Terms and Conditions

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS WEBSITE. All users of this site agree that access to and use of this site are subject to the following terms and conditions and other applicable law. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, please do not use this site.


Returns
We accept returns on almost everything on our website. We do not, however, accept returns on special orders not listed on our website, and customized or personalized items, unless received defective. We do not accept returns on used or opened vitamins or supplements. Items from Artistic Churchware are subject to a 20% restocking fee. Ship returns to: christianstuff.biz, in c/o New Life Book & Gift Shoppe, 69 S. Transit St., Lockport, NY 14094. Please include a copy of your order or the order # in the box. A return authorization is not necessary. Do not return products COD. COD returns will not be accepted. Once we receive your return in new, saleable condition with all original tags, shrink-wrap, boxes, etc. in place we will credit your credit card for the purchase price of the item. As a service to our customers we offer free shipping or low flat rate shipping on certain orders. When you receive free shipping or pay a $6.99-$7.99 flat rate, christianstuff.biz actually pays much more than this in most cases. Because of this we must deduct the actual shipping charges of the returned amount from your refund if the actual shipping charges are more than what you paid. If you received free shipping on your order and your return causes the order amount to fall below the free shipping threshold, we will charge the order shipping and deduct the amount from your refund. If an item arrives to you defective or damaged return the product to us within 30 days and we will send you a replacement. Except for VBS and Sunday School, returns must be made within 30 days of receiving your order.
Returns for Vacation Bible School and Quarterly Sunday School Curriculum have unique return deadlines and policies. You may return 100% of your quarterly Sunday School curriculum order if it is received in our warehouse by the following dates: Winter Quarter-January 21st; Spring Quarter-April 21st; Summer Quarter-July 21st; Fall Quarter-October 21st. Please see the front page of each VBS program on our website for the specific return policies. If you have any questions about returns please email us at service@christianstuff.biz.


Order Cancellation
If you leave a voice mail message or email immediately after placing an order we may be able to catch the order before it is processed. There is no guarantee we will be able to cancel an order after it is placed. Once the order has shipped you will have to return the package back to us and it will be handled as a return. See above for our return policy.


Sales Tax

If you have sent us a tax exempt certificate in the past, you do not have to send it again unless the church name, address, or exempt number have changed. Simply put the tax exempt # and "our tax exempt # is on file" in the comments/special instructions section. Before we ship your order we will manually deduct the sales tax.
