Yes, we will ship via U.S.P.S. There is a $5 handling fee added to your order for this service. We ship Priority Mail unless you request overnight service. You may request U.S.P.S in the comments section or if you put a P.O. Box in the "Confirm Shipping Address" page while checking out. If you request us to ship to the U. S. Protectorates, Hawaii or Alaska we will automatically ship via U.S.P.S. Priority Mail with a $5 handling fee. SECURITY Why do you only ship to the name and address that the credit card bill is mailed to or a name or address that the credit card company recognizes as a confirmed? These types of security measures are unfortunately necessary in an online environment, where it is difficult to check someone's identity. In the physical world, sellers can check someone's credit card and driver's license. In the online world, where simple and effective identification tools do not yet exist, we have to take different precautions. We believe that these safety precautions are in the interest of all our customers. Your shopping with Beachboutique.com has been made safe through the use of SSL on our online server. To take advantage of secure shopping, you must have an SSL compatible browser such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer. You can order on-line using our secure server, or by calling 843-837-7439. RETURN POLICY Beachboutique.com strives for 100% satisfaction with our internet customers.

You will also be notified within 2-3 business days of placing your order with the current delivery status. We reserve the right to ship up to 6 weeks beyond the original anticipated delivery date.

We will then contact FLAX to obtain the item requested and get an expected delivery date. You will be e-mailed with this information.

As always, after you receive the item, if there is a problem, it is exchangeable for size or color based on availability. We will also issue Online Gift Certificates. We will not be issuing credit on credit cards or PayPal for any special orders. * Please note: If you are returning or canceling a Wish List, Pre-Order or Trunk Show item, we do not issue credits on credit cards. Only exchanges and Online Gift Certificates are allowed. ONLINE SALES No item is “guaranteed” to be in-stock at the time of purchase. This is due to a limitation in our system (i.e. Item may be sold in the store or if you and another customer are shopping simultaneously for the same item/s. Quantities adjust online only after an order is finalized and completed. Our system does not notify you of the previous sale.) Currently, there is no way to inform you that the item has now been sold. All notifications of sold out items will come directly from the office -- usually after shipping -- as an amendment to the “auto” notice to your purchase. Thankfully, it does not occur often. Twice a year, Beachboutique.com has 50% off sales. Due to the volume of orders we typically receive during these sales, it is physically impossible for us to notify our customers of sold out items. We will make any adjustments including recalculating shipping costs and make notes on the receipts you receive. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. PRIVACY POLICY When you place your first order at Beachboutique.com, you will be automatically signed up for our weekly FLAX newsletter. You will begin to receive advance notification of sales, special Trunk Shows as well as coupons throughout the year. To ensure continued receipt of our newsletters, you may also want to add our e-mail addresses: patricias@jangomail.com or akapatricia@hargray.com to your address book and configure your spam filter rules, if you use them. If you would like to be removed from this mailing list, there is a link to unsubscribe. This page is subject to change without notice.
