Shipping Charges

[lockrookie]

It is stated in thier shipping that bulbs cost more to ship with insurance and handling. Next time call for exact pricing.

Other than that j&l is my fave online store thier sales are great

Most of they vendors on here are great but bar none J&Ls has been the best

So buying online, s&h fees usually make the great online price not worh while.

Ill order from the states and in the end its cheeper than j&l.

I don't care about anything but my checkout price.

Anytime I have ordered bulbs I have paid exactly what the online invoicing said. OP, are you saying that the charges weren't seen on the online invoicing?

Never had a problem, if the charges were higher I'm sure there was a reason. Everytime I ordered bulbs, there were additional charges, but the website clearly states that.

Hello Everyone,

I thought it relevant to make a posting about shipping charges and how we handle them. Also, I wanted to say that we appreciate all of the kind words that have been shared within this thread. It's feedback like that which keeps us trying hard to continue supplying quality goods at the best prices - with excellent after sale service & support.

Our shipping policies are clearly stated, here, and we do not deviate from them.

Notes:

- We do not charge for boxes & other packing materials used - period, thus they are not rolled in to the shipping price or added after the order is confirmed etc.

- During check out, the customer confirms the shipping charges and they will not be charged more than that. In the rare case we catch a problem, or the combination of courier preference and number of shipment pieces results in a higher rate, the customer will be contacted to confirm before we ship.

- If anyone finds that a shipping charge appears high during check out, we welcome them to give us a call so we can look in to it for them. You can also simply put a special instruction on the order and we will review it and contact you.

As an online retailer we are very sensitive to the issues surrounding shipping charges and we will continue to be so.

Thank you,

Jeff
J&L Aquatics Ltd.

Nothing but top level service and product from JL. I have been very happy everytime I do business with them regardless if its live fish or product. Outstanding company to work with. Thanks guys.

I experienced poor customer service from JL when a new part I received was broken.

I ended up dealing directly with the supplier.
Likely will not do business with them in the future.

But others have reported great experience with them so maybe my dealings were isolated..

Who knows.

Think I will stick to my lfs

I wish J&L was my LFS.

I've dealt with J&L since they opened. I have had nothing less than 100% from them ever.
