SHIPPING POLICY
In Myseatss.com. we offer the highest quality furniture for the lowest price online. All our items are brand new and come in original manufacturer sealed boxes. Please review our policies below and contact us for further information.
Delivery time
Unless otherwise stated, all our items ship out in 14-21 business days. Business days are Monday through Friday, not including weekends or public holidays. Custom orders may require a longer lead time of 8 -10 weeks, depending on the specific items. If time is a concern please contact us for approximated shipping date. In some cases we may be able to also assist you with "time critical" orders. This depends on the order size, product and cost, we ship nationwide using independent freight carriers. Seller will not be liable for any damage, loss, fault, or expenses arising out of delays in shipment or other non-performance of this Policy, including any claim of consequential or incidental damages.
Shipping cost
Shipping is not our business! We get the best rates in the industry and pass them over to you, the client has no hidden costs. Our prices are determined (not estimated) so you can be sure of what the total cost is. Since every computerized system has errors, myseatss.com. reserves the right to change the shipping charges even after the order was made. In that case the customer will have to approve the new shipping charge before the order had been finalized. In some instances it may not be possible to receive a shipping quote on the site. Depends on the product, size of the order and destination zip code - a customer service representative will contact you with the best possible freight rate.
Orders shipped via trucking company are shipped "tailgate" when delivery is to a business with dock height facilities. If there is no dock on premises, truck will park in designated loading zone nearby Customer is responsible to unloading freight from the truck within 30 minutes of truck arrival.
Lift gate service, Limited Access Delivery, Residential Delivery, "inside delivery" are available in most cases. Please remember to ask for it when placing an order since these services have to be scheduled with the freight company. Extra charges WILL apply for these services.
We reserve the right to bill you for shipping charges on refused shipments and any extra shipping charges as mentioned in our shipping appendix.
Shipping Damages and Freight claims
When a carrier (UPS or common) takes possession of a shipment, they sign and acknowledge receiving product in good order. Once they take possession, we are no longer responsible for the condition of the product(s) at time of delivery. All common carrier deliveries require a signature. It is the customer's responsibility to inspect the shipment prior to acceptance. If there is visible damage (i.e. Forklift punctures; shrink wrap is broken, torn, and cases are missing) then the customer must note the damage on the bill of lading. If you have no time to inspect the boxes upon delivery, please note the following on the Bill of Lading: "Boxes are subject to inspection at time of delivery. Customer will notify carrier of pending damage within 24 hours." This gives you time to look over the product, yet allows the carrier to know that possible damage may have occurred before you took possession of it. It is the responsibility of the customer to fill a damage claim with the carrier, myseatss.com. can help you file the claim on your behalf. The carrier will reimburse the customer for their loss.
Shipping Appendix
The definition of freight accessories or fees you may encounter are as follows:
- Lift Gate: The truck will be equipped with a platform to bring your delivery to the ground. This is recommended if you have no commercial dock or forklift.
- Inside Delivery: The freight company will bring your order to the threshold of your establishment. They will not traverse stairs. In case of stairs they will bring your order to your flight of stairs and no further.
- Limited Access Delivery: Limited access in this case refers to places with traditionally limited access- Schools, hospitals, churches, and other institutions of this sort may apply. If you are unsure if your delivery will incur this fee, please ask.
- Residential Delivery: If you are a residential customer, living in a residential neighborhood this charge is required for delivery. This charge may also be levied if your business is primarily in a residential neighborhood, or surrounded by houses.
- White Glove Service: This service is when the delivery company will not only bring all items into your store, but will unpack and assemble the items if required. This service is never offered unless specifically requested and paid for in advance. This service CANNOT be added to orders already in transit.
- Detention Fee: If the driver is detained past your allotted time for delivery functions you may be liable for a detention fee. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee, if required.
- Re delivery Fee: If an order must be redelivered for any reason you may be liable for a delivery fee. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee, if required.
- Re consignment Fee: If you are changing the delivery address of an order that is already in transit, you may be liable for a re consignment fee. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee, if required.
- Storage Fee: If your order must be stored at any point during the delivery outside of the expected delivery schedule you may be liable for storage fees. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee, if required.
- Paras Fail: For international orders, if your custom documents are not in proper order you may be charged this fee. It arises when customs documents are incorrect, not in proper order, or missing entirely. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee if required.
- Appointment Fee: The making of a specific drop off appointment may cost extra, depending on the shipping company. Should an appointment be placed with the shipping company they will usually charge this fee.

RETURNS AND CANCELLATIONS
Cancellation of order is possible prior to the production or packaging of the items ordered. Custom made products (using custom upholstery materials, special stains or finishes, size or shapes for example booths) cannot be returned or cancelled at any point because they were manufactured based on your specifications. You may be able to cancel or return items that are "stock items".
Returning or cancelling an order with "stock-items", involves a re-stocking fee of 30%. This also applies on orders which were packaged but were cancelled prior of shipping. In case of a return, you will forfeit all shipping expenses paid by you. All items must be returned in original manufacturer's boxes and will be inspected at time of arrival. You will also be responsible for packing the items, and all costs of doing so. Therefore, it is your responsibility to keep the original manufacturer's boxes and packing materials. In case of damage to the returned product, you will be charged the item's full price as appears on the original order. Shipping back the furniture is the responsibility of the customer and on his expense. Even if we mistakenly ship the wrong product, you are still responsible for packing the items on pallets for the return shipment. In these cases we will pick up the furniture.
Color/Texture Disclaimer: Stains may appear different on certain browsers and colors may not be accurate and textures may not be properly visualized as a result of photographic, Internet & computer inaccuracies and many other factors beyond our control. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that the product colors, textures and stains & grains you see displayed on this site are perfectly accurate. Furthermore, in natural wood products there is no offer of warranty when it comes to wood-grain or any effect it may cause in terms of pattern, texture, or color even with the receipt of a sample. We, unfortunately, have no control over natural wood grain.
WHEN YOU PLACE AN ORDER, you are accepting the limitations inherent in not directly viewing samples. If you have not received samples your approval of an order constitutes your waiver of any claim you may have due to dissatisfaction with the product colors, textures, stains & grains.

Please contact customer service for more information.

Normally linear segments of 72" and up or nonlinear segments of over 48" will be manufactured in multiple sections. For example, if you order a 150" booth, you will not receive it one piece. Instead and based on the shipping requirements we may split it into two pieces of 75" or 3 pieces of 50".
