CREDIT ACCOUNT TERMS


As a manufacturer, our customers rely on our having a large inventory on hand.   To be able to maintain this, we must be able to collect our receivables within the 30 day terms we offer.  We expect that our customers respect these terms when they open an account with us and are asked to acknowledge the terms as part of obtaining a credit account.

If an account goes beyond 30 days, an interest charge of 1.5% per month is added.

When an account becomes delinquent, any courtesy discounts granted to Dealers, Rental Houses and Professionals will be revoked and all open invoices will revert to List Price.   Ten days after final notification, the account will  be turned over to an attorney for collection.   Attorneys fees and collection expenses will be added to the amount due.

For your convenience, we accept**

** We will accept credit cards for payment only at the time of order.  Payment by credit card after that time will incur a 5% surcharge.

RETURNS


No returns will be accepted without a Return Authorization Number, and then only if the shipment is prepaid.  Collect shipments will be refused.  The Return Authorization expires if the merchandise is not received by us within 10 days of issuance.   Merchandise not returned in absolute new condition and in its original packaging will not be accepted for return. 
Shipping charges, packing & handling charges and credit card processing fees are not refundable!

All returns are subject to a 20% restocking charge.

Defective products may be returned within 5 days of receipt with a Return Authorization Number and the returned shipment must be prepaid.  Upon verification that the product is defective, a replacement of the same product will immediately be shipped, freight prepaid by us.  We will also credit the return freight.

 

Returns must be shipped to:

Advantage Gripware
206 Handley Avenue
Roanoke, AL 36274

Please be sure your Return Authorization Number is prominently displayed on the package!

SHIPPING


All shipments are F.O.B. Roanoke, Alabama unless otherwise noted, with the purchaser assuming responsibility of all shipping and insurance charges.

Size permitting, most of our shipments within the U.S. are made via UPS.  When another carrier is requested, pick up arrangements are the responsibility of the customer. We have had problems with FedEx Ground reliability for pickups in our area.  For larger shipments, we often ship by common carrier (Truck LTL) 
Our truck rates are hard to beat!

International orders can only be shipped via customer's freight account.

All shipments are insured at the customer's expense.

We add a 10% service charge to all pre-paid shipments.

Due to the number of 48x48's  damaged in shipment, there will be an additional  $10.00 packaging charge on each 48x48 box shipped via UPS, FedEx or DHL.

Facts about Small Package Carriers

Packages with a total girth+length of 64" or less are considered standard and ship at actual weight for ground service.

Oversize - These packages have a girth+length of 64" or more and ship at a minimum of 30lbs or actual weight, which ever is greater.

Oversize 2 - When a package is over 64" but under 130" total girth+length, they are considered Oversize 2 and ship for a minimum of 70 lbs. or actual weight, which ever is greater.

The Facts about Oversize 3

UPS is now offer a new service which is known as Oversize 3.  This service allows a package that is larger than 130" combined (girth+length) but less than 165", to be shipped via small package carriers.  The catch is that a 48"x48"x5" standard 4x4 Scrim Box will ship as 90lbs, plus an additional "handling fee" of $30 to $40 dollars.   The actual average weight is usually less than 50 lbs.  This brings the average cost to about $75.00 to $90.00 per box! 
Please keep this in mind when ordering small quantities of 48x48's.

SHIPPING TERMS


Our responsibility ends upon delivery of goods to the freight carrier.   Any loss or damage incurred in transit is the responsibility of the carrier and the recipient is advised to note any visible damage on the bill of lading, prior to signing for the shipment and to notify the carrier immediately upon discovering hidden damage.

When shipments that are signed for without noting damage on the Bill of Lading, it is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to get a damage claim paid.

Please inform your receiving personnel of this!

We add a 10% service charge on all prepaid shipments.
