PRICING
Except where noted
otherwise, the List Price displayed for products on our website
represents the full retail price listed on the product itself,
suggested by the manufacturer or supplier, or estimated in
accordance with standard industry practice. The List Price is a
comparative price estimate and may or may not represent the
prevailing price in every area on any particular day. For
certain items that are offered as a set, the List Price may
represent "open-stock" prices, which means the aggregate of the
manufacturer's estimated or suggested retail price for each of
the items included in the set. Where an item is offered for sale
by one of our merchants, the List Price may be provided by the
merchant.
With respect to items sold by
Academic Furniture, we cannot confirm the price of an item until you
order; however, we do NOT charge your credit card until after
your order has entered the shipping process. Despite our best
efforts, a small number of the items in our catalog may be
mispriced. If we discover a mispricing, we will do one of the
following:
- If an item's correct price
is lower than our stated price, we will charge the lower
amount and ship you the item.
- If an item's correct price
is higher than our stated price, we will, at our discretion,
either contact you for instructions before shipping or
cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation.
Please note that this policy
applies only to products sold and shipped by Academic Furniture. Your
purchases from third-party sellers using
AcademicFurniture.com are charged at the time you place
your order, and third-party sellers may follow different
policies in the event of a mispriced item.
