Tips for a better online experience (What you should know)

TEST YOUR PRODUCT IMMEDIATELY (It is your responsibility)

DO NOT WAIT TO CHECK OUT YOUR PRODUCT. The warranty starts from the day you purchased it, unless the product was back-ordered, in which case it starts from the date of shipment. NOT the day you first opened it. If it is a gift, then open it up, test it thoroughly and pack it back up. Make sure you inspect it for damage. If the box looks like it was in a fight with the UPS conveyors, refuse to accept it or open it up while the UPS (or FedEx) guy is still there and check it for any damage. If it is left in ugly condition while you were out, call UPS (or FedEx) back and refuse it. If you plan to mount or install it someplace, test it before mounting or installing it.

SAVE YOUR PACKING MATERIAL

No Manufacturer wants to take back any item that is not in the original box and includes all accessories, including the manuals (if any). So DO NOT TOSS OUT YOUR BOX. And DO NOT DESTROY THE PACKING MATERIAL. Keep everything for at least 3 months or to the end of your warranty period. I know, I hate it too, but lets face it, they have a right to get back everything, if you want them to replace it. Toss the box in the back of a closet and forget about it until you need it or a few months have passed. Some manufacturers will refuse the Return if the original box and packing is NOT intact. On heavier items, open the box, fold back the lid and flip it over and lift the box off the item. This is a good way to keep from ripping the shred out of the packing material. Open the bottom of the box so that it will lay flat and you can store it under the bed, or just about anyplace out of the way.

RETURNS 15% RESTOCKING FEE: (10% if you use PayPal) (25% Restocking Fee for Returns Sent to Our Office)

DO NOT SEND RETURNS WITHOUT AN RA#. They could be rejected and you will loose your shipping. Returns go to different manufacturers, so request an RA# and wait for the right address. Please save your original box just in case you need to send your item back. With most of our products, you can return them within the first 30 days from your order. There is a no return policy for Vu Qubes, 12 Volt Heaters nor 12 Volt Blankets, nor Open Electronics (TireStat, GPS, etc.). There is a 14 day return on non-opened electronics. See our Return Policy. The link is on the Policy menu and at the bottom of every page under the Blue strip. Please do not try and make a return past the Return Policy period. It is not fair to us and will only cause you aggravation when your return is refused. We need to be able to return the item to the manufacturer or we will not be refunded. 7 days is enough to decide to return a product. We give you 30 days on most products which is more than adequate.

REPAIRS / REPLACEMENTS

You have at least 90 days for a repair or replacement on most items. If you need to return or exchange an item, simply reply back to this Email with your Sales Order still in the Subject and give a brief description of the issue. We will get you a Return Authorization.
Do not send a return back without a Return Authorization as it may be rejected and you will loose your shipping. Please do not try and return items after the warranty has expired, as most manufactures will send it back to you and you will loose your shipping. Many products have a warranty period longer than 90 days. For those products you can contact the manufacturers directly, but we will also help you as long as the warranty is valid.

TRACKING

We have a "Shipping Guide" on every product's detailed page, that will help you determine when you will get that product. It has a color UPS Shipping Map to show you how many days, it will be in transit.
For those not familiar with Tracking numbers, you go to UPS.com, FedEx.com or USPS.com and enter the Tracking number sent to you. The numbers starting with 1Z are UPS, the numbers that are all numbers (no letter) are FedEx and the ones that end in US are for the US Post Office. For Trucker Freight, we give you the Trucking company name and Pro number.

Feedback

For those who like to leave feedback, we ask that you keep 1 things in mind. Be kind.

Last, a copy of your order follows. Once again, Thank you for shopping at DriverLogBooks.com. We appreciate you and your business.

3: Tracking Email

Finally DriverLogBooks sends you an Email with your tracking number, so you can track where your package is and when it is expected to arrive. In general items are sent FedEx, UPS or USPS, but can possibly be sent via freight.
