy to return the product to it's original working condition (excluding normal wear and tear of re-useable components when applicable). Warranty items must be returned to us postage prepaid and we make every effort to return a repaired or exchanged item within 5 business days. Inbound and outbound return shipping costs are not included under this policy and outbound shipping costs may be billed upon shipment. We do not mark up actual shipping and insurance costs beyond what is incurred. Normal wear and tear on strap products including fraying, thinning, running, color fading, or twisting are not covered under the terms of our warranty.

Our Shipping Policy for International Orders and International Return Policy
We do ship our products to addresses outside of the USA. All sales are in US Dollars for international purchases. International orders that are received from our website without the appropriate shipping method selection selected at checkout may incur an additional charge to the credit card used at the time of ordering in the amount equal to any excess shipping for the international shipment from our standard rates (see above shipping chart). We are not responsible for the collection or payment of duties and/or customs brokerage fees that may be collected by the carrier and/or the country of import. If you would like to receive a price for shipping charges that will be incurred for a specific foreign destination, please send an email to our sales department indicating the items that you would like to purchase, the desired quantities, and the shipping destination. We will not ship orders to countries that are forbidden to trade with the US. We are not currently able to accept returns from locations outside of the US. All international sales are final.
Our Strap Length, Mesh Bag Size, and Cord Length Policy
It is our goal to accurately cut and stitch our raw materials to match the various product sizes. Our finished sizes are typically +/- one inch, but may be slightly longer. If your application requires an exact length measurement, please call us to discuss your precise requirements.
Typographical & Pricing Errors
We make every attempt to clearly and accurately describe our products, services, promotions, policies, and prices. While we generally honor pricing errors that benefit our customers, we reserve the right to refuse to honor incorrect pricing. In the event that we are unable to honor an incorrect price or promotion, all charges will be reversed and the customer will be notified as soon as we are aware of such problems. So that we may best serve our customers, we appreciate being informed of any suspected typographical errors.
Sales Tax
We collect 6% sales tax for all sales shipped to PA unless a valid exemption certificate is provided to us.
Disputed Credit Card Charges
It is our goal to achieve 100% customer satisfaction and we are dedicated to working with our customers for any problems they may have with purchases or other contact with our company. In the extremely unlikely event that a billing error occurs we will work to quickly correct the problem and we urge our customers to contact us first for the fastest resolution of such problems. In the event that a charge is disputed directly with the card issuing bank for any reason (typically because a cardholder does not recognize our company's name on their monthly statement), card issuing banks often charge merchants chargeback fees for the handling of the dispute regardless of the outcome or the reason for the dispute. This becomes a time consuming process. In the event that such disputes occur resulting from the charge from a legitimate purchase, we reserve the right to pass such fees on to the customer via a separate invoice due immediately upon receipt. Such invoiced amounts may include the original invoiced amount, chargeback and any other bank fees incurred as a result of the dispute, and collection fees incurred in the event that they become necessary. This policy applies to all orders prepaid with credit cards.
Commercial & Personal Account Terms and Conditions / Late fees and Collection Policy for Unpaid Invoices
Our standard terms for business customer accounts are Net 30 days with approved credit. Shorter, longer, or other terms may be negotiated for certain accounts with our written acceptance of such. Orders are invoiced the day they are shipped. Payments received after 30 days are subject to a minimum monthly late fee in the amount of $39. Past due accounts are also subject to an additional late fee of 1.5% per month accruing from the original invoice date. In the event that an account is sent to 3rd party collection agencies or attorneys for non payment, the customer will be notified of such pending action in advance and any resulting fees and collection costs will be the responsibility of the customer and will be included in the amount to be recovered. As is common practice in the industries we serve, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing, commercial orders, wholesale orders for resale, or purchases for OEM use are non-returnable and non-refundable. Unless we receive/provide and approve written terms and conditions to the contrary, our full terms and conditions apply to all orders, sales, and customer accounts without exception. The laws of PA apply to all accounts though we reserve the right to file collection proceedings in the jurisdiction of delinquent customers.
On larger custom run orders we do our best to meet the requested order quantity exactly. Because of material overages and undercounts and/or QC rejections prior to shipping actual volumes shipped and invoiced may vary by +/- 10%. If exact quantities are required then it must be specified on a purchase order and approved by us.
Any claims regarding deviations from manufacturing specifications or defects in the materials and/or workmanship must be made within 30 days of the first shipment date.
Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing, we assume no liability for and make no guarantees about the suitability of custom items produced by us for it's intended or unintended use.
Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing all quoted lead times are approximate lead times that may vary by production scheduling or unanticipated delays resulting from unforeseen problems with machinery, operator(s), material(s), and/or acts of nature. In the event that we encounter any significant delays we will promptly notify the customer and provide production updates as they become known. Unless explicitly stated and agreed upon in writing, in no event shall our liability for a mutually cancelled order exceed the cost of payment(s) received less production, shipping, invoiced value of shipment(s), and material costs incurred at the completion or cancellation of the order.
Insurance Value on Shipments
Shipments for all orders are insured at our invoiced price of the shipment for collect shipments billed on customer accounts or shipments billed on third party accounts. Customers may request lesser or no insurance on collect or third-party shipments at their own risk if they do so in writing prior to shipment.
