Customer Service FAQ's

Billing
The charge on your credit card will appear as SHOP CAROLINA INC. Credit cards are authorized but not charged until an order has shipped. We may obtain a new authorization within 7 days of shipping. If a check is used for payment, your order will be processed once your check clears our bank.

Order Status
Reply to the order confirmation email you received from Service@Shop-Carolina.com by using the Reply function in your email program and ask for the status of your order.  The order confirmation email contains all the information we need to research the current status of your order.

Delays
Sometimes our web deals briefly overwhelm our suppliers.  We always try to let you know via email of any delays or backorders.

Cancellations
Customers may cancel any standard order at any time before it ships.  Special and custom orders can be cancelled within 24 hours at no charge.  Partial credit will be due under our Money Back Guarantee if you refuse delivery of an order after it ships.

Returns
Items can be returned for any reason without question in accordance with our Money Back Guarantee.

Exchanges
Exchanges can be made under our Return Policy and Procedure. You can order the new item you wish through our website and we will credit your old item once it has been returned.  Or, you can return your old item for credit first and then order your new item. A restocking fee of 20% will be withheld on all returns accepted for exchange.

Damages, Defects and Incorrect Items
Inspect all deliveries immediately upon receipt. If you note damages, contact us within 24 hours and we will file proper claims. UPS, FedEx and Common Carriers may need to inspect damaged items and we ask that you make them available for inspection and pick-up. We may also need pictures of damaged items.

If you note damages and the delivery was by Common Carrier, it is very important note the damage, even slight, on the driver's receipt at the time of delivery and to contact us within 24 hours.  If the damages appear to be significant, note the damage on the driver’s receipt, refuse the delivery and contact us immediately with the details including the name of the freight company.  For damages that were hidden and not noted at the time of Common Carrier delivery, you still must contact us within 24 hours for us to be able to help you.

If you receive a damaged,  defective or incorrect item, we will work to correct your order.  We may be able to provide necessary pieces and parts to correct an order or we may arrange for items to be picked up by the shipper, provide you with instructions for the pickup and provide delivery of proper items at no additional cost to you.

If you receive a damaged, defective or incorrect item and you decide you do not want us to correct your order and you no longer wish to keep your order, you may return the item under our Return Policy and Procedure.  Once inspection determines that the item was damaged, defective or incorrect - restocking fees will not be withheld from your credit.
