Freight / Shipping:
Damage :
Damaged merchandise will be replaced and/or repaired at our discretion. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to inspect ALL shipments received for freight damage. If you find that merchandise has been damaged while in shipping, simply refuse the shipment unless it is shipped via FedEx / UPS.
If the item is shipped via truck, make the truck driver wait for you while you inspect the item. Failure to inspect the item will result in loss of protection.
If you cannot check the item at the time of delivery, or if the trucking company will not give you the time to check, MARK THE PACKAGE DAMAGED , and keep the box for review later. If the item happens to have concealed damage, we will then be able to process a return claim.
If UPS / FedEx leave the package at the door and you are not available to inspect it for freight damage, you need to call your FedEx / UPS office within 24 hours of delivery and file an immediate freight claim to report damage in addition to calling us for replacement parts.
LTL / Truck Delivery :
All items shipped via private truck carrier will be delivered "to the back of the truck" only. Should a customer request any additional services prior to, or at the time of delivery there may be additional charges applicable. If additional services are not prearranged with Podium and Lectern Store prior to shipment and requested by the customer to the carrier at the point of delivery, customer will be responsible for all additional charges.
Damaged / DOA / Defective Items :
If your item arrives Damaged, Dead on Arrival (DOA) or is defective upon receipt, please contact Customer Service immediately for an RMA #. DOA / Defective items can be returned for exchange only. If you do not want a replacement unit sent out, then the standard return policy and restocking fee will be applicable to the order.
Pricing Errors :
Items in your Shopping Cart will always reflect the most recent price displayed on the item's product detail page. Please note that this price may differ from the price shown for the item when you first placed it in your cart. Placing an item in your cart does not reserve the price shown at that time. It is also possible that an item's price may decrease between the time you place it in your cart and the time you purchase it.
Despite our best efforts, a small number of the items in our tremendous selection may be mis-priced. If an item's correct price is higher than our stated price, we will attempt to contact you for instructions before shipping or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation.
Length of time for the issued credit to appear in your account is based on your individual bank or card issuer.
