Your Order
Sometimes American Agriculture has to place orders on the products
it sells months in advance to keep the products it advertises in
stock. However, we are at the mercy of manufactures and distributors
and cannot guarantee that all items will be available at the time
of your order. If the product is not in stock we will ask you if
you wish to backorder the product until becomes available.
Order Confirmations
All e-mail orders are received by our shipping department. Order
Confirmations are generated automatically by the website. You will
receive an order confirmation by e-mail if you order by e-mail.
If you do not receive an e-mail confirmation it is most likely because
you have either entered your e-mail address incorrectly or your
e-mail is not working. Remember that if you enter your e-mail incorrectly
we cannot contact you by e-mail. We must rely on your phone number.
Refunds & Exchanges
Shopping is easy with American Agriculture. All refunds and exchanges
will be gladly accepted when merchandise is returned in its original
unused condition with the original payment receipt. A credit for
the amount of the product will be issued on the credit card used
on the payment receipt. A credit confirmation will be sent to you
by mail. There will be NO credit for the shipping and handling amount
if any. If the original payment receipt is not included with your
refund or exchange merchandise, a store credit will be issued when
the merchandise is returned in its original unused condition.

Shipping Options and Charges
How To Determine Shipping Charges
Our way of calculating shipping charges are different from most
other companies. It is a more honest way to determine shipping.
Shipping costs are not completely related to product cost. Most
of the items we have listed are shipped for free anywhere in the
contiguous United States. Alaska and Hawaii are not land mass connected
to the other states so there is a charge for shipping items even
if they are listed as "FREE SHIPPING". Also, we might
charge shipping for products that are very heavy or very large.
Our website will calculate shipping charges without you placing
an order. Simply place the item in the shopping cart by clicking
on the "BUY" button. This will take you to the Shopping
Cart where you will see the product you selected. Now click on the
"CHECKOUT" button. It will take you to a form to fill
out with your shipping information. We need this information to
get quoted from UPS (United Parcel Service). If you have a coupon
code, enter it here. After filling out the form, click on the button
that says "CHECKOUT". On this page you will find your
shipping options and be able to select your shipping method and/or
learn about any cost to you. You can proceed or go back to shopping
without placing an order.
GROUND ORDERS
We will begin processing your GROUND shipping orders on the first
business day it arrives. Business days start before 2:15 pm Pacific
Time. After 2:15 pm Pacific Time all orders are considered to be
for the next business day processing. It takes 2 business days for
processing; do not count Saturday and Sunday. We will ship your
order on the 3rd business day providing product is in stock. Example:
If your order is placed on Friday it will not ship until Tuesday
of the following week. If there is any delay, we will contact you
immediately, either by email or by phone. If you have any questions
regarding the status of your order, please call us at 1 (800) 433-6805.
We ship UPS Standard Ground within the 48 contiguous United States
unless another shipping method is requested with your order. C.O.D.
ordering can only be done by calling 1 (800) 433-6805 and talking
to a sales associate. Remember, UPS does not move product on Saturday
or Sunday.
AIR ORDERS
We will process and ship your NEXT DAY, SECOND DAY or THREE DAY
SELECT order the same day of your order if it is received before
2:15 PM Pacific Time Monday through Friday. Next Day Air orders
made on Friday will require an additional UPS charge for delivery
on Saturday. UPS does not deliver on Sundays. UPS does not count
Saturday and Sunday as workdays. Example: A Second Day Air order
made on Friday will be delivered on Tuesday of the next week. A
Three Day Select Air order made on Friday will be delivered on Wednesday
of the next week. In some instances, very large orders may be held
back due to the time it takes to package them especially if the
order is made too close to the 2:15 PM cut off time. This determination
will be made while you are on the phone making the order. Products
not in stock will prompt us to ask for decisions. If there is any
delay we will contact you immediately, either by email or by phone.
If you have any questions regarding the status of your order, please
call us at 1 (800) 433-6805.Please make Next Day, Second Day and
Three Day Select orders as early in the day after 9:35 AM Monday
through Friday as you can.
