All orders received by 3:00 Pacific Daylight Time in California, will
ship the same day. Orders received after that time, will ship the next business
day. Orders received on weekends, state and federal holidays will be shipped
the following business day.
*NOTE: The definition of "Next Day"
or "Guaranteed Overnight" services, vary from person to person,
and between delivery companies. Basically, the rule applies that if you
live within a reasonably close proximity to a major metropolitan airport
or terminal, these companies can deliver to you very easily. If, however,
you live in rural Alaska, or out in the mountains somewhere, in a "remote
out of the way" place, it will usually take two days no matter which
service you use. Also, no addresses which are a Rural Route Box or Post
Office Box, can be guaranteed next day by private carriers. Any address
which is a United States Post Office Box, must
be served by the U.S. Postal System only.
No insurance or guarantees of any kind apply in Mexico, or any other
South American countries, as nearly no insurance is available, and because
packages notoriously disappear.
Special services beyond those discussed here, will/may be subject to
special rates, restrictions, etc. Please contact our customer
service department for more information.
DELIVERY WITHIN THE USA
Orders of regular stock within the continental USA. will be sent
either by USPS (United States Postal Service) or private carrier services
(Airborne). Orders over $100.00 will be sent via private carrier. This can
vary the delivery time depending on factors beyond the immediate control
of extremeaudio.com. We promise to ship
your order quickly, but we are not responsible for the carrier's reliability.
Private carrier companies often require a signature, and won't deliver to
a post office box, nor on weekends. For special services or shipping arrangements,
please call us in California, USA at (916)887-3229 or fax us at (916)887-3226.
INTERNATIONAL (Non-USA) DELIVERY
extremeaudio.com is not responsible
for delivery of any packages or products shipped outside the United States
and Canada. Refunds and/or claims made by non-USA customers will be treated
on a case by case basis. For answers to specific questions, check with the
USPS or international shipping company. EA
always declares the accurate monetary value on all shipments outside the
USA, on the customs sticker as required by law.
CUSTOMS / FEES
In keeping with international postal and shipping regulations we
do not pay taxes, fees, duties, customs, fees charged by your local government.

may incur local duties, customs, or other regional taxes, fees, or restrictions.
These fees vary and are determined by the destination country. These fees
are to be paid by the recipient at the time of the delivery.
INTERNATIONAL BACKORDERS
Non-USA shipments will be held until all items can be shipped, to
avoid redundant mailing costs. In such an event, you may decide to have
all the available items shipped immediately, and cancel the unavailable
items.

address information will be charged additional fees for reshipping.
UNCOLLECTED DELIVERIES

remains unreceived, and returned to extremeaudio.com,
we will attempt to contact the intended customer to correct the situation.
After that, it is up to the customer to contact EA
to arrange for reshipment.

for the first item, $0.50 cents for the next five items up to a maximum
