Backorders
We want you to receive your clock as quickly as possible and we do our very best to keep an adequate on-going supply of inventory. However, many factors affect inventory levels which may unexpectedly cause a backorder situation. Here is how Simply Clocks handles backorders:
If a clock you've ordered is on backorder, we'll send you an email to let you know the estimated arrival date. You can choose to wait for the item or cancel it.
Backorders remain active for 60 days. If the clock you ordered is on backorder for greater than 60 days, your order will be cancelled. Please check back with us at a later date to reorder the item.
Simply Clocks does NOT charge your credit card unless your clock ships. If you used PayPal, your PayPal account was charged at the time you placed the order.
Once your clock comes back into stock, it will ship automatically.
If you have any questions regarding our backorder policy, or an existing order, please call our toll free number or email us at service@simplyclocks.com.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
How can you offer such low prices?
At SimplyClocks.com, you take advantage of our direct relationship with the manufacturers of these clocks. We bring you their best products via the internet, and we ship those products directly to your door. This completely eliminates the retail store, and all those costly retail "overhead" markups are gone forever!
How "up to date" are your products?
The clocks we sell are always the latest designs. We update our site with the latest products as they become available from the manufacturer. Simply Clocks strives to offer a very focused selection of the most attractive and most popular pieces. Who has time to look at 1000 different clocks?
I saw the same clock on another site. Is it the same?
If you've seen the exact same clock on another site, it will be from the same manufacturer we use. We don't mind disclosing this because we believe our pricing is the best on the web. Why pay more for a clock when you can buy the same piece cheaper at Simply Clocks?
When should I expect delivery?
All of our products leave the warehouse as soon as possible. Some as quick as 1 day, others might take as long as 5 days depending on volume at the warehouse. We make every effort to get your shipment out the door as quickly as possible. After the product leaves the warehouse, standard ground shipping times apply, which, depending on your location, and the volume being handled by the carrier, is from one to five business days.
What about expedited delivery?
2nd Day Air shipping is available to all 50 States and Puerto Rico for an additional shipping charge. If placing a multiple clock order, please be aware that, since each clock is individually boxed, each clock ordered will incur its own shipping charge. Please bear in mind that it will take one to two business days for us to ship the products from our warehouse. Please email us at service@simplyclocks.com with questions about shipping options.
What if I need warranty service?
All of our suppliers hold to the strictest standards of quality control. If by chance you receive a product which is defective, please contact us immediately so we can arrange a replacement or a warranty service. If your product is damaged in shipping, the issue can quickly be resolved by notifying UPS. If you ever have questions not answered by UPS, please contact us at service@simplyclocks.com.
How safe is my credit card information?
When you buy from SimplyClocks.com, your credit card purchase is processed in real time through the First Bank of Beverly Hills, by secure eCommerce servers run by Yahoo.com. Then your order is encrypted with PGP before being sent to SimplyClocks.com. Your card couldn't be safer!
