IMPORTANT SHIPPING INFORMATION

Some items may be too large or too heavy to be shipped by the method you have chosen, or to your chosen destination. Oversized and heavyweight items can not be shipped via UPS. Some items (for example, all TV's over 20") can only be shipped by trucking companies. In these instances, shipping prices are subject to increase, based upon size and weight. In any event, we will contact you to inform you about the shipping charges, and only ship your order upon approval. Orders generally take two to five business days to process prior to shipping. However, orders may not ship quickly if we and our suppliers are out of stock. We cannot and do not guarantee shipping in any specific time frame. If you call us, we will give you an estimate to the best of our knowledge.

PRICING AND AVAILABILITY POLICY:

Pricing and availability are subject to change without notice. Worldwide Link, Inc. has no liability in the case of orders arising from typographical errors and reserves the right to cancel any orders without assigning any reasons. Every effort has been made to ensure accuracy of information listed and Worldwide Link, Inc. is not responsible for any errors contained therein.


PAYMENT POLICY:

We accept Wire Transfers, Pay Pal, American Express, MasterCard, Visa & Discover. Your card may be billed once the order is received or once the order is processed and ready to be shipped, depending on the product and on each case.  Cashiers checks, money orders, company check and personal checks are also accepted as means of payment. These should be sent along with a printout of your order to:  Worldwide Link, Inc. 5968 West Northwest Hwy., Suite 1737, Dallas, TX 75225.  In all cases, the product might not be shipped until the funds are totally clear in Worldwide Link, Inc.'s Bank Account.  For Cashier’s check and money order payments, orders are usually released immediately on receipt of the payment document by Worldwide Link, Inc. For company and personal checks, orders will be shipping only after funds are released from your financial institution to Worldwide Link, Inc. This could take up to 10 business days after receipt of payment by Worldwide Link, Inc. All checks returned unpaid will be subject to a $30.00 fee charged to you. On orders being paid for by means other than credit card, availability of the product might change while your payment is in transit or funds are being cleared and Worldwide Link, Inc. cannot reserve or guaranty continued availability.

When using your credit card be sure to provide your exact billing and shipping addresses and phone numbers your credit card has on file on you. Incorrect information may cause a delay in processing your order.


ORDER ACCEPTANCE POLICY:

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. Worldwide Link, Inc. reserves the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or decline your order for any reason. Worldwide Link, Inc. reserves the right at any time after receipt of your order, without prior notice to you, to supply less than the quantity you ordered of any item. All order placed over $100.00 must obtain pre approval with an acceptable method of payment, as established by our credit and fraud avoidance department. We may require verifications or information before accepting any order.


CANCELLATION POLICY:

Once you place the order, we will proceed to ship from stock or place a purchase order to the manufacturer and have them ship directly to you. Since generally we are not allowed to return purchased items, we cannot accept cancellations. So please be sure about the purchase you are making. Once you do it, it is final.  However,

       If you call and want to cancel the order before we have processed it in our system, we will gladly cancel it, but will need to charge you a $10 cancellation fee.

       If you call and want to cancel the order after we have processed in our system, but the product has not shipped yet: Provided that we can stop the shipment, we will gladly cancel your order, but will have to charge you a $25 cancellation fee.

       If product has shipped: NO CANCELLATION WILL BE POSSIBLE.  Please refer to our Returns policy.

In case we can and do cancel your order, please insist on obtaining a cancellation notice from us IN WRITING. Otherwise the item may be shipped and therefore we will charge your credit card, even if you reject the shipment.  Once the product has shipped, it is yours.

REPLACEMENTS POLICY

Worldwide Link reserves the right to accept to replace a product, even if defective upon receipt.  However, in most cases, if the product arrives defective or damaged & you call us within 48 hrs of receipt, we will give you instructions and send a replacement UPON receipt of damaged unit. In many cases you will need to cover the shipping cost of the damaged unit and we will cover the cost of shipping the replacement to you.  Please only use UPS or FEDEX, insure the product for the total amount including shipping and obtain and email us the Tracking number.  If you want to avoid paying the shipping cost of the damaged unit back to us (or to our supplier), you can always call the Manufacturer and have them give you instructions for the repair or replacement (as per their policy).  If the product arrives in good condition and after some time malfunctions, you need to contact the Manufacturer directly for warranty information.


RETURN POLICY

Some customers abuse the fact that it is common for Department Stores and Large Retail Chains to accept returns with no questions asked.  We cannot accept returns unless our supplier accepts it, and in case they do, we are usually subject to a high restocking fee. Therefore, please be advised that Worldwide Link, Inc. is not obligated to accept returns or to replace any product.  Please contact the Manufacturer for warranty information.  However, we will make exceptions on a case by case basis.  If we decide to accept a return or make a replacement, we would need to issue a Return Authorization (RA#). Without the RA#, no refund will ever be given, even if the customer ships the product(s) back to us or to our suppliers. In other words, you need to communicate with us before taking any action.  Assuming an RA# and instructions are given to you, and assuming we accepted to give you a refund, we will still charge a re-stocking fee of 25% of the value of the product plus a $15 processing fee, and refund the difference. No freight cost (either way) will be refunded, which means that you have to pay for the return freight

SALES TAX:

If required by law, Worldwide Link, Inc. will add sales tax to the order to be paid by the customer. Applicable sales tax will be charged on all orders to be delivered in the state of Texas.

WARRANTY INFORMATION:

Some surplus products are sold “AS-IS” with no Warranty while other Products purchased from Worldwide Link, Inc. carry full manufacturer’s warranty in which case, issues arising from the same must be taken up directly with the manufacturers.  Unless specifically stated in writing and on the bill of sale, Worldwide Link, Inc. does not offer a Warranty of any kind on products sold to its clients.  Please ask on a per transaction basis if interested in Warranty information.

INTERNATIONAL ORDERS

Worldwide Link, Inc. does Export too many countries. We do accept international orders, but only to wholesalers or resellers and with a minimum order of $2,500. For international orders, we only accept wire transfers in advance or Letters of Credit.

SHIPPING POLICY:
