SHIPPING TO A DIFFERENT ADDRESS? 

If you need to ship to a different address, please assist us by doing the following: Contact your card issuer and have the alternate Ship- to Address added as an authorized shipping location in your account records or in the memo field. If you choose to ship to an address other than your billing address that has not been specified as an alternate Ship-to Address with your card-issuer, your order may be delayed by up to several days as we complete verification. We accept Visa, Master Card and American Express. We only charge items for items we ship. Back ordered items are not charged until they are shipped. Wire & Heater Orders shipping tolerance: -0/+10% of Qty. ordered. Since we have a $16 minimum order, TIPTEMP reserves the right to apply a $10 handling fee for orders under $16.00. When confirmation of order is received, this is to indicate that we have received your order. For orders over $400 we will transmit a pdf order form. This form must be signed and returned or emailed with your acceptance. It acknowledges your agreement to our terms and conditions. We will indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract between us, when we send you an invoice or charge your credit card. We have included this term to protect both the client and TIPTEMP the corporation in the case that a mistake has been made in pricing, we have inadvertently priced goods, or we are no longer able to supply a particular product for some reason. In the case of a change of price, we will always contact you first to ensure that the price is acceptable. Also, please note that pricing is subject to change without notice.

Shipping And Handling 

Shipping and handling charges are unknown at the time of order, charges are determined when the order ships via UPS or FedEx. Also, UPS and FedEx now ships based on package size not package weight.
