Should the retail price of a Pre Order item increase once it becomes available, we will allow any Pre-Orders to be cancelled without applying the Re-Stocking charge.  If a mixed order of In-stock and Pre-Order items is placed, the In-stock items will be shipped immediately, and the Pre-Order items will follow when available.  Shipping costs will be allocated to each order as necessary.  While we endeavour to have adequate stock made available to us by suppliers, we are on occasion allocated certain products. We allocate to customers on a first come, first served basis, so please get your Pre-Orders to us as soon as possible.  We hope that all of the above is self explanatory, but please email or phone if you have any questions.
 If electing to pay by cheque, please be aware that we will not begin to pull an order until the cheque arrives with us.  There is always a possiblity that an item might go out of stock before your cheque arrives, so please send you cheque promptly.
