How much is shipping? How are shipping costs calculated?
We use Fed Ex to ship our orders. Your shipping costs will be displayed in the cart when you place your order. Shipping costs are determined based on weight and shipping location and we only charge you the actual shipping costs charged by the carrier. If you would like to ship using your own Fed Ex or UPS account we can do that as well.
What payment methods can I use?
We accept American Express, Visa, MasterCard and Discover. Approved accounts can also make payments via PayPal. We do not maintain payment information in your account. You will need to enter it each time you place an order.
How does the Blind Drop Ship Program work?
When the item “Blind Drop Ship” is added to your order and you select FedEx as your method of shipment, we will do the following:
- No packing slip is placed in the box
- We will use the “Bill To” name and address as the return address on the shipping label
- We will use the “Ship To” name and address as the shipping address on the shipping label
When the item "Blind Drop Ship" is added to your order and you select USPS as your method of shipment, we will do the following:
- No packing slip is placed in the box
- We will use the "Shipping Department" at Wholesale Chess as the return address on the shipping label (due to recent updated requirements from the USPS, we are unable to use your billing address as the return address on the shipping label at this time)
- We will use the "Ship To" name and address as the shipping address on the shipping label
There is a $5 fee for blind drop ship orders. Our minimum order size is waived for all blind drop ship orders.
When will my order be processed?
Most orders placed before 2:00 pm Mountain Time Monday through Friday will ship the same day. If we cannot process your order within two business days (not including the day the order is placed) we will contact you.
How are returns handled?
