For items temporarily out of stock your order can be put in queue to assure you will receive the item when their shipment arrives, or we can assist you in finding a similar product. If we advise you of a date as to when the manufacturer expects the item to arrive, please note this is an approximate date. The item may ship sooner than expected or they may be delayed beyond our control. Some shipments arrive from overseas.

Safe & Secure Shopping

Is my personal information safe during transmission? YES!
HomeAndStuff.com is secured with a Comodo Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificate to encrypt and protect your data when interfacing with our application. This, coupled with our fully protected and secure application servers, ensures that your data is safer than even on your own computer. On the bottom right hand corner of our website you will see the red Comodo EV SSL Site certificate ensuring our site is authentic and secure. The EV SSL certification delivers a new level of trust for our website visitors. Extended Validation SSL (EV SSL) Certificates build on the existing SSL certificate format, but provide an additional layer of protection in a strictly defined issuance process created to ensure that the certificate holder is who they claim to be. Visitors to EV SSL-secured Web sites can trust that the organization that operates the site has undergone and passed the rigorous EV SSL authentication process as defined by the CA/Browser Forum

What is an EV SSL certificate?
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is the strongest encryption standard for the Internet. It safeguards the transmission of confidential data by encrypting the information you send to our server. Any information that you provide when you register is securely encrypted and cannot be intercepted on its passage through the Internet. Extended Validation SSL is the next generation of SSL Certificate. EV SSL Certificates were designed to combat the emerging ingenious and organized methods of online fraud such as "phishing" attacks. Internet users thus will be able to trust that particular Web sites are what they claim to be, rather than fraudulent mirror sites operated by perpetrators of phishing schemes. The stringent verification processes developed by the Certification Authority/Browser Forum (founded by Comodo in 2006), provides extra assurance of the SSL Certificate-holder's authenticity, making Extended Validation SSL Certificates essential for any online business and critical for Companies such as HomeAndStuff.com, who are committed to earning your trust.

Some of the key verification requirements for EV SSL Certificates include:

When visiting an SSL secured website using the latest Web Browsers such Internet Explorer 7 or Firefox 3, the EV SSL certificate provides a highly visible indicator that the website is a safe place to conduct online business. In addition to the already familiar "https" and gold padlock, websites using EV SSL Certificates will also display a green address bar in Windows Explorer with information about the certificate owner and SSL Certificate issuer prominently displayed. This is the biggest advancement in SSL authentication in the past decade, and conveys our site security. The new certificates trigger high-security browsers to turn the address bar green (on the final check out page) immediately indicating to customers that providing personal info during their transactions is safe.

Is my personal information safe after transmission? YES!
HomeAndStuff.com uses Comodo's HackerProof Daily Scanning Service. The HomeAndStuff.com website is tested and certified daily to pass the HackerProof Vulnerability scan. An active HackerProof TrustMark as seen in the top right corner of our site only appears when HomeAndStuff.com website passes the certification requirements. HackerProof continuously monitor our servers for vulnerabilities and ensure hackers and cyber criminals never compromise your personal information. Over 200,000 organizations rely on Comodo to protect and certify the security and authenticity of their websites, networks and online infrastructure. Comodo provides websites, users, vendors and customers alike with the highest level of online trust and assurance in order for you to surf and transact safely online.

ShopSite shopping cart:
ShopSite is a shopping cart software which ensures that orders taken are handled in a secure fashion by working with standard secure protocols such as SSL. No credit card information is ever stored.

Security

We Care for Your Security

We understand that you're concerned about the security and privacy of your online transactions. This is why we use Comodo to ensure that your valuable data, such as credit card details, are encrypted when you interact with our site.

"How do you secure my payment information?"

We employ state-of-the-art data encryption to ensure safe and secure transactions to our site.

Your computer and ours agree to transpose whatever we are sending into an unintelligible "hash" of characters, using a technology called SSL. For example:

3048 0241 00C9 18FA CF8D EB2D EFD5 FD37 89B9 E069 EA97 FC20 5E35 F577 EE31 C4FB C6E4 4811 7D86 BC8F BAFA 362F 922B F01B 2F40 C744 2654 C0DD 2881 D673 CA2B 4003 C266 E2CD CB02 0301 0001

Without the information on your computer or ours, no one can understand our encrypted communication.

For your safety, please expect anyone who communicates confidential information with you on the Internet to use encryption, the way we do.

What is SSL?

Secure Sockets Layer, SSL, is the security technology for encrypting a link between a web server and a browser. All data passed between our web server and your browser remains private and secure.

