How are items with shipping damage handled?



If you purchased the optional shipping insurance on your package, then shipping damage claims will be handled through ToolsmartUSA.com directly. ToolsmartUSA.com assumes no liability if the insurance is not purchased. Do not open damaged items as the original packaging must remain intact to show the damage. Please take photos to document damage if possible. We recommend insuring your packages to expedite the damage claim process. After 3 days from the delivery confirmation date we can no longer accept a shipping damage claim.



Do you ship items internationally?


Yes, however international shipping costs vary by country and carrier. Please contact us to get an exact quote. We do our best to be accurate with our quotes. We manually quote all international shipping to you prior to the order being placed. We will not ship until we have your approval for the costs.



Are there taxes or duties on international orders?


Some countries will impose taxes or duty fees on the products we ship. All expenses of this nature are the sole responsibility of the buyer and are collected at delivery. Please contact your local Customs Office to get an estimate of these charges. Placing an order authorizes us to charge your card for any back-billed fees that come to us from the shipping firm. Refusal of delivery of the package does not limit liability of these charges. All expenses related to returns will be added to your invoice. Once an item is shipped, you are responsible for all expenses related to receiving the order. Please be sure the check these possible charges before you order.



Are there potential shipping delays with international orders?


We have no control over Customs once the package is given to the delivery service. Delays can occur in Customs. Some countries are really good about clearing items through Customs, others are terrible. All items that are shipped internationally are shipped from our warehouse in Waynesville, Ohio. Items not in stock cannot be shipped internationally directly from the manufacture; this will increase the number of days for delivery. Units that are being voltage converted automatically incur a 5-7 day delay while the conversion is completed, this is in addition to any manufacturer delays or shipping delays, plan for delays in receiving converted units.



Are there any restrictions with APO/FPO addresses?


APO/FPO (Army Post Office/Fleet Post Office) Military addresses have US Post Office restrictions, plus the occasional country restriction. Generally, we can send anything that isn't hazardous. Some very large boxes cannot be delivered through this service. Items not in stock cannot be shipped internationally directly from the manufacture; this will increase the number of days for delivery. This can delay your shipment by a few days.
