TERMS OF USE
Sales Tax Policy
U.S. Tax: Orders shipping to an address in a state which requires us to collect sales tax will have local sales tax assessed. In certain cases, we may provide an estimated sales tax amount until your exact location is finalized prior to order completion.
International Tax: All International orders may subject to import fees, duty, customs, VAT charges or additional taxes when the package arrives in the country of their shipping destination. Scuba.com is not responsible nor can we offer any specific advice on fees or additional taxes that you may be charged when your merchandise arrives.
We cannot make refunds to customers who do not receive shipments because they have declined to pay these costs.
We recommend that you contact the appropriate government agency for your country/locale before placing your order and ask for information about these potential charges, so you know in advance what your total charges will be.
If an international shipment is refused and/or returned, any taxes, duties, custom fees, brokerage fees or shipping charges incurred from this return, will be the responsibility of the customer.
Warranty Policy
Like your car, scuba gear is backed by manufacturer’s warranties. If you buy from an authorized dealer, you will be notified in the event of a safety recall. The warranty is much more important with scuba gear, since you don’t suck air from your steering wheel while 80 feet underwater. Every year the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) finds several scuba products that require recall. That is why you should purchase your gear from an authorized dealer.
Payment Methods
We accept VISA, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. All orders placed via this website are secure. This means that your credit card number and all other sensitive information will be protected by encryption.
We also accept checks or money orders. There will be a $25.00 service charge on returned checks. Sorry, we cannot accept C.O.D. orders from first-time customers.
Overseas customers please note: The most convenient method of payment for foreign orders is by credit card, since the exchange rate is automatically calculated at the best available rate of exchange.
Pricing and Availability Policy
Scuba.com is intended to be a guide only. Some item illustrations are for display purposes only, may not be exact, and are not necessarily included in the purchase price. Scuba.com is not responsible for typographical or pictorial errors, and specifications may change without notice.
All items offered for sale are subject to availability. Many items on our Web site or catalog site come from various sources. Scuba.com is therefore bound to fluctuating currency exchange rates, making it necessary to occasionally increase prices. In addition, some domestic and overseas products may be discontinued without our prior knowledge. Should this apply to your order, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation.
We make every effort to provide you with an error-free Web site. However, in the event there is a misprint, we reserve the right to correct copy or pricing to reflect the actual current status.
Order confirmations do not guarantee our acceptance of your order, nor does it constitute confirmation of an offer to sell. Scuba.com reserves the right to decline and cancel an order, or supply less than quantity ordered at any time.
