PRODUCT AVAILABILITY: We recommend contacting us prior to any order to make sure that your desired item is in stock. Not all items shown on our website are in stock and available for immediate shipment. On each item, an estimated delivery date is shown based on the shipping method chosen. Please note that this date is based on if the item is in stock. Stock items will typically ship within 1-2 business days. Non-stock items may be subject to an order minimum from the respective manufacturer. If this is the case, Southern Electronics will do our best to fulfill the order without any additional charges. However, there many be circumstances where a buyer will be required to meet a certain order minimum amount or pay an additional fee. Once a non-stock item is purchased, Southern Electronics will update the buyer on the status of the order. Please keep in mind that some items may be available in a few days while others may take a few weeks.
Before placing an order, we recommenced contacting our sales department via phone or email for item availability. If you place the order before checking availability, be sure to note that the item may not be in stock with our warehouse ord may be shipped directly from the manufacturer. If the item is to be drop-shipped, there is a 1-2 business day order processing time with the manufacturer.
Once a product is shipped, the shipping method you selected during the check-out process should determine the product's arrival date.
If we are not able to fulfill an order, we will message the customer as soon as possible. If we do not have a response from the customer within 3 business days, the order will be cancelled and a refund will be sent.
If an item is needed by a specified date, we recommend contacting us prior to purchase to ensure that the delivery date is possible. Also, we recommend using the comment section on the checkout page to advise us if products are needed by a certain date. We will attempt to fulfill all requests on our own, but if any additional information is needed or charges occur, we will reach out to the customer.
ORDER PROCESS: Please allow 2 business days for all orders to be processed. As soon as an order is placed, the order process begins on our end. If you would like an accurate time frame of how long the order will take to process, we recommend contacting our sales department before placing an order. Once the item is shipped, you will be notified and your order status on your account will change to "Shipped". The "Quote Request" feature is also another great tool to use in order to get a response from our sales team regarding specific products, delivery estimates, and any applicable shipping fees. All orders are subject to review and can be declined for any reason. These reasons can be as follows: order minimums, long lead times, discontinued products, fraudulent attempts, etc.

Each brand and manufacturer have various regulations regarding order minimums, shipment locations, and air orders. Please note that if there is an order below minimum, we will attempt to fulfill it, but there may be longer handling times.
