FAQ
Q: I can't find the product I am looking for
A: The easiest way to find an item on our website is by using our "SEARCH" box. The Search box is located on the upper right side of the homepage on desktop computers and can be found on the dropdown menu on the upper left side on mobile devices. Our system search uses "keywords" to help you find your product. Try to enter one or two "keywords" of the item you are looking for, not the whole title of the item, or if you know the part number, enter JUST the number, not the prefix. Example: Enter 2820X, not TRA2820X
If you are still unable to find what you are searching for, send us a message via email or facebook or give us a call at 607-296-4600. The item you are searching for may just not be uploaded to our website yet, we can upload it in about 15 minutes for you so that you can purchase it.
Q: Do you have an coupon/discount codes?
A: Manufacturers dictate what retailers are allowed to sell with an advertised discount. For any manufacturers that allow discount codes on their products, the code will be listed right on the page of that product for you to enter at checkout.
Q: I am having problems completing checkout/receiving an error message that my order will not go through or I am unsure if my order went through
A: A common problem at checkout is not entering the correct zip code for the billing address of your credit/debit card. This is a security feature to mitigate fraud. You MUST enter the billing address and zip code that the card you are attempting to use has on file for you. If you are unsure, please contact your bank or credit card company. Do not attempt to checkout more than 4 times without making a correction or the systems security feature will temporarily lock you out. You may try again in 15 minutes when the lock is released. Please contact us at 607-296-4600 if you continue to have an issue with checkout or are experiencing any other issues with checkout.
