BACKORDERS: Every effort is made to ship product as quickly as possible, but occasionally items are backordered. As soon as the items become available, they are shipped without notice. Backorders of less than $50.00 and open for more than 6 months duration will be canceled. If you have any instructions regarding backorders, please indicate when the order is placed.

DAMAGES/SHORTAGES: Upon receipt of your shipment, please count the number of pieces (skids, crates, and cartons) against the quantity listed on the delivery receipt. The shrink wrap should be intact, but if not, this may be a sign of shortage in your shipment. If a shipment arrives intact with no visible damage, the shipment should be received. The carrier will NOT allow inspection of a shipment received with no visible damage. If a shipment arrives with any obvious damage, you are entitled to refuse the damaged shipment. In order to facilitate claims, please note on the DR (delivery receipt) the type of damage, any shortage, or whether the shrink wrap was not intact. Please report all concealed damages within 48 hours of signing the DR to avoid denial of claim. Please submit a complete claim form to customerservice@globalviews. com with pdf images of the damaged item and the shipping box. If you are not refusing the shipment, please keep the damaged item with all original packaging until the claim is resolved which can take up to 30 days. If delivery receipt is not signed with details of any shortage or damage, Global Views reserves the right to refuse liability or responsibility for damage. Please make sure your receiving facility follows the above guidelines in order to avoid additional fees and/or delays in claim settlement. We will not be able to process a claim if it is not reported to Global Views before the receiving facility delivers to the client.
