ORDERS - We strive to process your order quickly. You will receive an acknowledgment for your order that describes what you ordered, the pricing, the delivery, shipping address, billing address and other terms.

COMMUNICATION – We will promptly answer any questions or call if we have questions concerning your order. We will strive to make sure that we both understand the product specifications before we start production of special items.

PRODUCT QUALITY – Product quality is guaranteed to meet the specifications when the order was accepted. We will work to correct any problems.

ORDER CANCELLATIONS - The customer may cancel their order for any reason prior to shipment. Cancellations for special orders are subject to charges for labor and materials completed or furnished as of the date of the cancellation. Every effort will be made to accommodate the cancellation of your order, providing your order has not been charged and/or shipped out. In the event that a cancellation was submitted before your order for a standard item was already shipped, we will gladly refund the complete balance charged including shipping. However, if the cancellation was documented as received after the order was shipped, we will issue a refund for the merchandise total (less shipping) upon its return to our facility.

Cancellations must be confirmed in writing by e-mail <donpetsch@gmail.com> Cancellations must contain the following: First name, last name, order number, and email address.

Please provide contact information so that we may contact you if we have questions in regards to canceling your order. Refunds will be issued in the same form payment was made. Please allow 10 days for processing.

An immediate credit will be issued (upon your request) to your method of payment.

SHIPPING POLICY – Standard stock items are shipped, on average, within 2 to 3 days from the time your order is placed.
