Shipping Policy
GiveAshare.com^® utilizes UPS and the USPS for shipping. Items shipped via UPS cannot be shipped to P.O. Boxes.  Delivery times are paced by the stock registration process and shipments are normally made within 3-7 weeks. If you need something sooner, consider 2 Part Delivery, a gift notification and/or selecting a fast mode of shipment in the checkout process. 

We generally use UPS for domestic shipping.  USPS is generally more economical for international orders but tracking and insurance can be limited. Our shopping cart allows you to choose the mode of shipment and uses both UPS and USPS live rate lookup to calculate the shipping cost. You will receive an email notification with a tracking number upon shipment on UPS orders.  If you choose a shipping method that does NOT provide tracking or insurance, you assume the risk of loss or damage.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS

We reserve the right to not process orders from countries with high incidents of credit card fraud. Some countries may charge additional taxes or custom duties/fees upon delivery which are not included in the price. During checkout, you, the customer are given a variety of shipping method options to select from to suit your needs for timing, cost, and risk. If you choose a shipping method that does NOT provide tracking or insurance, you assume the risk of loss or damage.

• United Parcel Service (UPS):  All United Parcel Service shipping methods provide insurance & door to door tracking

• US Postal Service (USPS): Express Mail International - insurance is provided, and tracking is limited once the package leaves the United States.

• US Postal Service (USPS): Priority Mail International - limited insurance is provided, and tracking is limited once the package leaves the United States.

• US Postal Service (USPS): All other USPS options - do NOT provide tracking or insurance.

Return Policy
At GiveAshare.com^® we are very interested in making sure that our customers are satisfied. We pledge to provide you with innovative products with exceptional quality and value and with customer service that exceeds your needs. Part of what makes this an exciting product is that it is REAL stock that must be formally registered with a transfer agent and the brass plaque is PERSONALIZED with your words. While this adds to the uniqueness of the product it also imposes some of the responsibility for a quality product on you, the purchaser.
Help us ensure that you get what you want by doing the following:

• Carefully enter your order with correct names, spelling, & punctuation
• Thoroughly review your order confirmation and correct as necessary. If you find something later contact us (see below).
• Once you receive shipment, inspect your product and communicate any issues immediately but no later than 1 week from receipt.

Note that refund and cancellation terms apply to the purchaser and not the recipient of a gift.

Your credit card is charged when you place your order. When you enter your order you have three opportunities to verify your entries 1) an on-line confirmation; 2) an email confirmation and 3) an online order status. You may make corrections to your order or cancel for a full refund by contacting us within 3 business days for NORMAL delivery orders.  For 2 Part Delivery orders placed AFTER 10 AM PST, you must contact us prior to 10  AM on the NEXT business day, for orders placed BEFORE 10 AM PST, you must contact us prior to 3 PM on the SAME business day. This is considered the confirmation period.

After the confirmation period, we make a commitment to the stock registration and plaque engraving process so cancellations from this point up until shipment are limited to the frame price.
