Shipping & Returns


HOW ARE PRODUCTS SHIPPED? 

  

Orders are shipped Monday to Friday. Orders placed before 11:00 am PST will generally be shipped out on the same day*. Orders placed after 11:00 am PST will generally be shipped out on the following day with the exception of orders placed on a Friday. Those orders will ship out on the following Monday or next Business day (if Monday is a holiday). You will be notified via email once your order has been shipped. Shipping times are in business days and can vary based on method chosen and delivery location. International orders must clear import/export regulations which could add to the shipping time of an order. International customers will be responsible for all taxes and duties associated with the shipment of their order.

Orders are shipped via the method chosen at the time the order was placed. Please note that all shipping times are in business days. We currently offer 3 shipping methods for Domestic orders (Contiguous / Lower 48 States): Ground (7-14 Business Days), 2-Day Shipping, and Next Business Day Shipping. We currently only have 2-Day Shipping available for orders to Hawaii and Alaska.

HOW DO PREORDERS WORK?

Preorders allow you to purchase an item that has not yet been released for shipping. The preorder purchase will guarantee you the quantity of the item you purchased when it becomes available. Preorder items are clearly marked as preorders with the “add to cart” button changing to a “preorder” button. There will also be an expected shipment date listed on the product page.

The preorder process works as follows:

  • You add the product(s) to your cart as you would any regular, in stock product
  • You complete the checkout process and receive your order confirmation Your payment method is billed for the full order total at the time of purchase (completing the order)
  • Your order will be on preorder hold until the item(s) you purchased are available
  • When the item(s) becomes available to ship, your order will be fulfilled. You will then receive a shipment confirmation email with a tracking number to track your order.
  • If you ordered both a preordered product and an in stock product, you will be billed for all products at the time of purchase. The in stock product(s) will be processed and shipped without delay and you will received a shipment confirmation email containing your tracking information. The preordered product(s) will remain on preorder until available. At that time, the product(s) will be released for fulfillment and shipment and you will receive a second shipment confirmation email containing your tracking informaiton.

WHAT HAPPENS IF MY SHIPMENT IS REFUSED/CANNOT BE DELIVERED?

Shipped items that are either refused by the customer or cannot be delivered by the carrier, will be returned to Hard Tail Forever and the customer will be credited for the product cost and tax, less shipping, and handling.
