How & When We Ship
In-Stock Items – We’re able to
ship most of our in-stock items within 1 business day of receiving your
order and payment information. Exceptions include full, un-cut sheet goods
(King Starboard, plywood, acrylics, etc) that are too large to ship by UPS
or the U.S. Postal Service. These must be packed on pallets and sent by
truck freight. Even then, we can ship within 3 business days of completing
your transaction.
Milled Lumber & Sheet Goods – We can
generally cut these into smaller sizes for more economical shipping with
little or no time delay. But if you need big teak boards or a 4’ x 8’
sheet of something carved up into multiple pieces – each with its own
precise dimension – that spills down into the next category, which is…
Custom Orders – Several of our
products are built-to-order and/or incorporate various buyer
options. And a fair number are flat-out custom projects. This means we
can’t ship it until it’s built, and production times will vary according
to the level of customization and our workload. For the most part, we can
build and ship things such as boat doors, fish cleaning tables, dinghy
chocks and the like within 10 business days – and we note estimated
shipping times wherever it makes sense on our product pages. Otherwise,
please give us a call toll-free, 877-743-4090, to get a delivery estimate
before you place your order.
Cancellations
In-Stock Items – So long as you cancel
an order before we have it packed up for shipment, you will not be charged
a dime. But if it’s all packed up and the shipping paperwork is done,
there will be a 15% restocking fee.
Custom & Semi-Custom Items – If you
cancel your order before work has begun, no charge for anything. However,
if we’ve already begun work on your project, you will be charged for any
CNC design and/or set-up work performed; any other labor costs for shop
time; and for any materials used up to the point of your cancellation. If
you cancel after we’ve already built your product, please refer to the
next section.
Returns/Refunds
Damaged Goods – We try to make our
packaging bullet-proof, and we insure almost everything we ship; so if
it’s damaged in-transit we can recover the cost and you’ll incur no
expense as a result. However,
if your package shows any damage, it’s your responsibility to make a note
on the carrier’s delivery paperwork and/or refuse to accept the shipment.
If you do sign for any shipment, that means you have accepted it as being
in good condition. Once you’ve done that we can’t take responsibility for
any damage you might find later. If you refuse a shipment because it
appears damaged, you must contact us with 2 business days – toll-free,
877-743-4090, or by email.
In-Stock Items – If you buy an
in-stock product that we haven’t customized or altered for you in any way
(hardware items, teak molding & accessories, dinghy chocks, standard
sheet-good sizes of full-sheet, half-sheet or, where offered,
quarter-sheet) you can return it to us within 30 days in its original, undamaged
condition and packaging for a full refund less any shipping & handling
costs, plus a 15% restocking fee. We cannot accept returns of sheet goods
that have been purchased by the square foot, or any items cut or altered
to your specifications.
Custom & Semi-Custom Items – We go to
considerable lengths to make sure built-to-order products conform to the
specifications you provide, from milling sheet goods and/or lumber to
specific sizes, to getting any color and/or hardware options right. We’ll
confirm these with you via email before producing such work – and if we
mess up, simply return the product within 30 days and we’ll refund the full purchase
price and shipping costs. Here again, though, if we accurately build a
product to the specifications you give us and it turns out to be the wrong
size or is otherwise unusable, we cannot refund your money.
