Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our store, and add any items that you wish to buy to the shopping cart. After you have finished your selection, click on ‘Checkout’ and you will be taken through the processes to finalize and finish your order.

When sales and other special pricing is applicable, including “tier” pricing, the overall discounted rate will be limited to a total value of no more than $2,000.00 even though the order may qualify for a larger discount amount.  All applicable discounts will be offered up to a total of $2,000.00 per month for any one client.

Our site is secure and 100% PCI Compliant. We accept card payments from banks based in the U.S. only.  We accept Visa, American Express, Discover and MasterCard.  We do not charge for any item until it is ready to ship.  If you do not wish to pay online, you may provide your debit or credit card information by phone or by email (through attachment).  Do not send your CC/DC numbers, expiration and CVV code at the same time by email. There is a 1.5% credit/debit card transaction fee.  If payment is made by ACH, Western Union or Money gram, no fees apply. We also accept Wire Transfer ($35.00 fee) and PayPal (with appropriate currency conversion fee).

Special Instructions field:

During check out, if you would like us to be aware of any special handling or condition, please let us know in the Special Instructions Field.  Instruction examples might include things like “Please value this order at (specified amount)”, or “please leave this order on the front porch”, or “please send order without requiring signature”.  Failure to place your special instruction in this field at check out does not constitute an error in you order on the part of True Tape.  Sending any instruction via email or text, including Whatsapp is no guarantee that the instruction will be received and followed.

Protection of Intellectual Property:

True Tape reserves all rights to its Intellectual Property which includes, but is not limited to:

  • inventions;
  • literary and artistic works;
  • designs;
  • symbols
  • Slogans
  • Logos
  • names; and brands and
  • images used in commerce.

Client/Purchaser agrees to surrender to True Tape any or all of the above (or other allied IP) in the event that True Tape believes an  IP Rights abuse exists or has occurred.  Such abuse includes; but, is not limited to:  rebranding, or attempts to consolidate or monopolize a market, regardless of where that market might be in the global economy.   Enforcement includes, but is not limited to: immediate suspension of infringement,  reimbursement of all monetary losses associated with infringement, reimbursement of all legal fees associated with defense of IP Rights, remedies,  reimbursement of all allied costs garnered to protect and/or enforce protection over IP.

Order Specifics:

When confirmation of your order is received, this is to indicate that we have received your order. It does not indicate that a contract exists between us. We will indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract between us, when we send you an invoice. We have included this term to protect us in the case that a mistake has been made in pricing, we have inadvertently under priced goods, or we are no longer able to supply a particular product for some reason. In the case of a change of price, we will always attempt to contact you first to ensure that the price is acceptable. Orders that are not funded will be returned to inventory after 15-days. If subsequently re-ordered, the order will be subject to the current pricing which may include increases that might have occurred during that period of time.  We are not required to provide advance notice of pricing increases.

Shipping and Handling (Updated 7/29/2021)

IMPORTANT: Direct Signature will be required for all domestic orders shipped with a value in excess of $500.00 unless specified otherwise by the client through the “other instructions” field.  Please note that in order to send your order without signature required (even though it exceeds $500 in value) we must UNDER value your order.  This means that we will mark the order just under $500 when we ship it and if it is lost or undergoes damage in shipping, the total value of your claim cannot exceed the amount declared.

SHIPPING COSTS are subject to change without notice. The base shipping rate of $12.00 reflects a one-pound, domestic, ground delivery to a business location not requiring a signature. Adjustments may apply for other delivery options, weights, or destinations. Final costs are based on weight and size of the package/s being shipped and the method of delivery chosen by the customer. We DO NOT charge separate handling fees.  We offer free Ground shipping to a Business location on all domestic orders in excess of $1,500.00.

All orders shipped are insured to their invoice value by True Tape using FedEx or UPS unless otherwise limited by the request of the client.  Shippers typically calls this the “Carriage Value”.  When lost or damaged, completely or partially, en route to your location, True Tape will initiate a claim for the damaged and/or lost product.  BE ADVISED:  Submitting a request for a claim is no guarantee that the claim will be funded.  We have filed a handful of claims over the years with FedEx and have found they are loathe to reimburse.  We encourage our clients who have lost or damaged goods to also contact FedEx to facilitate a timely and positive outcome.  Please be aware, if a package is lost or damaged, it is shipped from True Tape “Ex Works”, therefore, replacements will be sent out at the purchaser’s expense until reimbursement, if it occurs at all.

