We
offer drop-shipping services to the connecting United
States, Hawaii and Alaska. We do not offer a
drop-shipping program for shipments into foreign
countries.
The
method of shipping is decided by the customer. Shipping
methods include the following: United Parcel Service and
Priority Mail. If choice is not indicated, the order
will he shipped by UPS when possible. Shipments to
Hawaii and Alaska will be shipped by Priority Mail
unless another shipping method is indicated by the
customer.
All
drop-shipments must be prepaid. Prepayment includes the
cost of the merchandise, freight charge and handling
charges. All drop-shipments will be charged a $4.00 handling fee per shipping
carton under $100.00. A $7.50 handling fee will be
charged for orders under $35.00. All
upgraded members pay only $4.00 handling for orders
under $100.00. No $7.50 fees apply to upgraded
members. U.P.S.
shipping charges are figured from the zone “7”
column (residential zoned) of the UPS rate chart.
Priority postage is figured from the zone “7” column
of the postage chart. Freight is figured by the weight
of the merchandise being shipped. The weight of each
item is listed in the catalog.
We
will pack similar items together when possible,
providing there will be no danger of damage to the
merchandise during shipping. Merchandise shipped in case
lots or shipments to one shipping address with a total
invoice amount of $100 or more will not be charged the
$4.00 handling fee. These drop-shipments will also be
figured with actual shipping charges rather than using
the drop-ship rate chart. In the event a drop-shipment
is returned to us by your customer, you will be
responsible for all freight and handling charges. A few
reasons for customer return shipments are “no reply to
carrier”, “incorrect shipping address” and
“held in will call for 7 days”.
The
special label used on drop-shipments is our “Dallas
Distribution Center”. This label cannot be traced back
to C&S Marketing. Your name will be included on the
label and on the “ship to” column of the packing
list as the distributor. See example below:
Researching
drop-shipments can become very involved. An invoice copy
of each drop-shipment will be mailed to your
organization. This copy is for your permanent records.
An additional copy will be placed in our files.
Should
you deem it necessary to check or trace a drop-shipment,
please provide the following information: your
customer number, the drop-ship customer’s name,
address, city, state, date and invoice number
