  1. Order placed – when will the order be shipped?

Answer: All order shipping updates are done automatically to our online webstore order system. Please use your email (the one you used to place order) to login your account to see most up-to-date updates. If you didn’t register an account at the time of order, you can register it now with your same email. The website will send you a password automatically for you to login. You can change the default password if you wish after you login.

3. Why I didn’t receive the account login credentials email or any order updates?

Answer: The most common reasons are – Reason #1: you might have a typo in your email address when you register your account so the emails cannot be delivered. Simply register a new account with your correct email again. Reason #2: your email server blocked our email as spam. It is common these days that email server blocks out automatic emails. Please add grantfidelity at gmail dot com in your email contact list and mark us as a ‘safe sender’. Reason #3: For those using gmail, automatic emails are often routed to sub-folders in your inbox or Spam folder – Inbox subfolders are called ‘Promotions’ or ‘Social’ or ‘Updates’. You can find those Gmail inbox tabs in horizontal in your gmail inbox top header. Be sure to check your spam folder too, and add us to your safe sender contact list.

I got a USPS tracking number…. now what.. why isn’t it moving?

For tube orders from USA customers, we sometimes use Canadian domestic courier service to ship to the border of Alberta/Montana, then customs brokers clear the parcels through US Customs into the USA for final delivery by USPS. Once the parcels entered the USA (AFTER customs clearance and released by US Customs), the USPS tracking number will become live tracking on www.usps.com, and the journey starts from a small town called Sweet Grass, Montana.

Don’t jump when you see your order was shipped from Montana, not from Canada. It’s just cross-border paperwork to get on USPS shipping network.

In the above shipping scenario, USA Customer will receive a 26 digit USPS tracking number as soon as we process your order in Canada – ie. pick n pack your orders and give the boxes to the Canadian couriers (this will usually happen within 48 hours of receiving your orders).

Customers in USA need to wait (patiently) for 2-3 business days for domestic transportation within Canada and border crossing into USA to complete, before starting to click on usps.com for updated USPS tracking.

What if a tube is ‘out of stock’?

When placing order on the website, you may be notified that a product is ‘out of stock’ at time of order or after the order is placed (we take many phone orders so the website stock level may not have been updated in real time).

When the product listing has ‘out-of-stock’ notice and if we have plan to re-stock it, we will be glad to accept pre-order with payment by credit card or Paypal. Your pre-order will have priority over others to be fulfilled once new stock arrives. Many our ‘Best of Best’ top tubes have waiting list once it becomes out of stock – these tubes are of limited quantity. First come first serves so please get your pre-order in line as soon as you can.

In each factory run of tube production, tubes meeting Grant Fidelity test method Top 10% Best Grade requirements are very limited. We will never ship lower quality grade tubes in order to rush to fulfill an order.

If a tube is out of stock and your order has been placed, we will email you in 24-48 hours letting you know of future stock availability. You have the option either to take an immediate full refund or your order will be in line among other pre-orders for guaranteed fulfillment from new arrival stock.

Thank you.
