Back Orders

If an item is currently backordered with the manufacturer, you will receive an email stating that the ordered item(s) are on backordered with the manufacturer, along with the current lead time given by the manufacturer.

You will also receive notification if we were able to locate the same item(s) (Direct Replacement) in stock with another manufacturer that can be shipped to you as a substitution for your item(s).

Please respond to the email to let us know that substitutions are okay or if you would rather place the order on backorder or if you would like to cancel your order for a full refund.

Orders will be placed on HOLD until we have received approval to substitute an item. We will not substitute without approval.

If we do not hear back from you, your item will then be placed on backorder with the manufacturer ordered after a period of 15 days and contact attempt was unsuccessful.

 

In the event of a partial shipment your order will be shipped with the originally chosen method with the exception of orders being shipped from Gates. These subsequent shipments will be sent through FedEx.

 

All backordered item(s) will ship according to the lead time provided and via the chosen method of shipment on checkout.

 

If an item goes on back order, the part of your order that is in stock will ship by the chosen method of shipment.  When the backordered item(s) become available, they will ship via the originally chosen method. You will not be charged any additional shipping and handling for the second shipment.
