I-Store Terms and Conditions

The L.S. Starrett Company does not rent, sell or otherwise forward your name to any third party vendors. Please see our Privacy Policy for more information about your confidentiality.

When placing an order, we accept Visa or Mastercard. We do not add any credit card surcharges. Please see our Privacy Policy for more information about your credit card safety.

All orders are subject to an address verification process. Any billing address submitted that cannot be verified by a customer's financial institution may cause the order to be delayed or canceled.

The most important part of ensuring that a package will get delivered in a timely fashion to the correct address is by completely and accurately filling out the Ship-To information so it can be sent to the right address. At this time, we are unable to ship to Canada, P.O. boxes, APO addresses, international addresses or US territories.

Under normal circumstances, all orders will be shipped no later than 48 hours (2 working days) from time of placement. Please note that receipts for online orders reflect an order date based on Eastern Time.

All shipments will be made by UPS (United Parcel Service) or FedEx. Tracking information will be available via email once the shipment has been initiated. UPS will make all reasonable attempts to deliver your package to its intended recipient and will most likely require a signature at the time of delivery. The decision to leave a package at its destination without a signature is always left up to the driver's discretion.

Prices, specifications and availability of products are subject to change without notice. The prices displayed on the site at the time you submit your order electronically are valid and will not change. Promotional codes are not valid with any other special offers.

Once your order is submitted to us, we cannot change it until your merchandise is received by you. All returns of merchandise are subject to our Returns and Exchange policy.