Whenever you communicate with us on our payment pages, a small yellow padlock appears in the bottom right-hand corner of your browser as a sign that we are now engaging SSL. (Another sign on some browsers is that when you enter the secure area of the site, the background of the address bar turns dark yellow or bright green. You'll also notice that http:// is replaced by https:// (The 's' stands for 'Secure').

"How do I know you are a real organization?"

To generate an encrypted SSL transmission, a web server requires an SSL Certificate. Checking a website's certificate is good practice that helps you avoid spoof websites, sometimes called "phishing" sites. To check the certificate, click on the padlock. Your browser will show you the name of the owner of the certificate. This name should match the name of the website operator.

Our SSL certificates are issued by a leading certificate authority, Comodo CA. Comodo is Web Trust-compliant, meaning that their business practices and processes have been rigorously audited according to AICPA (American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) guidelines by an independent approved auditor (Ernst & Young).

Comodo High Assurance certificates enable a high level of encryption. They also confirm that a company is a legally accountable organization.

To receive a High Assurance SSL Certificate from Comodo, we had to demonstrate to them that we are an existing business, along with our control over the domain you are visiting. When you shop online, you deserve to be know who you are interacting with.

Seeing a site with a High Assurance SSL Certificate, confirms two essential factors:

Damaged Products

Missing item: If you have ordered more than one item it may be arriving from a different manufacturer and not arrive at the same time. Your order may ship in more than one box. At times the second or third box may arrive shortly thereafter within the next couple of days.

Delivery Times

"Processing time:" + "Shipping time" = Total time to receive your order.*

Most items:
Processing time - Is based from the time you place your order until the time it ships.

Your order may take 2 - 5 business days (do not count weekends), to process. Once we receive your order we then forward it to our manufacturer.

Shipping time:
Products are shipped from various manufacturers distribution centers. Shipping times may vary.
For example: If the item is shipping from the manufacturers distribution center on the west coast and your destination address in on the west coast the delivery time will be shortened.
Shipping times may take between 3 - 10 business days.
*Total time to receive order may take between 5 - 15 business days.

*Our dates are estimates and are based on several factors. Various manufacturers may have specific turnaround times and may vary from 2 - 4 weeks. Please check information on specific product or call for details.

The item(s) on your order may arrive at separate times if they are shipping from different manufacturers.

Expedite an order
To expedite your order (Next Day Air, 2 Day Air, or 3 day select) there is an additional charge.
Some manufacturers/distributors do not ship expedited delivery.
Please call our toll free number 1-877-237-2253 or email customercare@homeandstuff.com for details. Provide us with the description of the item, your zip code and delivery option. We will respond to your request within 24 - 48 hours Monday - Friday.
If you have already placed your order and requested an expedited service we will contact you to advise if this manufacturer ships expedited and with the additional freight charge for your approval, prior to processing the order.
Should you choose Next Day air, 2-Day air or 3 day select shipping this does not necessarily mean your order will arrive in One, Two or Three days. This is the actual "shipping time" and not the processing time which can add another couple of days to your order. The manufacturer will take a couple of days to process and prepare your order prior to it leaving their distribution center. Orders are not processed, picked up or delivered on the weekend. You will find the additional expedited shipping charge usually is prohibitive.

White Glove Delivery:
Some manufacturers offer white glove delivery, there may be an additional fee. White Glove service may offer unpacking and assembly of the item. Since extra steps are taken to ensure that your order is delivered in excellent condition, the "shipping time" may take from 1 to 4 weeks. This does not include the "processing time" which is the time it takes for the order to be processed and leave the manufacturers distribution center. You are still required to inspect your shipment upon arrival and advise us should there be any concerns. The delivery Company will contact you to arrange a delivery time. Please allow a two to five hour window Monday - Friday during regular business hours. Saturday deliveries for this service may not be possible, please speak with your sales associate.

Shipping companies charge by weight and dimensions of each package. Should you order a quantity of more than one item the package will not be consolidated.

Delivery Acceptance and Signature
Usually a signature is not required for most items. Couriers follow their discretion and base their decision as to the procedure usually followed in your area. We cannot guarantee whether the carrier will leave your package at your location if no one is available to accept. Should the courier not leave your package on your doorstep usually they leave a note explaining your options for re-delivery. The courier will make three attempts and at which that point the package would be returned to the manufacturer. If this occurs you will be responsible for the shipping charges there and back and the manufacturers restocking fee.
Should you request a delivery by signature only we would have to contact our manufacturer as there may be an additional charge for this service.
