For items stocked by BPD, your credit card will be billed at the time of shipment. For items shipped direct from the manufacturer, your credit card will be billed once the order is completed in our system. If an item is backordered, you won’t be charged until the order ships.
Please note, an authorization will appear on your credit card after order submission. An authorization is a communication from your bank to our payment system letting us know your card is valid and the required funds are available. These authorizations may show as “pending” on your credit card until the funds are captured. If an item from your order is on backorder, this “pending” message could remain intact until your order ships. Credit and debit card providers differ in how long they will hold an authorization for a pending transaction.
Inventory & Shipping
-
Any products with the "In Stock" flag are in stock and available to order. These items will usually be sent out on the same day if ordered before 3 pm CST.
Please note, if you have a default warehouse set up in our system, we will make every effort to ship out your products from there for expediency. If the requested quantity is not available in your default warehouse, the remaining inventory will be sourced from one of our distribution centers.
If we receive an order and then discover that the item is out of stock, we'll contact you to confirm how you'd like to proceed.
-
When a product is on backorder status, the estimated restock date is provided on the product detail page, in your order confirmation e-mail, and under your order history. Your item will ship as soon as it becomes available, and you will not be charged until the item ships. The full amount charged at checkout will be authorized on your card and will be in the state of “pending” until the order ships.
-
We will send the in-stock items first while we wait for the for the backordered items to arrive. The full shipping charge will be applied to the in-stock portion of the order. Thus, the backordered item will ship at no additional charge.
