Questions buyers ask.
Standard terms, in plain language. Your written quote is the final word on any order.
How do I pay?
P-Card is accepted at the time of order. Agencies with an approved purchase order can ask for invoice terms. First orders may be paid by P-Card or in advance.
How long is a quote good for, and when is an order final?
Quotes are valid for 14 days because manufacturer and distributor prices change. An order is confirmed when we receive your purchase order or card payment against the written quote.
What does shipping cost, and when will my order arrive?
Shipping is built into the quoted price unless the quote says otherwise. Every quote shows an estimated delivery date, which depends on stock. If an item is delayed or backordered, we tell you right away so you can wait, substitute or cancel.
Is there a minimum order?
There is no minimum to request a quote. Very small orders may carry a handling fee, and it is always shown on the quote before you approve.
What is your return policy?
If an item arrives wrong, damaged or defective, tell us within 7 days of delivery with photos where possible and we will replace it or issue a credit. Other returns are accepted only when the manufacturer or distributor accepts them, and any restocking fee is passed through. Opened medical and PPE items, consumables, special-order items and custom-sized or custom-decorated uniforms are final sale.
Can an order be cancelled?
Yes, before it ships and at no charge. Special-order and custom items cannot be cancelled once ordered. After shipping, the return policy applies.
Do you substitute products?
Never without your written approval. If an item is unavailable, we send a comparable option for your approval.
Do you charge sales tax?
Oregon has no general sales tax, so Oregon orders carry none. Orders shipped to another state may be subject to that state's rules unless an exemption certificate is on file.
What about warranties and product claims?
We are a reseller. Items are supplied as made by the manufacturer, and manufacturer warranties pass through to you. Please confirm that a product meets your own specifications and safety requirements before ordering, especially medical and PPE items.
Can you support federal and grant-funded purchases?
We are registered on SAM.gov and confirm country of origin item by item on request. If your purchase carries Buy American, TAA or other special requirements, tell us when you request the quote.
What paperwork can you provide?
W-9, UEI and vendor registration details are available on request. A downloadable W-9 will be added to this page soon.
