Order Processing

Payments

We use the Stripe service for credit card payments using Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover & Diners. We also accept PayPal for purchases made online. Credit cards and PayPal are charged when you place your order. If for any reason we are not able to fulfill your order, we will issue a refund to your credit card.

Payments by check or money orders are accepted and must be in U.S. funds. Orders paid by check or money order will not be shipped until the payment is received at The Infinite Way office.

The mailing address for payment by check or money order is:

The Infinite Way
PO Box 8260
Moreno Valley, CA 92552-8260

Sales Tax

The locally applicable sales tax will be charged for orders shipped to a California address. MP3s, downloadable PDFs, Gift Certificates, classes, and other items that are downloaded rather than shipped are not subject to sales tax.

Shipping

Most orders will be shipped within five to seven working days. We use the United States Postal Service (USPS) to deliver our orders. If USPS provides a tracking number, we will update your order with the tracking information. Please note that some shipping methods will not have tracking numbers.

Shipping Rates

Shipping rates are based on the weight of the materials you purchase and your location. We charge a small handling fee to cover the cost of our shipping materials. Shipping costs are shown on the checkout page before you place your order. We use First Class or Priority Mail through the U.S. Post Office for orders within the United States, and we use USPS First Class International or USPS International Priority Mail for those orders outside of the United States.

Back Orders

If any items in your order are backordered, we will ship the part of your order that is in stock and refund the amount of the backordered items. We will notify you of the backorder and cancellation status.

Returns

All items are guaranteed against defects in workmanship for 30 days from the date of purchase. Defective items must be returned within that 30-day period for replacement, exchange, or refund. Merchandise that has been used or altered will not be accepted for replacement or refund.

To request a replacement or refund, please email infiniteway@earthlink.net or call +1-951-656-1215 or call toll-free in North America at 1-800-922-3195 to request a return authorization and get further instructions.

We do not refund the original shipping and handling fees and return shipping fees are the responsibility of the buyer.

Privacy

We take your privacy seriously and take all measures to protect your personal information.
