If the tax-exempt form is received more than 30 days past the order date, we may not be able to credit the sales tax paid on an order, and you will need to request a refund from your State Department of Taxation and Finance.

Why is there a $40 order minimum on website orders?

In May of 2018 - our team faced two options. Raise the prices across the board - due to the increased costs of processing the massive amount of very small orders we were receiving or implement an order minimum online.

Instead of raising prices on each item, we instilled a $40 dollar order minimum on all online purchases in an effort to keep many of the other benefit programs we offer running current and also to keep prices stable and competitive.

These benefits include FREE SHIPPING on ground orders over $99, promotional coupon codes, BFO bucks rewards program, as well as offering the lowest cost shipping rates that we can, on all non-ground, LTL freight and expedited orders.

Can I Order from BFO without an account?

You do not need an account to order from us. You can order using guest checkout.

When Will My Order Be Billed to My Credit Card?

A. Items are billed to your credit card when the order is processed. Once the credit card charges are applied and the credit card has not been declined - we will release the order to the warehouse for shipping.

What Do I Do If I Receive Damaged Goods / Missing Goods?

A. We would rather this never happened, but if it does, call our Customer Service Department at 1-800-869-810 or email us at bfo@qmctechnologies.com. We will correct the situation by sending you a new item or processing a refund and we’ll give you all of the info you need to return the damaged item at our expense. Claims for discrepancies in shipment must be made within 7 days of receipt of merchandise or they will not be accepted.

My order has been flagged for fraud check, what does this mean?

A. Due to high volumes of fraudulent purchases on the internet, we want to make sure we are taking the steps to protect our customers as well as our company.

We use a company called Braintree, which reviews all orders that come through our system. If your order is flagged, it means some of the information on your order is suspicious, or that your profile matches that of a similar fraud order we've previously seen. In most cases, the system might flag your order if you are using a credit card that has a different billing address than your shipping address, or if the name on either is different than the billing details of your credit card. Our team hopes you can understand why we practice caution and double check that these order details are correct!

Our e-mail system and our fraud partner's system is encrypted, which means your information is safe when you send it to us.

To proceed with your order we do have to verify your information.

Please send us an email to bfo@qmctechnologies.com that includes one or both of these documents along with your order number:

1. Proper identification that matches the billing information with proof of address (a driver's license or government issued ID)
2. Copy of credit card statement that reflects your purchase

Once a member of the team has assisted you, we will get a response within 48 hours. After which your order will automatically proceed to processing (if approved), or cancelled (if not approved).
