How Shipping Works When Ordering from Tecnocraft Composites
Updated
Shipping is not charged at checkout. When you place an order on tecnocraftcomposites.com, the site states that you will not be billed for shipping at the time of purchase. After your order is received, a sales representative contacts you with the shipping charges. Orders typically ship out 3–5 business days from the original purchase date. Customers in Canada, Alaska, and Hawaii should expect additional shipping charges.
What Happens at Checkout
The cart and product pages show "Shipping calculated at checkout," but the published policy on the product listings goes further: shipping is quoted after the order, not during it. In practice this means:
- You complete the order without a final shipping number.
- A sales representative follows up with the shipping cost.
- The shipping amount is settled separately from the initial purchase.
If you need a firm total before committing, this is the main thing to plan around — the product price is known immediately, the shipping price is not.
Who Pays Extra for Shipping
Additional shipping charges apply to three destinations:
| Destination | Extra shipping charge |
|---|---|
| Canada | Yes |
| Alaska | Yes |
| Hawaii | Yes |
| Contiguous US | Not flagged as extra in the listing |
The site does not publish rates for these surcharges, so the amount is confirmed by the sales representative rather than shown up front.
How Long Before Your Order Ships
The listed handling window is 3–5 business days from the original purchase date. That is the time to ship out, not the time to delivery — transit time is added on top and depends on the destination and the shipping method quoted.
A Practical Ordering Sequence
- Add the part to your cart and complete checkout — no shipping is billed yet.
- Wait for contact from a Tecnocraft sales representative with the shipping charges.
- Confirm and pay the quoted shipping.
- Expect the item to leave the warehouse 3–5 business days after the original purchase date.
Common Snags to Expect
- Budget uncertainty. Because shipping is quoted after the order, you cannot compare a landed total against another seller at the moment of checkout. If that matters, ask for a shipping quote before ordering.
- Addresses outside the contiguous US. Canada, Alaska, and Hawaii orders will carry extra charges that are not shown on the product page.
- Stock status. Some listings, such as the Password:JDM Dry Carbon Kevlar Spark Plug Cover (B-Series) and the Dry Carbon Fiber Gurney Flap for the 12–13 Civic Si 2-Door, are marked Sold Out, so the 3–5 day window only applies once an item is available.
