All Sales Are Final
We do not allow returns or cancellations of orders.
This applies to both in-stock and pre-ordered items. However, if a pre-ordered
item is delayed more than 60 days past our published release date, you may remove that
item from your order with no penalty.
Discounts
Orders over $1000 receive a 4% discount. Shipping costs do not count towards $1000.
Discounts do not apply to case prices or to special price quotes. If you order a case and your order exceeds $1000, you will receive the lower of either the case price or our regular box price minus the discount.
Payment
Credit Cards: We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, JCB, and American Express with no surcharge.
PayPal: Please send payments to sales@potomacdist.com
Bank Wire: Your order will be shipped once receipt of wire has been confirmed by our bank. Minimum order for this payment method is $1000.00.
Send-in Payment: If you pay by money order or cashiers check, we'll ship your order as soon as we receive payment. If you pay by personal check or business check, we must wait 14 days for the check to clear before we ship. Please mail payments to Potomac Distribution, 43760 Trade Center Place #145, Dulles, VA 20166 USA.
Pre-Order Deposits
We require a 10% deposit when you buy pre-order products. Please note that this is only a deposit and not an extra charge.
When we collect a 10% deposit, you will only be charged for the remaining 90% when your order ships.
In the event that the manufacturer cancels the pre-ordered product, we will refund all deposit payments.
Ship Dates When Pre-Order Items Are On The Same Invoice
If there are in-stock items and pre-order items on the same invoice, the entire invoice
will be shipped once all of the pre-order products arrive.
To avoid this situation, please place separate orders for each shipment that you want.
If you have already ordered and would
like us to split your order into separate shipments, please email us.
Keep in mind that if you are an international customer or if you are in the US but have requested shipping by overnight, 2-day, 3-day, or
Priority Mail service, your total shipping costs will increase simply because it is always cheaper to
send one large shipment than two small ones.

Please do not ask us to undervalue your package for customs purposes.
