"I have a discount code. Where do I enter it?"
Once you have added an item to your shopping cart, scroll down the page until you find the Checkout button. Immediately below the Checkout button you will find the "Redeem a discount coupon" area. Enter your discount code here, and press Submit.

 
"Why can't I find the shoes I want to order?"
No, you're not crazy -- that style is probably not here yet. :-)

We have not yet had the opportunity to do the hundreds of hours of data-entry necessary to get into our online store the several hundred styles & colors shown in our product catalog. New styles are manually being added to our store as often as possible, but it is quite likely that the style you want isn't here yet.

If you know what style / color you wish to order, enter the style number into our Quick Search box at the top right of any page on our website. If no results are found, or of the color you want isn't among those found, simply contact us and we'll add it to the store!

 
"What is the wish list and how do I use it?"
The wish list is like your shopping cart, but it is a "holding bin" for items you are not yet ready to purchase. You must be a registered user on our website to use the wish list feature. (If you do not yet have an account, and wish to create one, please visit our account registration page.)

To add an item to your wish list, you must first be logged-in to your account on our website.


The "Add to wish list" button is located on every
product details page, below the product image.


Click on the "Add to wish list" button and the item will be added to your wish list.
Once you add an item to your wish list, it will stay there until you remove it.

Your wish list looks very similar to your shopping cart, however instead of checking out, you instead add items from your wish list directly to your shopping cart.

Think of your wish list as your personal bookmark collection for shoes you wish to purchase!

 
"How long does it take my order to ship?"
If the items you have selected are in-stock, they will usually ship within 3 to 5 business days from the time your order is placed.

If an item you order is out-of-stock we will contact you about chosing an alternate style or placing the item on backorder. Backorders generally take 8 to 12 weeks to ship, depending upon how long our vendor has been out-of-stock in that style / color / size / heel-height combination.

 
"Will you notify me when my order ships?"
Yes, when your order ships we will send you an email notice containing carrier and tracking information.  
"How can I pay by cash or check?"
Yes, if you prefer not to pay by credit card, we do accept check payments by mail. Please mail all check payments to:

Basically Ballroom
979 Golf Course Drive, #251
Rohnert Park, California 94928

For current students of the Ballroom we also accept cash payments in-person. In the notes section of the order checkout form, please indicate the class name, day, and time that you will be there, so that we can arrange for someone to collect your payment.

Orders placed online for payment by cash or check will be processed upon receipt of payment.

 
"Do you take Discover or American Express?"
Sorry, Visa and Mastercard only.  
"What is your return policy?"
If you wish to return merchandise sold by Basically Ballroom you may do so for an exchange or a refund of the original purchase price (minus shipping costs and restocking fees), subject to certain conditions.

Shoes in like-new, unworn condition, may be returned FOR EXCHANGE ONLY, must be returned to us within six (6) days of receipt by you, and are subject to a $10 restocking fee. (This restocking fee covers our costs for the return shipment of your item to our vendor's warehouse.)

Our complete Return Policy, including details on how to initiate a return / exchange request, may be found on our Return Policy page. By placing an order on our website you indicate your agreement with this return policy.

 
"Why do I only have 6 days to initiate an exchange?"
Our vendor imposes upon us a strict fourteen (14) day exchange policy that begins on the date of shipment. This "countdown" begins when your shoes leave the warehouse, and includes transit time in both directions. This leaves approximately 6 days "in the middle" for you to make a decision and to return the shoes to us if you wish to make an exchange.

By adhering to this exchange policy and not keeping any shoes in inventory we are able to keep our costs low. (Please see our Pricing FAQ for additional details on how we keep our prices low for you.)

 
"What is your privacy policy?"
We will not, at any time, sell or rent any of your personal information to any affiliate or third-party — ever.

We will not, at any time, give away your personal information except in the case of contracted service providers used for purposes of providing services relating to our business relationship with you. (Such as providing your shipping address to our vendor's warehouse.)

Please see our complete Privacy Policy and our complete Email Privacy Policy for full details on how your personal information is used by Basically Ballroom.
