PRICES: Quoted prices on merchandise are valid for 7 days unless otherwise specified. Freight quotes are based on the warehouse they will ship from. We will always ship from the warehouse nearest to the customer's shipping address. If product availability changes before we receive payment for an order, the customer will be notified as to a delay in shipment until that warehouse has product availability again. If the product is available in another warehouse, the customer will be notified of a change in the freight cost. The customer may then choose immediate delivery and pay the increased freight cost. The customer may also choose to delay delivery until the closest warehouse is able to ship the product. Credit card payment and bank wire transfers guarantee the freight quote will not change if the order is placed the same day the quote is given. ORDERS: Must be accompanied with payment in full. Stove orders that have a lead time of 4 or more weeks require a non-refundable $500 or higher deposit. Most cookstoves are built to order and therefore require a deposit. PAYMENT OPTIONS: Only U.S. Dollars are accepted. Visa, Master Card, Discover and American Express are accepted. (With credit card payment the product will be shipped the following day, or as soon as it is available for shipment.) Bank wire transfers are accepted and the product can be shipped the following day funds are received, or as soon as the order is available for shipment after full payment is received. SHIPPING of STOVES, FIREPLACES, FURNACES: Please call or email for a freight quote. Some products include free shipping as specified below. Free Shipping includes delivery on a full sized semi (lowest priced carrier, see notes below.) We can arrange shipments to residential addresses if it can be accessed by a freight truck. Truck sizes range from a 28' straight truck to a 53' tractor trailer (a semi). We will always request the smallest truck available. If you specify that only a small truck can access your street or driveway, we will do our best to make this arrangement. They are not available in all areas. If a small truck is available through a different carrier, there could be an additional charge for for this service. If there is an additional charge, you will be notified and given various options for delivery. Shipments can also be picked up at a freight dock. The docks are typically located in large cities. You can also meet a truck to take delivery if you have a pick up truck or a trailer capable of loading your shipment onto. If residential delivery is specified, the truck will have a lift gate to unload the merchandise off the truck. Often times, the driver will use a dolly or a pallet jack to bring the merchandise up your drive way. If the drive way is not paved, the driver may not be able to wheel the merchandise and will remove it from his truck and it will be the purchaser's responsibility to move it further. Freight trucks are hesitant to enter a customer's driveway as they do not want to be responsible for the weight of the truck damaging concrete or asphalt. In this case, they will unload at the curb and it is the responsibility of the purchaser (also called consignee on a delivery) to move the merchandise further. The customer (consignee) is responsible to take delivery within 48 hours of the product arriving at your local terminal. If customer is not available, storage fees will be accrued and billed to the customer if delivery cannot be accepted in a reasonable time. If the trucking company attempts delivery and no one is there to receive the shipment, a redelivery charge will be billed to the customer before the shipment can be redelivered. INSPECTION OF MERCHANDISE: When you receive an item that is shipped to you, be sure to open the box or crate and inspect the merchandise thoroughly before accepting and signing for the delivery. If you discover upon inspection that the merchandise is damaged, make a notation on the bill of lading describing the damage. If the product is severely damaged and not repairable, simply refuse to accept the delivery and we will replace that item at no additional cost to you once it has been returned to us from the freight company. If you are unsure whether to accept the shipment, contact Obadiah's while the delivery company is still present. Obadiah's cannot be held responsible for any costs incurred to replace or repair damaged merchandise that has been accepted and signed for by the purchaser. DEFECTIVE MERCHANDISE: Defective merchandise is a product which you receive that was not damaged during shipment, but has a flaw or some feature that does not work properly. In the event that you discover a defect, you must contact Obadiah's to disclose the problem. Obadiah's will then determine if the problem can be corrected without the product being shipped back. If the defect cannot be corrected on site, a return goods authorization number will be issued to the customer and the item must be returned within 10 days. Merchandise will not be accepted by Obadiah's without a return goods authorization number. Obadiah's will arrange prepaid freight or accept a product freight collect if a return authorization number has been issued. At our option, Obadiah's will either service the product to repair it, replace the product with a new product of the same model, or issue a credit to the customer for another purchase. It is the customer's responsibility to properly re-package the item for return shipping so that it does not incur damage in transit. Re-packaging charges are not covered under warranty or under the defective merchandise policy. CANCELLATION FEE: A cancellation fee of 4% will retained on any order canceled after a credit card has been processed. An order cannot be cancelled once it has been shipped. (See return policy) Due to long lead times on many stoves, we cannot guarantee delivery on any certain date. Delivery dates are subject to change on some products due to shortages of materials. Any deposit collected on an order will be retained if cancelled. RETURN POLICY: Obadiah's offers a 30 day return policy on most items (electronics and parts that were installed are excluded). It is the consumer's responsibility to make sure that your purchase is well suited for your situation.

RESTOCKING FEE: There is a 20% restocking fee on all returned merchandise, plus shipping charges. Returns must be authorized in advance by Obadiah's and the customer must ship the goods prepaid at their expense, according to the above return policy. The original cost to ship the product to the customer will be deducted from the refund, whether or not the customer was originally billed for shipping or got free shipping.
