Either you have not responded to our request for an address verification for shipping OR we have some other issue to be resolved, such as:
- WE have not gotten to your email reply YET, as we are SWAMPED! Sorry!!!
- OR We haven’t sent you the automated address confirmation email yet (that is when you see a bunch of HOLDs together) They go out roughly 2 weeks before your rack goes into production. – check your spam
- OR you haven’t responded with confirmation of your address or corrected it.
When we have received your response to the confirmation email and resolved all issues, we will change out HOLD to CONFIRMED. ONLY THEN, will it move on to the next step, IN-PROCESS.
If we are building your rack, it will say IN-PROCESS
Please look for our emails and respond promptly so we don’t skip you in the queue. We are getting 100’s of emails a day and the more proactive you can be with us, the better for us all 🙂

Currently, to purchase more aluminum for production, we are charging credit cards the day you place the order.
Much like a Kickstarter, we use these funds to increase our output via inventory purchases and capital investments. Unlike Kickstarter, we allow 100% refunds.
We are using this capital to lock in aluminum pricing. And, as a startup, instead of paying interest on loans (for which we don’t qualify for…yet) and raising prices even more. Everything we buy is financed in some way and we are no exception.
We always suggest using a credit card vs a debit card to protect yourself. Let’s be honest here…you never know what could happen. Heard of Sears, Kmart, Texaco?
You can see our daily progress on shipments HERE to get an idea of how we are doing.
Keep in mind, if at any time you want a 100% refund, do not hesitate to ask for one. We understand your support of this startup and the current issues with the supply chain with all industries.
If you would like to add items to your existing order(s), place a new order and please use the same email address as your first order. Reply back to us from your email order receipts so we can match to the earlier orders, and key your rack the same.
NOTE: This is the only way we know that you are a repeat customer!
Free shipping is NOT included in any shipments, as shipping and fuel charges are extremely volatile right now.
We only ship to USA (Lower 48 states), APOs, Alaska, Hawaii and Canada – priced at current rates.
Shipping cost is available at checkout.
Additionally, we decided we should be more “equitable” in our pricing methodology to charge accordingly to each customer vs. charging the people close to us more to make up for the people farther away.
