Product Questions

 

I am not sure of which size dome or case to order for my display item.

We recommend that you allow for at least 1” of clearance on all sides of your display item.  For instance, if you have a sculpture that measures 6” L x 6” W x 10” H, you would need a dome or case measuring at least 8” L x 8” W x 11” tall.  If you need further guidance, you can contact us via our contact page.

I have an item to display that you won’t fit into any of the cases you have available.  Can you make a custom case or dome?

While we do not make custom domes, we do offer custom glass and acrylic display cases. If you are interested in a custom case, please contact us via our contact page and be sure to include the exact dimensions of the item you wish to display, and whether you would like a glass or acrylic case, and one of our representatives will send you a price quote.  Keep in mind that custom cases are not returnable, and take up to 4 weeks to ship out to you.

Can I return a custom made glass or acrylic case?

Because custom made cases are made specifically to your specifications at the time of order, we are unable to accept returns on them.  Our customer service representatives are happy to assist you in ensuring that you order the size that will best suit your needs, depending on the item(s) you wish to display.  Contact us via our contact page and be sure to include the exact dimensions of the item you wish to display.

Placing An Order

 

What is the average time it takes to receive my order once I place it?

While it can take 7 – 10 business days for orders processed with standard shipping to leave our warehouses, orders typically ship within a 3 – 5 day period.  The actual shipping times vary depending on the location of the recipient of the order. Once the order does ship, it is easy to track your package(s) on our order status page.  Orders processed by express shipping are guaranteed to reach the recipient within 3 – 5 business days after the order is placed.

I’m having trouble putting items in my shopping cart and checking out.

Our shopping cart - and all shopping carts - need to have cookies enabled because only with this option enabled during the process (add to cart, giving names, address etc) is it possible for the cart to remember each customer's settings. Many people disable cookies on their computer - a leftover from the times when everyone thought it would create problems for a computer to have cookies enabled. If you do not know how to enable the cookies on your computer, you can visit the site linked below, which has instructions on how to do this. 

http://webmaster.info.aol.com/cookieguide.html

While this site does offer instructions that we have found useful, Fine Home Displays is not responsible for the content on this website, or for the outcome of any changes you make to your computer based on this site's instructions.

I can get items into my shopping cart, but I can’t seem to checkout.

Sometimes, our customers experience this problem when there is a firewall installed on their computer, or on the network their computer is on.  If you know how to disable your firewall, you can do so before you place your order, and then re-enable it once you have completed your order.  However, if you do not feel comfortable doing this, we are happy to take your order by fax or phone.

Can you process Overnight and Second Day orders?

If you need your order faster than the time that Express Shipping provides, please put a note in the Additional Comments area of the checkout page, telling us the day and time of day that you need your order.  We can process your order for Overnight or Second Day shipment, but there will be an additional fee involved, which we will notify you of once we process your order.  Please keep in mind that orders cannot typically ship the same day that you place your order.  For example, if Customer A places and Overnight order on Monday, the order will ship on Tuesday, and arrive on Wednesday.

Sales tax is charged on all orders that have a shipping destination in the State of Ohio.  If you are a non-profit organization with a shipping address in Ohio, please put a note that includes your Federal Tax ID number in the additional comments area at the time of checkout.  We will then issue you a credit in the amount of the sales tax that our shopping cart calculates, and email you a new receipt with an accurate order total.

FHD maintains warehouse locations around the country.  Often times, your order will be shipping from 2 or more locations.  If you check your order status and see that not all of the products have tracking numbers next to them, it means that those items are shipping from another locations.  They will most likely ship within the next day or so.

We will do our very best to make changes to your order if you request this service within a 4 hour window from the time you place your order.  Due to the volume of orders that we process each day, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to make the change.

I placed an order and was notified later that an item I ordered was out of stock.

Sometimes, we experience a delay in the updating of our computer system with regard to inventory levels so that items appear to be in stock when they actually are not.  If the backorder will result in only a short delay, we will inform you and keep your order open, shipping the item when it becomes available. If the backorder will be for more than several weeks, we will cancel this part of your order, and issue you a full credit.

Back to Table of Contents

 

Can you notify me when an item comes back into stock?

While we are unable to do this at present, we are working on some technology to be able to provide this service to our customers.  In the meantime, we ask that you keep checking back on our site, as we receive shipments of product weekly.

I received my order and there is no invoice or packing slip in the box.

We do not include any packing slip or invoice in our packages.  All invoices and receipts are sent via email.  Be sure to print out your order detail receipt and the order confirmation receipt that you receive via email so that you can compare your order contents once you receive it.

I placed an order and did not receive an order detail receipt in my email box.

This can happen for a couple of reasons.  Sometimes customers do not fully complete the checkout process, so that even though you have entered an order into our system, you exited the process before the email receipt was generated.  The other issue we run into has to do with Spam Blocking Programs.  Sometimes our emails go directly into our customers’ spam folders.  When ordering with our stores, be sure to add the following email addresses to your “friends” list so that our emails can get through to you:

 

Fine Home Displays

customerservice@finehomedisplays.com

orders@finehomedisplays.com

Fine Home Designs

customerservice@finehomedesigns.com

orders@finehomedesigns.com

 

If you haven’t received an order detail receipt, email us via our contact page and be sure to include the name the order was placed under and the CustID if you know it, and we can resend it to you.

This document will include a packing slip and address label for shipping.  Once you ship your package via the carrier of your choice back to the appropriate location at your cost, you must email us with your tracking information so that we can be on the lookout for your return, and issue your credit promptly.  When we receive and process your returned product(s), we will issue you a credit for the full purchase price of your item(s).

I returned my order but I haven’t received a credit yet.

If you returned your order without notifying us first, your refund can be delayed.  We ask that all customers include the paperwork that we email you and notify us when they have shipped their return package so that we can track the package and issue a prompt credit.  Typically, it takes several weeks to process your return fully and issue a credit to your account.
