Payment

We accept PayPal payments which means you are able to pay with Visa, MasterCard and most major credit and debit cards that PayPal accepts.

Shipping

I try to get my orders out the door the same day payment is made and most of them do, however if it's not the same day, all orders ship within 1-2 business days! If there's an issue where the actual shipping time has changed I will notify you immediately.  When you buy multiple items from my store you have the option of combining the orders at checkout to receive a shipping discount. Please be sure to take advantage of the Combined Shipping Fees for the most savings possible.  If eBay's shipping calculator seems off, just contact me for possible pricing adjustments.

Please note that for international shipments:
Your order may be subject to import duties, taxes, customs charges and the like, once your packages reaches your country.  It is your responsibility to pay for these charges. First Class Mail International can take 1 - 5 weeks (5 weeks is unusual but has happened once or twice).
Priority Mail International usually takes 7 - 11 days, although delays with customs officials may happen, so actual shipping times are out of our control.

Warranty Issues?  No Problem!!
The manufacturers have different warranty periods for different products.  If you product fails within the warranty period, just send it back to me and I'll replace it with a brand new one!  The buyer will be responsible for all shipping costs to and from Sprinkler Supply Wholesale. 

Don't See What You're Looking For?
No problem!  Just let me know what it is and I'll promptly quote you.  If you accept, I will make a listing for you.  We have everything irrigation related at deeply discounted prices.

I'm sorry but my local government wants me to add 6.5% sales tax to all orders shipped to Florida.

I will gladly accept returns if you ordered the wrong item or even if you just changed your mind. The buyer has 30 days to return the item (the buyer pays shipping fees). The item will be refunded once it has been inspected to verify that it has not been used, installed and in it's original packaging. I will have to deduct my shipping cost to you though. Please contact me before any returns are made. Thanks!
