general comments
At Creation Engine, we actively replenish our inventory by placing orders with distributors and manufacturers every business day. This ensures that most popular products we offer remain in stock and are ready to ship immediately. This also enables us to order special order products immediately within one working day when a customer places an order for special order products.

For shipments within the United States, if some products in your order are in stock, but some are backordered, Creation Engine will ship the in-stock products immediately. As your backordered products arrive in stock, we will ship them immediately and pay the shipping fees for all backorder deliveries. For international orders, Creation Engine ships orders only after all products are in stock and ready to ship.
