PARTIAL SHIPMENTS:
We make every effort to ship all products in a single shipment. If, for any reason, we cannot ship one or more items due to back order, we will ship the parts that are available and credit your account accordingly. If a small item (most parts) from a large order (complete car, truck, or boat kits) cannot be shipped, credit may only be for the part without an adjustment in shipping. This is because shipping charges is based on the dimensions of the box. We will contact you if the part is back ordered to verify if you are willing to wait for the back ordered part to ship.

Cancellation of orders already being processed by our shipping department will be subject to a 10% cancellation fee based on the total amount of the order.
