Terms and Conditions

SALES TAX

Shipment or pickup within the state of Arizona is subject to state and local sales tax, except organizations furnishing tax exemption documentation and completion of any required forms. Sales Outside of Arizona must be self assessed with your local tax authorities. With recent changes in national sales tax regulation, these terms may change. Drop ship orders will be taxed based upon destination and manufacturers requirements.

SHIPPING

Free shipping may apply to products purchased for delivery in the continental United States and at the stated pricing and terms shown. Products will be sent for delivery via carrier and terms of EAR’s choosing. This is typically UPS standard delivery. Upgrades to priority shipping are not covered by “free shipping” offer.  All other shipments are F.O.B. Phoenix, Arizona, or manufacturers’ dock if drop shipped. All shipping charges are an additional cost unless otherwise stated prior to point of order.

All shipping pricing is based upon domestic (US) shipping destinations only. Prices are based upon best available information and subject to change. If the price shown at point of sale is correct, we will bill your credit card accordingly. All exceptions must be approved prior to shipment via phone or email.

DAMAGED ITEMS

Upon receiving any new or used merchandise the product should be inspected immediately for any shipping damage or original defects.

It is the responsibility of the buyers to report any visible shipping damage immediately to the shipment carrier and clearly marked on the shipper’s received receipt. Then the buyer should call EAR for further resolution of the problem. All shipments unless specified at point of sale are shipped F.O.B. Phoenix, Arizona, and insured only for the standard shipper’s per carton insured amount. Special or additional insurance is at customer discretion and additional expense.

PAYMENT METHOD

EAR accepts payment via all most major credit cards.

Unless otherwise stated, all prices are based upon cash payment. Depending upon the item(s) purchased EAR reserves the right to offer items for sales at a reduced price for cash or bank wire transfer in advance.
