---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Take advantage of FREE shipping!  Most orders over $100 are shipped ground at our expense within the continental United States! 

Audio-Depot ships most domestic packages via FedEx Ground or USPS unless otherwise instructed. 

Most Canadian orders are shipped via USPS.  Large items not shippable by USPS may require a Brokers License Number.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

International Orders (other than Canada): 

PLEASE NOTE:  Audio-Depot is temporarily unable to accept PayPal.  This means that we cannot accept overseas orders at this time either.  We hope to have this situation corrected in a few days.

We do not accept credit card orders from outside of the United States and Canada.  We can accept payment by PayPal, but we can only ship to an authorized and confirmed PayPal address.  We reserve the right to refuse orders that are unable to be shipped by Post.

Please note that the products we sell operate on standard United States 120 volt (110 to 125 volt) 60 Hz power, and may or may not have a 220 volt/50 Hz option.  It is the buyer's responsibility to make sure that a product produced for the U.S. market will work in their country.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Almost all orders are shipped the same day that they are ordered with a 2:00 pm CST cut-off for same-day shipments.  Incorrect credit card information will delay your shipment.  Most orders, especially smaller ones, are received by the customer within 3 business days.

For everyone's protection, we only ship to addresses approved by the card holder through their bank.  Alternate shipping addresses can easily be added to your credit card without changing the billing address by calling the card-issuing bank's toll free number (found on the back of the card).  Simply ask to add an 'alternate shipping address'.  This simple security measure stops nearly 100% of the fraud that we encounter.

For your protection, please check for damage that may have occurred in transit before signing for any package.

Unlike many on-line companies, Audio-Depot DOES NOT ship open-box and/or B-stock and/or refurbished items as though the items were new!  If we cracked the box for any reason, it is listed as such on our website. 

Audio-Depot is celebrating 13 years of providing superior customer service and products to the DJ and Pro-Audio Communities.  Thank you for your support!

Audio-Depot is committed to reducing, re-using, and recycling.  All orders are securely and professionally packed with re-used materials received from manufacturers.  Examples of re-used packing materials may include cardboard, bubble wrap, or styrofoam that we have received from manufacturers.  In addition we may use items that would have otherwise gone to the landfill, such as shrink-wrap that had been used to wrap pallets, plastic bags that were used by manufacturers to individually wrap products, etc. 

Re-using is less efficient and less cost effective than throwing it all in the trash and buying new boxes and packing materials, but we are committed to doing our part for the environment!  In our 13 years of serving the Pro-Audio Community, we have never once purchased packing or shipping supplies other than tape. Please pass it on by re-using or recycling the packing materials that you receive from us!
