Combining Multiple Orders

Our daily order cutoff is Monday-Friday between 10:00 and 11:00 am Central time. Any order we receive after the cutoff cannotbe combined with any earlier order received before the cutoff.
If you place multiple orders and they\'re all submitted on the same side of our daily order cutoff, we willautomatically combine those orders into a single shipment and refund you the extra shipping charge imposed during the checkout process. There\'s no need to request combined shipping or a modified invoice, it will happen automatically.
We process and ship orders quickly, and socannot combine an order received after the daily order cutoff with an earlier order that has already been pulled and packed.
If you want to be sure your items ship together for a single shipping charge, we recommend that you submit a singleorder for everything you want to buy, rather than ordering them separately.

Ordering more than 40 items

limits the number of items you can purchase in a single checkout to 40 items. We have no control overthat limit. If you want to order more than 40 items, then place an order for the first 40 items and then go through checkout again for the remaining items you want to order. The checkout will charge you shippingseparately for the second order, but as long as the second order is received before our next daily order cutoff between10:00-11:00 am Central time, we will automatically combine your orders into a single shipment and refundyou the extra shipping that the checkout system charged you.
