How do you protect my privacy?
Your information is secure with us - we only use
it to process your transaction and never share your information
with anyone. Ever!!! The only time we will ever use your email address
is to ask you a question concerning your order or smoking shelter.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is my credit card information safe with you?
This site utilizes Secure Sockets Layer, an advanced
data encryption system used to ensure the security and confidentiality
of information exchanged between your browser and the ShopSite e-commerce
server. All of your personal information (including credit card
numbers) will be encrypted and then transmitted from your browser
to the e-commerce system securely. This information is only viewed
by us. You will notice that it takes just a moment to connect into
the secure area and that there is a small lock icon on the bottom
right of your browser whenever you are prompted to enter information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When will my smoking shelter arrive?
You should expect to receive delivery within 10-14
business days in the 48 contiguous states unless otherwise noted.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How do I cancel my order?
To cancel your order, use our online help desk. Include
your order number, name, billing address, and items ordered. We'll
acknowledge your ticket upon receipt and let you know as soon as
possible if we were successful in canceling an order that has not
yet entered our shipping department or is on backorder.
Orders that are already in the shipping system cannot usually be
canceled although we will make every attempt to do so at your request.
The cancellation process is costly to us, so once an order has been
sent to our shipping department, or transmitted to a vendor for
shipment, there will be a cancellation fee of 5% of your order total
if we are able to cancel your order.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What methods of payment do you accept?
We accept Mastercard, Visa, American Express, Discover,
money orders, online Checks and regular checks. Please note that
we wait for all checks to clear the bank before shipping your smoking
shelter.
We will work with purchase orders - however we do
require payment before shipping.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tell me more about using my credit card to make a
purchase?
Your credit card will be billed at the time your
order enters the shipping process in our warehouse or is sent to
a vendor for factory-direct shipment.
Custom-made items that require production time may be billed well
in advance of delivery. Please do not be concerned as this is normal
for such items.
In the unusual event that we have not been notified of a backorder
prior to submitting an order to a vendor for factory-direct shipment,
you may be billed ahead of shipment.
Smokeshelters.com will not be responsible for delays in processing
your order if the credit card billing and shipping information that
you provide does not match the information on file with your credit
card company. For your own security, most credit card companies
maintain an "alternate address file" of authorized shipping addresses
for their cardholders. To advise your credit card company of an
authorized shipping address, please phone the number on the back
of your credit card and they will update your "alternate address
file" promptly.

What do I do when the shipment arrives?
Please Note:
With the Easy Shelter, and other items that ship by freight, the purchaser is responsible for getting the items off of the delivery truck. We recommend you have at least 2-4 people to help you remove your items. The driver is not responsible for removing the packages. Also, some freight trucks are not able to deliver up your driveway. You are then responsible to remove the items and transport them by other means, carry them or by pick-up truck, to your house. If you have questions please
Do not refuse delivery for minor damage.
If a package is damaged, check the contents for damage before refusing
delivery. If damage appears to be minor, and only a few items need
to be replaced, we recommend accepting the shipment (or at least
any undamaged packages) after making note of damages on delivery
receipt. Doing this will speed up the replacement process in many
cases because parts can be shipped sooner and faster delivery methods
can be used.
Inventory the shipment.
Check the number of boxes received against the number shown on the
driver's delivery sheet. If there is a shortage, write the number
of missing boxes on your copy and the driver's copy of the receipt,
and have the driver sign both copies.
If there is any problem with your shipment please contact us using
the online help desk - we will quickly make any arrangements needed
to fix any problems.
