| Important Shipping Information |
|
Our standard shipping procedure for all Notebooks in the USA is FedEx 2 day delivery service, (in some areas this is Ground Service in other areas it is Express Air Service).
For orders shipping into Canada, we use FedEx International Economy once the order is prepared for shipment. In most cases this is a 2 to 3 day delivery. All notebook orders processed from The Quantum Alliance that have a final destination in Canada, go to The Quantum Alliance, Inc., in Calgary first and then they are individually dispersed from the Calgary office.
We do not guarantee delivery dates. We cannot control what happens to the shipment once it leaves our facility on FedEx delivery vehicles and/or as a shipment goes through International Customs Departments. There may be delays beyond our control.
Also if you have questions on our order process and production schedules, please contact us for details at (989) 777-5700.
