In certain instances you may receive an overage or a shortage on your order.

Due to manufacturing quality and production standards there will be over runs and occasionally under runs. The Safety Award Store will do everything possible to reduce this occurrence. Over or under runs occur do to the fact that quantity of the products are determined by weight since its not possible to actually count the exact quantities in a mass production process The industry standard on most products is ± 5%. For instance, if you order 2,000 pens you could potentially receive between 1900 and 2100 pens.

We will bill either your account or credit card only for the actual quantity shipped. If you have any questions please contact customer service at 1-888-289-8635
