You will receive an email shortly detailing your total restocking fee charge, and the cost of reshipment. Track your shipment to view its progress and estimate its arrival time.

My order items are now showing as Out of Stock, what happened? What do I do now?
Order Items can become backordered if multiple requests for the item are made before the system has a chance to update its available inventory, and requests exceed in-stock supply. If an item in your order is unexpectedly backordered, you will have an opportunity to cancel it. We will send you an email informing you of the timeframe in which that must be done. Please Note; backordered items are charged to your credit card at the same time as the rest of your order. If you decide to cancel the backordered item, we will credit your charge account. Please allow at least 5-10 business days for credit processing.

Why was my order cancelled?
There are two main causes of order cancellation, in addition to customer-initiated cancellation: extended backorder items and verification failure. If an item in your order has become unexpectedly backordered and we do not expect to have that product back in-stock within two weeks, we will automatically cancel the item from your order. Certain orders require verification so they may be processed further. We will send you an email within 1-2 days of processing your order to request any necessary verification. If we cannot verify your information within one week of your order date, your order will be cancelled. Overdrive Electronics reserves the right to limit or cancel orders for any reason, including protecting our customers and ourselves against fraud. Orders may be cancelled whenever there is doubt as to the accuracy, truth or validity of information supplied by shoppers. Overdrive Electronics reserves the right to request additional information for order processing purposes if necessary. You will be sent notification of your order cancellation by email.

Is your web site secure? What about the ordering process?
Our secure server uses advanced encryption and firewall technology to keep your personal information private. All information you input is encrypted through our secure server layer (SSL) software so that it cannot be read if intercepted while it travels to our ordering system. Once received, Overdrive Electronics employs strict security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of your information. We do not keep our customers credit card information on file for the safety of our customers and ourselves.

How long does it take to get my stuff?
Items are processed and typically shipped from our warehouse within 1-2 business days. Orders before 2pm EST are typically shipped the same business day.  If there are any extra verification steps, then it may take longer to process and ship your order.  The shipping method you choose determines the additional time it will take to deliver.
