Terms & Conditions Regarding Purchases and Subscriptions

 
PRICING POLICY

Prices and offers are subject to change.

 
SALES TAX POLICY

In connection with the sales of goods, our website collects and remits sales tax as required by applicable federal and state laws.

 
PAYING FOR YOUR ORDER

You may pay for your orders with major debit and credit cards issued in the United States of America. Currently, we accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. Except for Recurring Orders, credit and debit cards are not charged until we ship the item(s) to you. However, we may pre-authorize your order amount with your credit or debit card issuer at the time you place the order, which may have an effect on your available credit line. Please contact your credit card issuer for more information.

 
VALIDATING YOUR ORDER

After you place an order using our shopping cart, we will check the information you give us for validity by verifying your method of payment or shipping address. We reserve the right to reject any order you place with us, and/or to limit quantities on any order, without giving any reason. If we reject your order, we will attempt to notify you using the e-mail address that you have provided us with the order. Your credit or debit card usually will not be charged if we reject an order, but we will process a refund if a charge is made against your card for an order that we have rejected.

 
ORDER ACCEPTANCE/CONFIRMATION

Your receipt of an electronic or other form of order confirmation does not signify our acceptance of your order, nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell. We reserve the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or decline your order for any reason. We reserve the right to limit or prohibit sales to dealers and resellers.

 
RETURN POLICY

All sales made through the Website are subject to our return policy. Your complete satisfaction is our top priority. If you are not 100% satisfied with your purchase for any reason, we will gladly accept returns of packages within 30 days of the shipment date and issue a full refund.

 
SHIPPING POLICY

We ship primarily via UPS, USPS, and other premium carriers to provide expedited service.

The following issues with orders may result in delayed shipping:

• Incorrect shipping address
• Shipping address does not match billing address
• Payment delay or issue
• Orders held because they contain a large quantity of a single item that would cause inventory depletion (note: this is an infrequent circumstance)
• Carrier failure to deliver (e.g. severe weather conditions)

 
TRACKING YOUR ORDER

When your order ships, you will receive an e-mail that may contain shipping and tracking information.

 
FINDING YOUR PACKAGE

If you have been provided with tracking information for your order, the tracking information shows that the order has been delivered, and you cannot find the package, be sure to check everywhere that a carrier may leave a package for delivery. Occasionally, carriers leave deliveries with neighbors, building managers, or places like your porch, garage, or even behind bushes. If there is no tracking information or the tracking information shows that the item was returned to us, please contact us by e-mail at info@commonwealthjoe.com. We may have been provided the wrong shipping address, the driver may have unsuccessfully attempted delivery, or the carrier may have lost the package.

 
IF YOU'RE NOT HOME WHEN A PACKAGE IS DELIVERED

It's up to the driver's discretion whether to require a signature for delivery, drop the package off at your doorstep, or to leave it with a building manager or doorman. If the driver believes that it is best to obtain a signature, he or she will try multiple times to secure a signature. When a package is returned as "undeliverable," you should get a full refund unless it is determined that the order was improperly refused. Undeliverable orders will not be resent. You must place a new order to receive your items.
