We recommend downloading Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer to fully experience our site.
Is my information secure when it is sent through the web site?
We use industry-standard encryption technologies when transferring and receiving your personal information. On the Internet, when you see an image of the “VeriSign” logo in the footer at the bottom of any page, this indicates that the site is secured through Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).

Why do I keep getting an Empty Cart message?
If you have placed items in your shopping cart, but are receiving a message stating that your cart is empty, it may be because your browser is not set to accept cookies. To fix this, just check your browser setting and enable your cookies. For Internet Explorer this should be in the Tools Menu, under Internet Options.For Firefox this should be in the Tools Menu, under Options.
Why do I need cookies?
Our site is designed to use cookies to keep track of the items you order during your shopping session. When you’re ready to check out, all of the items are saved in your shopping cart by using cookies. If you don’t enable cookies in your browser, our site won’t remember what you’ve ordered, so your shopping cart will appear to be empty. For Internet Explorer this should be in the Tools Menu, under Internet Options. For Netscape this should be in the edit menu under preferences.
Where are all the product pictures?
Most of the items on our site have a thumbnail image linking to a detail page which shows a larger picture of the item. However because of all the different colors we carry on certain items, some products might not have all the different color combinations pictured. Additionally, some items in our Bargain Basement might not have a picture at all, because they have a low stock or discontinued item. And a few brand new items might not currently have a picture, but will have one shortly.
Are all your items listed on this web site?
At Price Point, we stock thousands of items. This site is the most comprehensive list of our product you can find. We do our best to have all of our items listed on the web site. However, on a few items, our prices are so low that our manufacturers will not let us advertise them. Additionally, some items might have just been received or quantities are too low to place them on our web site. If you don’t see an item on here that you are interested in, contact us - we might just have the product you are looking for!
How will I know if there is a problem with my order?
If there is any problem with your order one of our sales representatives will always contact you, otherwise all orders should ship the same or next business day. So please make sure you provide us with you correct phone number and e-mail address, in case we need to contact you.
How can I tell if my Internet order has been received?
You will receive an email confirmation immediately upon placing your order. This email will detail your order, update you with stock information on the items you ordered, and supply you with an order confirmation number so that you may check the status of your order on this web site.
Do you have a retail store?
In order to provide you with the fastest service and best prices, we have chosen to concentrate strictly on mail order. Given our quick turn around time you can have your order to you at no time. To serve all of our customers promptly and efficiently, we cannot accept any customer pick-ups or will calls.

>Item Search Tips
Need help searching for a product in the search box on top of every Pricepoint.com page?
If the wording or spelling you use to search for a product does not exactly match what is named in the product name, you probably won't find it. Try not narrowing your search so much, either just enter the vendor name, or product name, remove the year. In short, simpler search terms are better. One more possible reason you are not finding what you are searching for is if you are looking for an item that is no longer available on the site (it's sold out or not currently for sale). If that were the case your search would also come back with not results.
What is the best way to shop Price Point?
You are better off going into the different departments and shopping, this way if you are looking for pedals you can go into parts and shop by brand, price or type. Also always check our bargain basement section for discontinued items that are priced way bellow our cost.
Can I order catalog items online without going all the way through your site?
Yes. In search box enter the item number of an item, then press "Go" or you can do a quick order in your shopping cart. You will be prompted to enter color, size, and quantity information for your item. As an alternative, you can also search for items by entering key words into the "Quick Search" field on our home page.

>Pricing/Price Matching
Your prices are so low - are these the same products as the retail stores?
Yes, of course! We would not believe in doing business any other way. Our low prices are all due to our savvy buying and commitment to low prices. All of our products are brand new and unused. In the unlikely event you are unsatisfied by any product you purchased from Price Point, you can always return it for a refund/exchange. See our policy section for more details.
Find it for less?
Price Point will not be undersold! If you purchased an item from Price Point and surprisingly found it for less, no problem! Price Point’s low price guarantee extends a full 30 days from the date of your invoice. Let us know the name of the competitor, what they're selling it for, exact product size/color, and we will take it from there.
