  5) Do we take credit cards?

          Express or Discover cards over the phone. The owners of these cards have to be present at the time of purchase to be accepted. A
          minimum purchase above $15.00 is required for any credit card being used due to bank charges for each transaction.

  6) Do we ship merchandise?
      a. Yes, we do. Our shipping services are U.S. Post Office and UPS. Understand using these services does require us to charge the shipping
          costs plus handling fees to the total purchase.

  7)  What is our return policy?
      a. If the item purchased is electronic in nature it can not be refunded, if the item was surplus it can only be exchanged.
      b. If the item is a lamp, bulb, fluorescent tupe, HID, Mercury Vabor, HPS they are not refundable or exchanged.
      c. If the item is electrical in nature; contactor, starter, ballast, parts, electromechanical, etc. It is a case by case basis, at the very least it may
         be exchanged. If a refund is granted, there will be a 20% restocking fee; unless it was a special order in which case it may not qualify as
         refundable. This is why we ask that what you order is absolutely what you want, guesswork is costly.

  8) What type of warrentee do we have on breakers?
      a. If the item is a Surplus Breaker; it is 6 months, exchange only; while supplies last. No refunds are provided in the case of obsolete breakers;
          they are purchased as is.

10) Do we special order items?
      a. If we are able to find products not normally stocked in our store, we may be able to order them for you. However, in these cases they are
          handled in a case by case basis. This usually means that what you wish us to order can NOT be returned, exchanged or refunded (unless it
          is proven to be a manufactured defect or received broken). It is largely dependent upon the item being ordered, the manufacture or
         supplier being ordered from, costs involved and shipping methods. It never hurts to ask.
