SHIPPING:
Can I pick up my parts instead of having you ship them to me?
Yes, although its usually a better idea to ship. Our business is located in Washington state, which means if you come
to pick up your purchase we must charge you sales tax (if you live in the state and order from us online, we usually will take tax out of the cost we charge for shipping). If you decide to pick up your item,
do NOT order on the website - instead please
e-mail us and let us know that you're coming and when and what part number(s) you're looking to purchase. We are open from 8:30 to 4:30 PDT Monday through Friday,
closed for lunch from 11:30am-12:00pm. IF YOU PLACE AN ORDER ONLINE WE WILL CHARGE YOU SHIPPING AND SHIP THE ITEM - PLEASE DO NOT ORDER ONLINE IF YOU PLAN ON COMING IN TO PICK UP YOUR PURCHASE!
How much will shipping cost?
To ship to anywhere in the continental United States, simply add the items you're interested in to your cart and then click "secure checkout." Before you have to enter any information, PayPal will show you a total including the shipping charge. If you wish to have your item shipped outside of these 48 states (to Alaska, Hawaii, etc.) or to Canada, please contact us for a price quote.
How long after I order do you ship my item?
If you place your order before 3:00 PM PST, it will be shipped same-day unless the item states there is a lead time. If you place an order after 3:00 PM, it will be shipped the next day.
