Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What methods of payment can I use to place an order?

A: We accept Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Discover, and Paypal.

Q: When is my card charged for an order?

A: When your order is placed on our site, we will pre-authorize your card for the purchase amount. Once your order is confirmed as being in stock and we have allocated the purchased item(s) to your order so that we may begin processing shipment, your card will be charged for your purchase. Once your card is charged, your order is past the point of cancellation. If an item is backordered, your card will be charged when the item(s) is back in stock and the product has been allocated to your order.  

If you placed an order that includes multiple items, and one or more of the items are in stock, your card will be charged at the time of the purchase so that we may immediately allocate the in stock item(s) to your order.

For items that are made to order, such as custom upholstery, art, or any other items that are marked as "made to order" on the product page, your card will be charged once the made to order item(s) begins production, which is generally within 1-2 days of placing your order. 

Q: My card was charged but I didn't get tracking, what now?

A: As soon as the manufacturer notifies us that your item has arrived back in stock, our system is designed to automatically capture the pre-authorized amount disclosed in your order. Your tracking can still take up to 3-5 business days for small parcel items, and 7-10 business days for freight items, to arrive in your email.

Q: How do I apply a Promo code for an order?

A: You can use your promo code at checkout by entering the code on the shopping cart page. Once you type in your code, hit “Apply Code” and your discount will be reflected in the Order Summary. If a product is marked down for any reason, it is not eligible for any additional discounts.
