Order Damages and Lost Shipments (Contact Us)
If you receive your order damaged report this to us within 7 days of the delivery date. We consider ANY order damage free after 7 days of delivery to you. OPEN AND INSPECT MERCHANDISE AS SOON AS IT'S DELIVERED. REPORT DAMAGED SHIPPING PACKAGE TO THE CARRIER Immediately.

If your merchandise is damaged from shipping or your shipment is not received, we will work with the carrier to resolve this problem. This process may take 2-3 weeks for resolution by the Carrier (UPS, USPS). While we will work aggressively with the carrier please note that claims are made through the carrier. The process can require the carrier to research and investigate the shipment which unfortunately takes time. Once we have a confirmation that the claim has been settled we will reship or credit back the customer for Damages and lost packages.

Defective Merchandise (Contact Us)
Defective Merchandise must be returned for replacement/refund before a credit or reshipment is made by us. Contact us for return instructions.
If the defective product is needed immediately for an event,you may place another order for the product which will be treated as a new order (shipped immediately). Once you return the defective product to us we will issue a refund back to you for that item.
Defective/Shortage with VBS Starter Kits: The quickest way for replacement/repair is to contact the maker/publisher of the VBS Starter Pack and report the problem. Publishers will generally take care of the problem. Otherwise return the complete starter kit to us for a replacement. WE DO NOT GIVE REFUNDS FOR STARTER KITS FOR ANY REASON. SORRY NO EXCEPTIONS.

Order Discrepancies (Contact Us)
