How We Ship:
Ground Shipping
We primarily ship ground with FedEx. Shipping prices on our site are estimated with FedEx software. These charges are estimates and can change when actual size is taken into consideration.
Shipping is no longer calculated solely on the weight of the package but rather by the dimensional weight of the package. Shippers are essentially selling the space a box occupies in their truck instead of just relying on the weight. Because of this change the length of your box will always increase the cost of your shipping. When we actually pack your order shipping charges may increase due to dimensional weight.
There is a $0.75 per lb fee for cutting glass into smaller lengths. If you do not request in the comments box of your order to have your glass cut to smaller lengths your shipping may increase from our shipping estimate. When we actually pack your order shipping charges may increase due to dimensional weight. We use a scoring knife to scratch and break the glass to assist you in saving money on shipping. In no way to we guarantee clean cuts on your glass. For our employee’s safety, we only cut rod smaller than 16mm in diameter and tubing up to 38mm in diameter.
Please use our comments box on your order to let us know if you are concerned with your shipping charges changing. Please ensure that your email and phone number that is in your account information is as accurate as possible and we will do our best to make sure you are contacted about these changes.
Orders shipped though FedEx can be insured at $1.15 per $100.00 value. Should you choose not to insure your prepaid order you will be solely responsible for any damages incurred during shipping. All of the prices listed in this catalog and website are subject to change without notice.
ABR reserves the right to assist you in keeping shipping charges low by changing the carrier on these packages. In order to avoid a carrier change please note in the comments box of your order if you would like us to keep shipping as you have requested no matter the increase in cost.
All duty fees, destination charges, local taxes, brokerage costs, and any other costs associated with shipping the order are the responsibility of the customer. These fees will change from country to country and from order to order depending on what products are purchased.

Protocol for Item Exchanges/Returns:
Any and all missing/damaged items must be reported within 24 hours of receipt of your order.

We ask that you call us to notify us of any returns before shipping them so we know to keep an eye out. We also ask that you include a copy of the invoice for the returned item in order for us to verify your customer account information and that the item was purchased from us.
If you were sent an incorrect item by mistake (and you have verified it with a customer service representative with pictures), we will send out the correct item(s) with a return label (sometimes referred to as a "call tag") for you to ship the incorrect item(s) back to us. By using our exchange program you agree to utilize the return label within 30 days of you having received it.

Protocol for Missing or Damaged Items:

When submitting a concern about missing or damaged items to ABR Imagery, we ask that you do the following prior to submitting the concern:
1.) Check your entire order using your invoice and/or packing list as a reference to ensure that the items in question were actually marked as shipped or not. Do not throw away any packing material from your order.
2.) Small items such as opals, silver, swivels, etc. are usually taped or wrapped to larger items in the order if any. Check (and double-check) your packaging if any of your smaller items appear to be missing.
3.) If there are damaged items in your shipment, take multiple pictures of the damage and be ready to be submit .JPG or .PNG files to us. Pictures should be as clear as possible, and should include shots of the outer and inner packaging, the broken item(s), and the shipping label.
Once we begin the claim process, ABR Imagery will not be held liable for any discrepancies that deviate from the original missing/damage claim. This is why we ask that you check your ENTIRE order before calling.
You are required to hold onto all boxes and packaging materials for a minimum of 20 days after the claim has been started, should the carrier deem it necessary to inspect it. Failure to keep the boxes/packaging will result in a denied claim.
If you did not pay for the order insurance at the time of the original order, ABR Imagery will credit your account or replace damaged products only after your claim has been successfully resolved.

ABR Imagery’s Green Initiatives:
At ABR we are committed to becoming part of the solution, not the problem. In this spirit, we have begun a program known as the New Green Initiative which is geared toward reducing our company’s impact on the environment.
As part of the New Green Initiative, we have installed motion sensor lighting and low-voltage bulbs in our lighting fixtures. We use our factory length skylight for illumination whenever possible.
We reuse packaging materials from our incoming shipments and power down office equipment when not in use. The latest component to the New Green Initiative is a reduction in paper consumption by emailing customer invoices instead of including a paper copy on the box. This also reduces plastic envelopes from the packages. If you would like to have a paper invoice just ask and we can convert you back!
We look forward to continuing our partnership in glass and in making environmentally sound decisions!
