If some products are out of stock at the time of your order, we will ship the in stock products immediately and the remaining items will ship via ground service as soon as stock is replenished. No additional shipping charges are applied for orders fulfilled with more than one shipment.

To get your items to you as quickly as possible, we pack orders continuously throughout the day and ship them every weekday. This can make changing or canceling an order difficult. However, we will make every effort to accommodate order changes or cancellations whenever possible. If you need to change or cancel an order, please contact Customer Service at 888-455-2800 as soon as possible.
