SkiPulk Terms and Conditions
SHIPPING DETAILS
Shipping is free to the lower 48 US states!
Shipping surcharges apply to Alaska and Canada – they will be added during the checkout process.
For other international orders, go through the checkout process to create a purchase order. After we receive shipping quotes, we’ll email you a final invoice along with instructions to complete your order.
INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMS FEES: For international orders outside of the US, we do not charge any of the applicable duties and taxes. Those are the responsibility of the purchaser upon arrival and are separate from the amount charged during checkout.
SHIPPING CARRIERS: We ship pulk sled orders to the lower 48 US states with FedEx. Parts orders including harnesses and poles may ship with the US Postal Service.
SHIPPING TIME: Please allow 2-3 days to build your order plus 3-5 days in transit. (Note that build times can vary during the winter season and shipping times can be unpredictable). Orders to Alaska, Canada and other international destinations typically ship with the US Postal Service and transit times can be longer.
EXPEDITED SHIPPING: Please contact Ashley at 320-250-0038 if you need expedited shipping.
Occasionally for the Expedition pulk or large orders we will need to adjust shipping costs when sending to Alaska or an international destination.
In order to avoid the highest shipping fees, we have to shrink-wrap your sled rather than use a box. This can result in scratches in transit. Customers ordering this option need to be willing to accept that. Expedition fiberglass pulks are shipped in a box.
STATEMENT OF RISK
Winter travel is inherently dangerous with environmental extremes that can lead to serious injury, loss of limb or even death. SkiPulk.com is not liable for any damages that result from use of our products and parts.
WARRANTY/REFUND/EXCHANGE POLICY
You are buying from a small, two person business run from our home shop. We think of our customers as winter sports colleagues. While we do not have the resources to offer long term warranties, we will refund the purchase price for a returned product due to dissatisfaction with its performance in the first 90 days. (Customer is responsible for return shipping. A fee may apply for gear that is not in new condition).
Returns for damage due to neglect and/or misuse are not covered.
We will replace a part that breaks due to a manufacturing flaw in the first 90 days (this does not include damage due to normal wear and tear).
Items in new condition can be returned for a refund within the first 90 days, or exchanged for a different size (customer is responsible for return shipping costs). There may be instances where a restocking fee may apply for the return or exchange of a sled due to the high cost of shipping oversized items.