All International Orders are handled as “Ex Works” meaning that True Tape is no longer liable for the package as soon as it is received by the respective shipping company and “DDU” which is “Deliver Duties Unpaid” meaning the recipient of the package is responsible for all importation duties, fees (including impound fees), and taxes. If your parcel is lost in transit, a delay in order fulfillment is likely while an investigation is opened through the respective shipper (i.e. FedEx). If requested by the customer, a replacement order can be shipped immediately at the customer’s expense. If reimbursed by the shipper for the lost parcel, the customer will receive the full credit that is due.  Please call with any questions or concerns.  All losses are limited by the amount of the “carriage value” that is declared at the time of shipping.  Quotes for shipping products abroad are valid for 10-days and must be re-evaluated prior to shipping should there be delays in funding.

Delivery Schedule

We begin filling Domestic orders as soon as they are received. Most of our orders are normally shipped within 24-hours of the time that they are received.  If we do not ship within 24-hours of reception of your order, we will pay the Domestic Ground FedEx shipping charge.  You agree that proof of delivery supplied by our delivery company is sufficient evidence to establish that goods have been received.  International orders are processed as soon as funds are fully received.

Back Orders

If your item is not in stock, we will back order it for you or cancel the back order depending upon whether the items requested are no longer available or will take longer than 7-days to send. We will pay the shipping cost on all Domestic back-ordered items. International orders that cannot be immediately fulfilled at the time the order is placed, will be set aside until all items can be shipped at once.

Shipping

True Tape is under contractual obligation to FedEx and UPS who are entrusted with the care, custody and control of delivery of orders leaving True Tape.  There are several important considerations that must be understood regarding our shipping policy. (1) Any claims for loss, damage or missing items are limited to the amount of insurance declared.  In addition, there is no guarantee that the shipper will reimburse for any loss when contents are missing when delivered.  (2) In all events, True Tape terms are “Ex-Works”.  This means that, as soon as the shipper has possession of your order, True Tape is no longer responsible for its well-being or handling.  On our part, we will do whatever packaging is reasonable and necessary to protect your order while in route to your location.  (3) If damage or loss occurs, you must engage the shipper to submit a claim for loss.  We will facilitate your claim to the extent that we can assure proper packaging was used given the nature of the items shipped. If you wish to have your order replicated, due to loss or damage, we will duplicate your order so long as the duplicated order is funded in full while you await any reimbursement from the shipper.  Simply submitting a claim, even if it appears “valid” is no guarantee that the shipper will reimburse for your loss. (4) Given that our current arrangement with our shippers is based upon the volume we ship, we will no longer ship using our client’s shipping account, but on a case-by-case basis.  This allows us to maintain lower costs for all of the clients to whom we ship.  If you have any questions about these terms, please contact our office by phone: 888-503-4389 or by email: sales@truetape.com.

Mistakes in Ordering

Mistakes in orders placed online by customers can be exchanged for the proper item/s for a full refund so long as they are in a sellable condition once they are returned.  True Tape will not pay for the cost of the return of the  mistaken item from the customer to True Tape, nor will True Tape pay for the shipping costs to send the replacement item/s to the customer.  When True Tape sends the wrong item by mistake, True Tape will pay for both the return of the product that True Tape sent in error and pay for the item/s that was ordered by the client and should have been originally sent.  True Tape will ship the replacement in the same manner as the original order.  For example, if the shipment was originally ordered using FedEx Ground, True Tape will use FedEx Ground to send the proper item/s.

Returns

Your satisfaction is guaranteed. We offer a 100% money-back guarantee on all non-liquid purchases (excluding shipping) returned within the first 30-days of the date shipped. A 15% re-stocking fee might be levied for returns over 30-days, depending upon product condition.  Returns for refused products in international locations must be approved in advance.  Any returns for failure to receive shipping goods on the part of the client in international locations will result in any associated shipping costs being removed from the clients anticipated refund to cover the expense by the shipper of the returned goods.  Please note that in many cases, True Tape does not receive discounted rates for returns meaning thereby that it is likely no refund for returned goods will be offered once shipping costs for the return is calculated.  This policy applies to all shippers used by True Tape.

Performance Promises or Guarantees

We do NOT “guarantee” a particular hold time for our adhesives line. Many factors can have an impact on the performance of an adhesive, including, but not limited to: wearer’s diet, application method, wearer’s activity level, ambient temperature, exposure to humidity, etc. We only offer the adhesive types that are most likely to provide the longest possible, most-secure hold. Each of our adhesive lots is certified to assure the best quality and strictest adherence to our exacting specifications. MSDS sheets for all of our products are available by request or by links in our online store.  True Tape products are not intended for use in wound care and no warranty exists, express of implied, that convey a medical benefit.
