Backorders

While in-stock items are usually shipped immediately, our back ordered items are shipped out as soon as they are available. If your order consists of all back ordered items, once each item is available, the item will ship, which may result in multiple shipments for a single order. Customers in the continental U.S. and all U.S. Territories will be charged for in-stock items when they are ordered. Your credit card will not be charged until back ordered items, plus any applicable taxes and fees have shipped. Canadian, overseas and APO/FPO customers will be charged for the entire order immediately, including back ordered items.

Return Refunds

From the date we receive your return at the warehouse, refunds for returns or core deposits normally process and credit within 30 days. We forward the return item or core to the manufacturer for approval once we receive it. The refund will be credited to the credit card or PayPal account used for you purchase once the return has been approved and processed. You will receive a “credit approved” email the day your refund credit has been issued. However, it may take 4-7 business days for your bank to post the credit to your account or credit card. Please contact our Returns Department if you do not receive a credit after 30 days from the date, we received your return. We will respond to you immediately.

When returning multiple items at the same time, you may receive a refund for only one item at a time due to the following:

1. If you received more than one set of RMA email instructions, it is important that you use each of these separately with the corresponding item(s). Sending all of the items together can result into a processing delay, as items may need to be returned to separate warehouses.
2. Part of your order may be approved, while further investigation is being done on the remaining item(s).
3. Items are processed separately. Credits are issued by individual items and not by order, so a credit is issued as we clear each item.

Core Deposits

Some parts require a core deposit price that is listed together with the part price. This is due to certain type of auto parts’ potential to be reconditioned, recycled, or remanufactured to OEM standards for future sale and use. Because they can be remanufactured, the components of these parts are to be returned. Known as the “core”, the components have a core deposit, which is then refunded when buyers return their old part. Send us your old part and the core deposit will be refunded to you. It is the customer’s responsibility to pay for Core-part return shipping. These shipping charges are not refundable.

Core-Part Deposit Refunds

We will refund the Core-Part deposit within 30 calendar days after we have received your Core-Part return and upon approved clearance by the manufacturer. In the event of a refused or reduced credit by the manufacturer, customers will be notified. To be eligible for the Core-Part deposit refund, the Core-Part must be returned within 30 calendar days of the original invoice purchase date.

Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA)

You must submit a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) request in order to make a return or exchange. After you request an RMA, we automatically send you an RMA number and instructions within 2-3 business days. Please contact Customer Service at 1-800-767-8468 if you have not received the RMA number with instructions by the third day. We can help expedite the process.

Multiple RMA numbers may be received due to:

1. The items may have been shipped from different warehouses. Some items need to be returned to the specific warehouses for processing.
2. Return requests may have been made at different times.

For a refund or exchange credit replacement product to be sent, we must receive the item within 14 days from the time you receive your RMA number.

Returns without an RMA Number

Your return will not be accepted and your refund will be jeopardized if you return a product with the Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number. Not writing the RMA number on the outside of the shipping box(es) may also jeopardize your return. Credit will not be issued if we cannot locate your return or if a valid return tracking number is unavailable.
