FedEx FAQs
- Will I get a tracking number for my order?
When we ship your package through FedEx you will receive an e-mail with your tracking number. We send a tracking number email for every order we ship via FedEx. If you placed an order and requested FedEx service you will receive an email to the email address you provided us when you placed the order. Take that number to our "Track your Package Page" and type in your tracking number. You will then be able to find out where it is and when it will arrive.
- I placed my order for “FedEx Overnight Delivery”. Will I receive it on the next day?
If you placed an order for “FedEx Overnight Delivery” during the work week (Monday – Thursday) before 3:00 PM Central time, then you will receive your order the next day. If you place your order on Friday for “FedEx Overnight Delivery”, then your order will be shipped on Friday, but will be delivered on the next business day - Monday. FedEx does not deliver on Sunday.

USPS FAQs
- Why can't I track my package?
Our USPS shipping services are shipped with delivery confirmation. This means that the only time you can "track" your package is once it's delivered. It is not uncommon for packages to not show an origin scan and only confirmation of delivery.
- I have used the USPS's tracking number to track my package on-line but there are no info on my package, what's going on?
If you have chosen USPS Priority Mail as your shipping method, please be aware that the US post office provides for most destinations a delivery confirmation service, not a tracking service, for Priority Mail shipments. With tracking service, packages are scanned at acceptance, in transit and at delivery. USPS delivery confirmation services are designed to be a low cost alternative to full tracking and primarily provide delivery information. Confirmation of delivery or attempted delivery is provided. Information is generally available on the evening of the date of delivery or attempted delivery.
- Why does it say no tracking info available when I track via usps.com?
If your order ships via the post office (USPS), your tracking information will not be available until your order has been delivered. This is actually delivery confirmation information you are trying to access as the post office does not offer tracking.
- When I track my package, it states the following: "The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper or shipping partner on _______ __, ____ to expect your package for mailing." What does this mean?
This is a sample screen of what it shows when you enter your tracking number on USPS.
If you have seen this message for many days, this means your package has been dropped off and USPS did not update an origin scan.
- I ordered memory and had it shipped via USPS. It never arrived! Can I have a refund?
Short answer: Not unless it is returned to us by USPS.
Long answer: We've seen a lot of abuse of our USPS shipping service recently, so we will no longer issue refunds or replacements for ANY orders sent via USPS, that are "lost in the mail" and that are NOT returned to us by USPS.
Here's how the abuse of the service works and why we had to adopt this policy. We are fully aware of this abuse, so please don't even try it:
USPS shipments have no tracking numbers.
Customer complains that package never arrived. Of course, because there's no tracking number we cannot prove it arrived or not.
Being good businesspeople we send out a free replacement via FedEx.
Hundreds of people do this.
We lose a lot of money.
We have to change our policy.
We are not removing the option to send orders via USPS. However, because of the actions of a large number of dishonest people, we have now adopted the policy that by selecting USPS as your shipping method you do so at your own risk.
