Faxed Purchase Order Guidelines

We prefer that our customers place orders on our website or call us at 1-800-572-2194 to order. When orders are placed this way, we are comfortable that our customers know what to expect in regards to lead-times, shipping charges and other pertinent information. We also understand that certain institutions only use purchase orders. It's never a problem for us to reference your PO number on our orders. You may enter that number in the notes field on our website, or give it to the Customer Service Specialist at our 800 number when placing your order.

If you are unable to order online or by phone, you may consider faxing your order to us. There are strict guidelines that if not followed will result in our inability to process your PO without delay and further correspondence.

  • You must not state Net 30 terms on your PO unless you have been pre-approved by us for those terms. If you would like to apply for Net 30 credit terms, you may call the 800-number and request a credit application. Our Service Representative will handle your request.
  • No PO's with a "Shipping Method" of FOB destination or Collect will be accepted. The Ship Method on your order must state "Prepay and Bill". You are responsible for shipping charges. If you would like to know your ship cost ahead of time you will need to place your order on the web or by phone at our 800-number. Sorry, we do not provide copies of Bill of Lading or shipping invoices.
  • We cannot process orders with missing information. The following is required:
    Company Name, Contact First and Last Name, Billing Address, Shipping Address (no PO Box or APO's accepted for "Ship To" addresses), Valid phone and fax numbers, Our product SKU numbers, Qty., current price from our website, and any pre-quoted shipping charge if applicable.
  • We cannot be held responsible for faxed orders not received on our end.
  • We do not guarantee or confirm any predetermined ship dates on faxed orders. If your order is time sensitive, we highly recommend that you phone in your order at our 800-number instead of faxing.
  • If you have placed an order on our website or phoned in your order at our 800-number, please do not send a faxed confirmation! We cannot be responsible for the duplication of orders.
  • We do not participate in eVa, ASI or other discount programs.
