Order Processing
Orders are processed quickly and ship out on weekdays excluding holidays. Some products and services may add additional delays to shipping which include but are not limited to:
-Nordic Skis: Race skis are hand picked and tested to confirm fit (based on height/weight) and quality, which may delay shipping up to 24 hours.
-Poles to be cut: If you are requesting a pole to be cut to a custom length, this may delay shipping up to 24 hours.
-Basic wax: wax services on skis including hotbox and single layer glide may delay shipping up to 24 hours.
-Premium wax: wax service on skis including World Cup Hotbox, Hotbox + Race hardening and and other race wax services may delay shipping up to 48 hours.
-Stonegrind services: Stonegrinding is an advanced multi-step process that may delay shipping up to 10 days, although it is often much quicker.
-Outgoing shipments/shipping windows: outgoing shipments are picked up daily Monday through Friday excluding holidays. There is no pickup on weekends or holidays such as Christmas Day and Eve, New Years Day and Eve, Thanksgiving, Labor day and The 4th of July. No orders are shipped on those days. If an order is placed during or near a no-ship window (including expedited or next day air shipping), Gear West is not responsible for resulting shipping delays.
Shipping Restrictions - Some items have specific shipping restrictions or cannot be shipped at all. Restrictions include:
-We currently are unable to ship bicycles.
-Some products such as liquid wax and wax remover cannot be shipped via air transport due to safety regulations/government restrictions, and therefore can only be shipped standard ground
