Monkey Depot

Last updated 12/2/08
Shipping:
Monkey Depot ships orders Monday through Friday. Orders are processed and shipped in the order they are received. Normally orders placed before noon ship that same day or next business day. However, during especially busy periods, it can take 2 business days for an order to be processed and shipped.
The shipping rate you are quoted during checkout is only an estimate, we may need to contact you for additional shipping charges due to an item(s) pushing the size or weight into a different shipping tier.
Any order can have a signature attached to it. Signature may cost up to $6.00. Please make a note on the order or email us with the order number.
We reserve the right to attach a direct signature to any order
Only Domestic FedEx 2Day and FedEx Overnight are guaranteed

Combine Order

If this is selected during checkout we will combine it with any orders placed earlier. If additional shipping charges are required we will contact you (this may delay the order being shipped that day). Selecting this option does not guarantee it will be combined, that depends on if the prior order(s) have not already been processed and shipped. We start processing orders at 8:00am (AZ time) so any orders placed after this time have a smaller chance of being combined. You could always try to call or email us to see if we could still get them combined. We will not pay for any shipping if we are unable to get your orders combined. All combined orders must be paid for within 7 days or they will be cancelled.

In-Store Pickup/Hold Order

Only select this option if you plan on coming into our shop to pickup your order, delay paying for your preorder shipping or if you want us to hold the order for you. We will hold orders as long as you need, as long as the order is paid in full. Once you are ready to have all held orders shipped you need to either make a note on the final order stating "Ship all held orders" or call/email us explaining that you want all held orders shipped. If after all orders are combined and additional shipping charges are needed we will contact you. All held orders must be paid for within 7 days or they will be cancelled. Please see additional policies on "Held Orders" below in the "Flex Pay" Section regarding removing items.

Box Conditions

If you require a mint box we will do our best to accommodate your request but please understand that some of the boxes that arrive from our distributors may already have damage on them but we will do our best to send out the best looking box that we have left. We also can not guarantee it will arrive mint as we do not hand deliver packages. We will not issue discounts, credits or refunds on the item or shipping cost if the box arrives damaged.
If an item is missing from your order and we still have the item here, we will ship it to you at no charge (we will choose the shipping method).

Please read the guidelines for shipping below

Domestic (US) shipping guidelines

Overseas (outside the US) shipping guidelines

Returns:
We want you to be satisfied with your order. However, should anything not be to your satisfaction, you can return the item for a refund minus the shipping charges. If there needs to be a return due to a mistake on our part, we will pay all shipping charges. All items must be returned in the same condition as they were received. You have 7 days from receipt of order to let us know of a problem with your order. All returns MUST have a Return Authorization from Monkey Depot prior to being sent back.
Monkey Depot can not be held responsible for any items that may stain or mark up bodies, clothing or other pieces even if the manufacturer makes claims that their product will not do so.

Factory Defects:
The different manufacturers that we carry each have different rules as to how they like to handle defects. Should you receive a packaged item that is damaged from the manufacturer, please let us know and we will let you know where to send it for an exchange. In most cases, Monkey Depot will handle the exchange and the shipping fees.

Payment Methods:
Credit cards
We accept all major credit cards for payment. Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover. Our site uses a secure server and all data is transmitted encrypted. Using your credit card is safe and secure at Monkey Depot. Your order is charged at the time it is placed. If any items are out of stock, we will issue a refund the next business day.

Payment by mail (Check or Money Order):
You can place an order through our site and select to pay by mail with check or money order. Your items are pulled and held until funds arrive.

You have 7 days from the date of placing the order for the funds to reach us. If funds are not received within one week, we cancel the order and return the items to stock.

We have had many problems in the past of people placing orders and us holding the product only for them to never pay or cancel the order. If any customer should not pay or cancel more than 2 pay by mail orders we will no longer hold products for that customer. We value your business. However, when you do not pay it ties up our inventory and keeps other customers from being able to purchase those items. It is also work for us to pull and process an order only to not get paid for it.

Any check that is returned unpaid (i.e. a bounced check) is subject to a $25 fee in addition to the original amount of the check and must be paid in certified funds. If a bounced check and fee remain unpaid, we will report it to the national check verification company that we use.

Pay Pal:
We accept Pay Pal. Please note that Pay Pal payment is expected at time of checkout. We will not hold items for Pay Pal payment at a later date.

Privacy:
Monkey Depot will NEVER sell or give out any of your personal information to any other company or service. The information you send to Monkey Depot is kept on an encrypted secure server. For more in depth information on our privacy policy please CLICK THIS LINK.

Pricing:
Monkey Depot is not responsible for pricing errors on our website. We will always contact a customer prior to shipping to inform them if there has been an error in pricing. Bottom line is this: with thousands of SKU's to manage, there are times where something strange will pop up for 2 cents or even a negative price. We are not a large enough company to just "eat" those mistakes (heck even the big guys won't in all cases). We will let you know the real price before shipping. 

Preorder Products:
Some items on our site are listed as preorders. These are items that we are due to receive from the manufacturer in the near future. By placing a preorder you are agreeing with our preorder conditions listed below:
