Q

Why don't you show a phone number on the site?

A

Most questions have to be looked up to answer and sometimes additional information is required. It's almost impossible to do this over the phone in a timely manner. The best way to get a question answered is to fill out our Engine Inquiry Form..  We have also, in the past, had problems with people ordering the wrong item and in an effort to not pay re-stocking charges we've had them tell us "somebody told us..."  The worst of these said incidents happened with 3 Honda 13 HP vertical engines that for some DUMB reason the customer thought were propane engines (we sell nothing but gas engines and the description on this product says it has a "Gas Tank included")  After we received 3 oil stained boxes back we decided it would be best to have everything in writing. We may occasionally give our phone number after initial contact to speed up the process, but initial contact will always be via email, in writing.

Q

My item arrived defective; what do I need to do for a replacement?

A

All items come with a manufacturer warranty.  If the item you ordered is defective please follow instructions on your warranty documentation that came with your item.  You will need to show proof of purchase for your item for the warranty to be valid.  If you need a sales receipt, and either did not get one or have lost the original please email us at sales@Smallenginesuppliers.com and we will be happy to send you one. Occasionally, through factory defects an engine may arrive with a defective part (we've had trouble with intake pipes on HM80's), in this case we will send a replacement part. 

Please do not ship defective items back to Smallenginesuppliers.com unless you have prior approval to do so.

Q

I purchased a few items from you during the same timeframe. Can you ship them together/combine shipping?

A

Currently we are unable to accommodate this request in an automated fashion.  Although if you contact us directly at customer_service@Smallenginesuppliers.com before you checkout, we can let you know if it is possible for your items to ship together and if so, a representative will issue a combined shipping quote and will revise your checkout or create a new checkout for you to pay from.  Please note that we can NOT accommodate refunds or make any changes after you have paid so please contact us prior to completing your checkout.  No exceptions.  

*When emailing for a combined shipping quote, please provide us with the following:

  • The eBay auction item numbers and brief item titles for each item you won
  • The ship to zip code
  • Your eBay ID/Alias

Q

Are credit card transactions on Smallenginesuppliers.com safe/secure?

A

Absolutely! In fact, it's statistically safer to use your credit card over the Internet than in a restaurant or department store. Smallenginesuppliers.com servers use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), an encryption technology that works with Netscape Navigator, Microsoft Internet Explorer, and AOL's browser, so that only Smallenginesuppliers.com can read a customer's personal information. Also, since we use Paypal for credit card payments, we never actually have the credit card number. A second level of safety.

Q

Do you accept international credit cards for payment?

A

No. International credit cards cannot be accepted at this time.

Q

Will you leave me feedback?

A

It is our policy to leave positive feedback AFTER you have left us feedback.  We adopted this policy as we saw merchants that received unwarranted negatives with no recourse. Note that unjustified/unwarranted negative feedback towards Smallenginesuppliers.com will receive a negative comment in return as well as a report of the incident sent to eBay.

I have a UPS or a FedEx account number, can I give that to you for shipping?

A

Sorry but no.  Our Fedex/UPS integration won't allow for changing the account number.  We sometimes ship with FedEx, but normally hand deliver them. Changing FedEx numbers would be a huge pain in those situations.
