International Credit Cards/Freight Forwarding

At AntiqueHardwareSupply.com, international credit cards are accepted, provided that the shipping destination matches the country associated with the credit card. AntiqueHardwareSupply.com does not ship to any Freight Forwarding facility for the purpose of exporting goods and circumventing International shipping costs or duty nor will we accept and substitute International Shipping Addresses once the order is placed using a domestic address.

To address the prevalence of fraud in international shipping, AntiqueHardwareSupply.com fulfills orders only when the destination corresponds to the country linked with the credit card and does not trigger any fraud alerts in our credit card system. If our system identifies your order as potentially fraudulent, AntiqueHardwareSupply.com retains the right to cancel the order at any point. Customers using an international credit card may ship domestically but the payment must be resubmitted by money order or wire transfer. Otherwise these orders are refunded and subject to a thirty-five percent restocking fee to protect the company from fraudulent orders.

Insufficient Funds/Disputed Payments/Held Payments

AntiqueHardwareSupply.com will assess a $75.00 fee to any account whose payment is NSF (i.e. bounced check), returned, held or otherwise put into dispute, charge reversal or any credit card or issuing bank that demands a written response. Accounts are billed for the interest on that amount compounded daily. The interest rate shall be the maximum allowable by law. This policy and fee applies to bounced payments, returned payments, insufficient funds, holds in escrow by credit card or other payment services, bankruptcy filings or any other form of payment reversal, removal or hold placed after the order has been placed or dispute where a written response is required in order to keep funds for shipped goods. These cases are referred to a collections agency reporting to all major credit reporting agencies including, but not limited to, Experian, Equifax and Trans Union. 

Order Charges, Changes & Cancellation

Order Charges, Changes or Cancellation Policy Many of our products are custom assembled and finished to order - therefore all credit cards are charged at the time of the sale. Providing items have not yet shipped, AntiqueHardwareSupply.com will make every effort to accommodate changes to an order - but these changes cannot be guaranteed. Because many items are finished by hand and made to order - cancellations or changes may incur restocking fees. Many manufacturers do incur restocking fees (typically 18%) and they will not waive them in the event of an order cancellation.

In the event that a customer provides an inaccurate shipping address, resulting in the item being returned to Antique Hardware Supply and marked as "undeliverable," the customer assumes responsibility for both the shipping charges and an additional $15 fee for the reshipment of the order. Opting not to proceed with the order's reshipment will be regarded as a return, subject to applicable restocking fees.

Damaged, Incorrect and Defective Items Policy

It is the responsibility of the customer to carefully inspect merchandise and report damage or errors within 7 days of receipt. AntiqueHardwareSupply.com accepts damaged or defective merchandise for exchange of same merchandise if reported within 7 days of your receipt of order. Return shipping of damaged or defective merchandise to AntiqueHardwareSupply.com is solely the responsibility of the customer. Damaged merchandise is handled through AntiqueHardwareSupply.com's Customer Service. Failure to follow instructions regarding the claim can nullify any reimbursement of fees or charges, and delay any exchange of merchandise by AntiqueHardwareSupply.com.
