Our system provides excellent shipping information that is live and constantly being updated. When you view a product, you'll see a "Usually Leaves our Warehouse In _ Days..." that specifies a number of days. If the system says 1 day or 3 days, the item is in stock. Many of our items ship directly from trusted partner warehouses. In these cases, you will see something like "Usually Ships in 17 days". This means that on average, this supplier has shipped to our customers in 17 days. Though not perfect, this is a reasonably good estimate. Other phrases you may see are: "We expect this item in stock on __/__/____" . If you see "Contact Us for Availability" This item is out of stock but is able to be purchsed and shipped directly from the manufacturer. In these cases, it is ussually 3 days to 2 weeks but depending on the demand for certain products and manufacturer production schedules, shipping can vary.

The picture of the product does not match the description. Why is this?
In some cases, the exact image of the product may not match the description when you use the pulldown menu to select a different color, size or, model etc... Because of the amount of products we offer online and the availability of some items, we are simply not able to provide photos of every single available product. Sometimes, just one color or size is chosen to be photograhed to represent that group of products. Rest assured that what you are seeing is the closest representation of the product available and you will get precisely the color, size and model you've ordered according to the description you are seeing when you checkout.

Why do many of the Drum Sets you offer show hardware in the photos if it is not included?
Drum sets, individual toms and some Percussion products are typically photographed with hardware (stands) and cymbals in order to provide an appealing representation and to demonstrate how the drumset would look in a playable state. Many of the photos are professionally taken and provided to us by the manufacturer. It is not our practice nor is it the practice of our Manufactures to mislead or decieve our customers. This is simply the best way to provide our customers with an image that can best portray the Drum Set. Please read the descriptions carefully as some Drum Sets include hardware and some DO NOT. We will deliver precisely and only what is stated in the description of the item you purchase. "Hardware" refers to, hi-hat & cymbal stands, bass drum pedals, snare drum stands, and drum thrones.

A drum set purchase can be expensive and is very personal to some drummers. Our call center has some of the most well-informed and experienced drummers willing to help guide you through your next Drum Set purchase. Its in our best interest to get things right the first time. If you have any concerns, doubts, or require clarification on the details of a drum set, please call 800-462-2263.
