Shipping Rates and LTL Freight Charges

Shipping and freight costs may change at any time due to changes in current shipping rates, sizes, weights, and product availability. Large bulk orders and items with heavy weight calculations and/or obscure product dimensions may have to be billed separately under such circumstances. Customer will be notified and billed separately from initial invoice for such orders at the time of service. 

Ship Method: "LTL Oversized - Billed Separately" 

Purchases made through panthereast.com may have "Ship Method: LTL Oversized - Billed Separately" listed on Order Invoices when checking out online. This occurs with heavy weighted products or items with obscure and/or large packaging dimensions. This is done to ensure that the most accurate and affordable shipping cost is presented to the customer on oversized items on any given day. LTL Oversized items are automatically billed separate from the initial order with the cheapest freight rate possible being calculated and billed for individual packages to be shipped to the customers location, which is then sent as a "Quote" to the customer to "Proceed" to checkout for the freight/shipping cost only. Most online orders with "LTL Oversized - Billed Separately" listed as the shipping method cannot be shipped or sent to the customer until this LTL Freight/Shipping charge is paid in full.
