4. Questions?

You can always order each item separately and then let us know if you want them combined into one shipment, if possible and we'll do that and refund any exccess postage. But you need to tell us since some customers like to have things shipped separately as there are a few advantages. For example if you order 3 items, if we ship together we'll need to wait until all 3 items are ready to ship before we can send anything. Also, for international customers, if you had 4 orders for $50/ea. and shipped them separately, there may be no customs fees due since the value is below the minimum assessment value, while a single order of $200 might be assessed taxes and fees. So please let us know your preferences for shipping multiple item orders.

Ordering/payment options below:

• Whatever ordering option you use, please be sure to DOUBLE CHECK YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS prior to submitting the order.
  • Orders will be shipped to the address you specify, if that address is incorrect, your order may be delayed
  • Returned orders will be reshipped at your expense.
  • We'll try to correct the address if you send it to us, but we do get SO MANY orders with incorrect addresses it is hard to keep track of which is which, so your best shot is to give us your correct address to begin with.
  • The let 3 Buy Now buttons below automatically add postage and applicable sales tax to the parts total
  • The far right Buy Now button adds no postage, so be sure to include postage in your order total

• Oldskool Forum and Military Discount:
  • Missing LiknZ is now offering a 10% discount program for all our products for members of any on-line web forum (vwvortex.com, vwdieselparts.com, ClubGTI.com, DCIforum.com, etc. or anyone in active military duty.
  • Since our normal on-line ordering system can't handle this discount, in order to take advantage of the discount, you must write up the parts you want to order on the discount order form (or use the discount on-line order form below) total up the parts and subtract 10% (or multiply by 0.9 if that works better for you) and add applicable sales tax (for California orders) and shipping (as noted above - shipping cost not discounted) and add your affiliation information (forum and user name or military branch), e-mail and postal addresses (where you want the parts shipped to) and mail that along with a money order or certified check as noted above.
    • Personal checks (US funds only) will be acceptable for forum discounts, although we will make sure the checks clear prior to starting the order and if the check bounces, we'll send the check to collections and will also publicize the information.
  • For example, if the parts you want total $100.00, the discounted price is $90.00, shipping would be $8.00 in the US, for a total of $98.00.
    • Only mailed in (a.k.a. envelope and stamp), will-call orders, or the special on-line orders (below), will be afforded the discount, at this time. No exceptions (except the on-line discount method described below).
    • To qualify forum discounts, we reserve the right to log into the specified forum and search for at least one post by the user name supplied and also to browse that user's profile and check that the location and vehicle information are present and correspond to the order. We feel that this information should be filled out by all forum users so that others can know where you are and what you drive, in case you forget to put that information in some future post asking for help or information.
  • Feel free to drop us an e-mail to let us know to expect your order.
  • If you run a shop or retail outlet and would like to take advantage of this discount, no problem, just add your business name in place of the forum information.
    • And if you run a business in California and would like to resell our products, download and submit a copy of a California Resale Certificate to us by mail, e-mail or fax (see above for contact information).
  • For on-line orders, contact us for the on-line discount form.
    • If the above e-mail link doesn't work for you, send an e-mail to: Sales@MissingLinkZ.com and ask for the on-line order discount form.
  • Only one discount of 10% applies at this time, there are no multiple discounts for multiple affiliations.
  • Again, you MUST follow the instructions given on one of the above order forms to the letter.
    • Any deviation will result in no discount for your order and we'll either bill you for the difference or cancel the order (so you can re-submit it) as you prefer.
  • You can't make use of any of the "Buy Now" buttons or order links on the web site to take advantage of this forum discount.
    • We can't send you an invoice to qualify for this discount.
  • Bottom line is if you want to make use of the discount ordering process, either follow the above steps or contact us for other options BEFORE you place an order on the web site, not AFTER!
  • Sorry but that is the way it is.

Returns/Exchanges Policy:

• Exchanges:
  • If an exchange is desired, please include a note as to what exchange part you want and include return postage for that part to be sent back to you.
    • Return postage will be be as noted above, typically what the original item shipping was.
  • If you are in a rush to get the exchanged part, place an order for the new part and we'll ship that to you right away. Then return the old part, and upon receipt, we'll issue a refund against the new order.
• Parts may be returned for a refund within 60 days of original purchase.
  • No need to obtain an RMA number or anything like that.
  • A 10% restocking fee will be deducted from original purchase price less outgoing shipping.
    • Parts must be in new and unused condition for the refund.
      • Used or blemished parts can yield partial refunds at the discretion of Visual Diagnostics/Missing LinkZ.
      • Parts that have been modified by the customer or that have been built to unique customer specifications are generally not refundable.
      • Returned items with missing components will have the refund adjusted for the cost of the missing items (e.g. missing nuts or bolts, etc.)
    • The customer is responsible for return shipping charges.
    • Returned parts must include a copy of the original invoice or packing slip for proper credit.
    • It is highly recommended that a package tracking number be obtained from the shipper and that that number be transmitted to Missing LinkZ so that we are aware that you have sent an item back and that we can track it, know when it arrives and can pick it up at our PO box.
      • If you use the USPS.COM on-line shipping label system, you can get the delivery/tracking number at no additional cost and you can simply enter our e-mail address (sales@4crawler.com) in the recipient field and we'll automatically be sent that information.
      • If you don't have a tracking numer, at least send us an e-mail noting when and how you shipped the package so we can keep an eye out for it to arrive.
  • One exception to this policy is in the case that the parts do not fit properly, per the installation instructions.
    • The returned part(s) must be accompanied by photos or a detailed description of the fitment issue.
    • In such a case Missing LinkZ will refund the full purchase price less shipping. And as noted, please furnish a detailed description of the fitment issue reported, including dimensions, so that this fitment issue may be corrected for future orders.
  • Items returned 60 days or more past the purchase date will be refunded less any applicable transaction fees, typically 4% - 5%.
    • This time is from the date of purchase until we get our hands on the returned item(s) so we can inspect them for missing parts or damage, so be sure to allow enough time if planning to return an item for a refund.

  • Visual Diagnostics / Missing LinkZ , attn: Roger Brown
