Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability as to Shipping Errors

ANSGEAR.COM will make mistakes. Although we work very hard to prevent errors when filling orders, the fact that we employ human beings to pick, pack and ship orders makes errors unavoidable. If we do ship the wrong product to you or leave out a certain product from a package, our procedure and policy for resolving the problem is the following: ANSGEAR.COM will verify that an item was left out of a package by repacking the original order and comparing what the weight should have been to the actual weight shipped. If we clearly see that an item has been left out of the package, we will ship the item to you at no charge using the most efficient shipping method available. We would gladly upgrade your service to ensure that you receive the item by a specific date if you are willing to pay the difference in shipping costs between the most efficient shipping method and your new requested shipping method.

Warranty Disclaimer

This site and the materials and products on this site are provided “as is.” Many of the products on the site come with a manufacturer warranty. Warranties are not handled through ANSGEAR.COM. If you are concerned with the warranty of a particular item, contact the manufacturer prior to purchasing the product. To the fullest extent permissible pursuant to applicable law, ANSGEAR.COM disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. ANSGEAR.COM does not represent or warrant that the functions contained in the site will be uninterrupted or error-free, that the defects will be corrected, or that this site or the server that makes the site available are free of viruses or other harmful components.

Limitation of Liability

ANSGEAR.COM expressly disclaims all warranties, express or implied, of any kind with respect to the sites or their use, including but not limited to merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. WWW.ANSGEAR.COM shall not be liable for any special or consequential damages that result from the use of or the inability to use, the materials on this site or the performance of the products, even if WWW.ANSGEAR.COM has been advised of the possibility of such damages. You agree that this limitation of liability is comprehensive and applies to all damages of any kind, including without limitation direct, indirect, compensatory, special, incidental, punitive and consequential damages. Applicable law may not allow the limitation of exclusion of liability or incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

Typographical Errors

In the event a product is listed with an incorrect price or with incorrect information due to typographical error or error in pricing or product information received from our suppliers, ANSGEAR.COM shall have the right to refuse or cancel any such orders whether or not the order has been confirmed and your credit card charged. If your credit card has already been charged for the purchase and your order is cancelled, ANSGEAR.COM shall issue a credit to your credit card account in the amount of the incorrect price.

Shipping

ANSGEAR.COM uses the two (2) most reliable sources for shipping, FedEX and USPS and live shipping rates can be found upon checkout when products are added to the shopping cart. Most orders are shipped out within 24 - 48 hours upon placing an order. Under special circumstances, this time line may be increased due to special orders or inventory inconsistencies. Shipping insurance is offered for all FedEX and USPS shipments and MUST be purchased at the time of checkout. The insurance is calculated in direct correlation of dollar amount of said order. Any damage or loss to packages that occur in route to customer destinations must be dealt with directly through the carrier. The carrier is the company which assumed responsibility upon pick up of a package from ANSGEAR.COM facilities. ANSGEAR.COM will help in assistance of resolution but is in no means held responsible.  You must purchase shipping insurance for our customer support to file a claim with the shipping company. All transit times are based off carriers estimated delivery schedules. In cases such as extreme weather, holidays, and other unforeseen reasons, normal transit times may be affected. In the unfortunate case of these cirucmstances, the carrier nor ANSGEAR.COM can be held responsible and thus can not offer any type of compensation.
