Terms of Use

UPDATED: 9 February 2018

SHIPPING POLICY

SwingSurgeon.com uses United States Postal Service, to get our products to you. Please contact us if you have any questions about our shipping policy.

If you need a specific shipping method or guaranteed delivery date we ask that you choose from one of our USPS expedited services such as Priority mail

All shipping guarantees are made by the carriers themselves. SwingSurgeon.com does not guarantee any shipping dates. If you select a guaranteed shipping method and your package does not arrive when guaranteed, please contact us and we will work with the carrier to determine if you are eligible for a shipping refund. Carrier guarantees do not apply in inclement weather, acts of nature, etc. Please visit the carrier's website (i.e., USPS.com) for complete details.

SHIPPING CHARGES

You will be charged the exact amount shown in your shopping cart. For some orders (including orders that exceed a certain weight) you may need to place your order via phone in order for us to custom quote your shipping charges. On most orders, we subsidize some of the shipping costs to keep your delivered price as low as possible. With some shipping methods such as USPS, your shipping cost may include a small fee for self-insurance, packing materials and handling.

RECURRING CHARGES

If you choose a monthly subscription, you agree that your credit card will automatically be charged by Swingsurgeon.com (through its payment card processing service provider) each month in your subscription. If you wish to terminate your subscription and avoid a charge for a subsequent month, you must do so at least seven (7) days before the monthly renewal date of your subscription. (The monthly renewal date is the same day of the month that you first subscribed). SwingSurgeon.com will not send you a monthly statement. You may cancel your monthly subscription by contacting Swing Surgeon Customer Care (via phone: 1.888.847.9464 or email: support@swingsurgeon.com).

Undeliverable Packages or Unclaimed Packages returned to us will be assessed a return shipping fee equal to the original shipping amount in addition to the original shipping charges to cover the fees assessed to SwingSurgeon.com by UPS or USPS for returning the package to us. If the customer requests the package to be re-shipped to them the original shipping charges must be paid again.
