Taxes

Your order will only be taxed if it is being shipped to an address within the state of Nebraska, where Nebraska state and local taxes will apply. Please note that your designated ship-to address must reflect the address of the ultimate end-user. Rapid Reel will not process any order that specifies an address of a freight forwarder, warehouse, distribution center or P.O. Box.

Shipping Costs

The amount of shipping added to your order depends on three factors:

The quantity and weight of your packages.
The ship-to address you specify.
The delivery method and options you select.

During the checkout process – and prior to confirming your order – you will have an opportunity to review the delivery method and shipping costs for your order.

Tracking Your Order

Track your order every step of the way with either of the following methods:

Online. Type in the tracking number(s) from your Invoice into the box provided on the FedEx Web site
By Phone. With your tracking number(s) at hand, call 1-800-463-3339, press 2 and follow the instructions.

Order and Ship Confirmations
A few minutes after you place your order an Order Confirmation will be sent to the e-mail address you provide during the checkout process. Once your order has shipped, a copy of the Invoice, with tracking numbers, will serve as your ship confirmation and be sent to the same e-mail address.

Canadian Orders
For orders shipped to Canada, customs and duty charges will be added to the shipping charges. The amount of these charges will depend on the size of your order and the destination province. For orders totaling less than $850 USD, Customs will typically be around $40 USD per order. Duties and taxes will range from 7% to 15% of purchase price depending on the destination province. During the checkout process – and prior to confirming your order – you will have an opportunity to review these additional charges.

FedEx International Ground Service - Approximate transit time is 3-7 business days.

FedEx Express International Economy^® - Approximate transit time is typically 2-3 business days.

Thank you for making this so easy. I know this is the way customer service is "supposed" to work, but it's nonetheless surprising and delightful when it does. Thanks for your help.

I recently purchased a few of your company's products. I just wanted to let someone there know that it is a rarity that I purchase a product or service from any person or organization that has provided me with the high level of customer service that I received from your company. Your products are of excellent quality and the people working for Rapid Reel are among the best (knowledgeable and helpful) that I have ever dealt with either professionally or as a consumer. Thank you. Best Regards.

Scott, The replacement swivel arrived and has been installed. Thank you so much for your quick response. It is rare to find someone that stands behind their product the way you have.

Scott, Thank you for your timely response to my problem. It is very pleasant to deal with an organization that responds to the needs of the customer even after the purchase has been made. Again, my sincere thanks.

Your customer service was top notch. I tried several replacement parts and then a full new product was sent and it's fine. Thanks to Scott Jelinek. Give him a customer service award!

Scott - Thank you for your quick response. I am very impressed with your company. I live in a new subdivision, so people have asked me about the reels. I have and will continue to tout your brand. In this day of overseas customer service and automated call centers, you and your company are a breath of fresh air. Keep up the great customer service.

Scott – It’s so rare to find someone willing to make an extra effort, when it’s so easy to just retreat behind the e-mail or voicemail and move on. Thanks so much for making that extra effort. It also convinces me that your company is doing something right. That’s customer service! Thanks again, Scott.

I had ordered a Rapid Reel from the Internet and it was shipped directly from your company in July. The reel was shipped but FedEx never scanned the number so apparently it got lost and it never got to me. I called and a gentlemen by the name of Scott had another shipped to me. I received it today. I really appreciate what your company (especially Scott) did for me and the excellent service and friendly attitude. Now when everyone sees my Rapid Reel, I will make sure they know about your company. Thank you for all your help.

Just wanted to let you know that FedEx delivered my new replacement swivel. I like the redesign—I think it will be more rugged and durable. Thanks for your and your team’s quick response to the problem I had. I am impressed with the way your company attacks and solves design problems with your product.

I just wanted to take a moment and inform you I received the replacement parts you sent, and they worked perfectly. Your assistance demonstrates excellent customer service complementing an excellent product. Two friends have already ordered my Rapid Reel model, and I will continue to promote this product to those who need it.

I would like to thank you for your help. It's great that the Rapid Reel company is willing to stand behind its products. In the near future I plan to purchase one of your pressure washer hose reels as well as a garden hose reel (or two). Keep up the good work (and service!). From a satisfied current, and future customer, I would just like to say thanks!

Thank you for your quick response. I am very impressed with you and your company's attitude toward customer service. Obviously you are not in the telecommunications industry. I love my reel and now will be even more likely to recommend your products. Thanks again.

Thank you very much for sending the parts for my hose reel cart. Your customer service is on equal par with your quality equipment.

I just received a new "swivel/hose assembly" for my Rapid Reel and I just had to write to tell you how pleased I am with your company. You sent me this replacement at no cost to me and when I looked at the instructions I could not believe my eyes, what a work of art. Yours is a company that is truly professional in every way. What a pleasure to deal with you when most businesses in this day and age could care less. I will surely recommend you to everyone I know. Thank you.
