Current Shipping and Payment Questions

Updated November 14, 2023
We are currently producing orders created on October 1, 2023. We are currently about 6 weeks lead time for new orders.
Ok, slow down, and read this FAQ as it is updated as of the date above. Now…..
On average, we are shipping approximately 100 orders a week. We keep raising production and break records, but we still have to push harder.
CLICK THE BUTTON BELOW to get a algorithm based estimate from our production software of either your order delivery date or a general estimate on any new orders. Note – this calculation is dynamic and is based on the last 45 days of production historical averages.

UPDATED SEPTEMBER 2023
If your order reads CONFIRMED, it is in the build queue working toward its build date.
If we are actively building your rack, it will say IN-PROCESS and will be shipping within a few days at most.
If your order reads SHIPPED or shows the shipping date, congratulations, it’s on its way to you!
You can keep an eye on the status of your order here: https://script.google.com/a/macros/quikrstuff.com/s/AKfycbxATcLg0bzZ6VTKY9XhObyzzaqLSExsX7mGlFV28JO8_0Sg3BKL50G-UqfQwy8KaoB3/exec
NOTE: Please email us if you have moved since placing your order and/or need to modify the shipping address; otherwise, you will incur additional charges if it is shipped to the wrong address.
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 2023
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, in lieu of paying interest on loans (for which we don’t qualify for…yet) which would mean raising prices even more.
We always suggest using a credit card vs. a debit card to protect yourself against any fraudulent or disputed charges.
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 are happy to assist you.
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!
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 2023
Free shipping is NOT included with any shipments, as shipping and fuel charges are extremely volatile.
We only ship to USA (Lower 48 states), APOs, Alaska, Hawaii and Canada – priced at current rates.
We do not estimate the shipping amount to your area for you. To get an estimate of your shipping cost, put the items you’re interested in ordering into the cart and go through the checkout process until you see the shipping amount. You can then choose to complete your order or not.
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.
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 2023
Yes, you’ll receive tracking info via email once your order is loaded into Santa’s sleigh 🙂
