4) QUESTION: Can I place an order if I am outside of the continental USA?

ANSWER: Yes, but you must do so over the telephone by calling (818) 772-0500 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you are outside of the continental US and place your order online, our shopping cart will not calculate shipping, and we will need you to authorize shipping costs to your location BEFORE processing your order, so it is easier for you to Call in or Fax in your order. If you are located outside of the USA (Canada, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Mexico, etc.), you must place your order over the telephone only at this time as our shopping cart will be unable to process your order.

7) QUESTION: Are your products UL, ETL, CSA, Energy Star and/or DLC Listed?

ANSWER: Over 95% of our Indoor and Commercial Lighting products are either UL/C-UL Listed, ETL/C-ETL Listed, CSA Approved or all of the above. Most of our outdoor lighting is UL/ETL Listed, but some are not. This does not mean that these products are “unsafe”, we simply have not had them tested UL or ETL. However, all sockets and wire used in our outdoor products are UL/ETL Listed! If you have any questions on any of our products, please do not hesitate to call us at (877) 762-2515 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

8) QUESTION: Why are your prices so low and how is your quality?

ANSWER: We eliminate the “middle man” and offer the general public factory direct prices. This does not mean we cut corners on quality to offer you such unbeatable prices. In fact, our products are as good, if not better than the same products sold by our competitors for much more. We manufacture most of our outdoor Solid Brass and Copper Lighting Here, and what we do not manufacture our purchasing power allows us to stock large quantities of products, allowing us to not only keep good stock, but give you the best prices around! We guarantee you will NOT be disappointed!

9) QUESTION: Where can I find a distributors of your lighting? (Hint: We are the distributor!)

ANSWER: If you’re looking for our product and specifying for a job, the worst mistake you can make is to go to your local distributor when you can qualify for the discount yourself! Why let someone else make money on your job when you can pocket that money yourself? Basically what we’re telling you is discounts are given through quantity, not title, meaning you will get the same price as any distributor, contractor or professional based on your product, overall job size and quantities. So why make others richer if you can save money yourself? This should make it much easier for you to plan your budget, assess lead times, and save time shopping! It also helps us process orders faster since we do not have to deal with so many distributors for no reason at all as you are buying direct. The paragraph below applies to everyone.

GREAT NEWS! As of January 4, 2011, You no longer have to go through any distributors to buy our products. Now you can buy directly from us for LESS than what THEY were paying for our product! Buy direct from us for 30% less than you would from a local distributor! We have taken out the middle man and are selling DIRECT to the public! We don’t hire “outside reps” or sell to retail showrooms, instead we well directly to YOU, the consumer, and ship nationwide! This saves you, the consumer a LOT of money. And lastly, if you have any issues with your order you can speak directly to the source instead of dealing with an outside rep or showroom who is less knowledgeable than we are. Deal with the source, not the middle man!

10) QUESTION: What about warranties?

ANSWER: We offer factory warranties typically from a 1 year warranty up to a Lifetime Warranty from the date of delivery depending on the product offered (except for any Incandescent, Halogen, Xenon, CFL, HPS or MH bulbs, which we guarantee for 30 days). Most if not all of our products have the warranties specified in the product description. We stand behind what we sell!
