Policies, & FAQ


At present due to COVID-19, many supply chain shortages, and lack of employees from some of our suppliers, and shipping agents, there may be longer shipping times, handling times, and some items will need to be shipped from one or other of our other warehouses which may add to longer shipping times. We appreciate your understanding in these matters. Hopefully this will change when President Trump gets re-elected.
