Freight and Shipping:
All shipping is F.O.B Santa Maria, California. Shipping methods include UPS Air and Ground Service, UPS Freight, and Conway Freight. Customer is responsible for indicating shipping preference and address prior to shipment. We do not have regular Fed Ex service and therefore discourage this shipping method as it could result in a delay. Every effort will be made to accomodate your shipping preference.
3rd Party or Freight Collect shipments are not available except for special circumstances and only with prior approval. Such shipments will incur a handling fee.
Racetrack shipments: Shipments to racetracks may incur a substantial NHRA track delivery fee. No C.O.D. service available.
C.O.D shipments cannot be made to Racetrack Locations.
Drop Shipment orders must be prepaid in full or a revolving account established with AJPE prior to shipment.
International shipments:
Orders that are shipped to countries outside of the U.S. may be subject to import taxes, customs duties and fees levied by the destination country ("Import Fees"). The recipient of an international shipment may be subject to such Import Fees, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by the recipient; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; contact your local customs office for further information. When customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. International shipments may incur SED charges if applicable.
