Order Policy

Orders shipping to customers in regions covered by one of our international distributors will be fulfilled by that distributor. Use the “Request Invoice” option from the checkout page and your local distributor will contact you to complete the transaction.

 

Carbide Audio will directly ship to customers in all other regions.

Shipping Policy

North American orders and international orders over $800 USD ship for free.

 

Handling time for new orders is typically 3 to 5 business days. You will receive an email containing tracking information shortly before your package ships.

 

US Domestic packages ship via UPS Ground which has a 3-5 day transit time.

 

International packages ship via UPS Worldwide Expedited or UPS Standard which has a 3-7 day transit time. Please note that customs clearance can add additional transit time in some situations. It is the responsibility of the buyer to be available for delivery of the shipment. UPS will make several delivery attempts after which the item will be returned to us. In this case it will be considered a return and the return shipment cost will be deducted from the refunded amount.

Tax and Import Duties Policy

US Domestic orders shipping to a Texas address are assessed Sales Tax.

 

International orders are assessed a tax based on the import duties and taxes (VAT for example) for that country. Import duties and taxes are collected up front at the time of checkout. We ship internationally as DDP (Delivery Duty Paid) to simplify customs clearance and to ensure that you are not responsible for any additional fees upon delivery. We cannot declare a lower value on customs declarations.

Currency Policy

We accept most major currencies. Prices are shown in the local currency based on your geographic location or the shipping location specified on the checkout page. If you do not see prices in your expected currency, please contact us and we can provide you with an invoice in the requested currency.

Return Policy

Carbide Base footers purchased directly from the Carbide Audio website are eligible to be returned. If you are not satisfied for any reason, you may return your item within 30 days from the order ship date.

 

Please note that we cannot refund the original shipping costs where applicable. We also cannot refund taxes paid on international orders since we are billed these costs by UPS. Please insure your shipment and provide us with a tracking number along with your order number so that we can properly issue your refund.

Items returned after 30 days, or items that have been damaged, due to misuse or abuse, or to an act of nature, may not be entitled to a full refund. If that happens, we may refuse to accept the product for return, or we may assess a restocking fee that will be deducted from your refund.
