Q) WHAT IS A PRE-SALE
?
A Pre-Sale is a buy in advance order type that allows for a small-business to create a supply exactly that to the demand. All products are made after the pre-sale is over and shipped or made available for pickup at a referenced time.
Q) CAN I TRUST HOMETOWN 803 TO DELIVER?
A) Yes, you can. Hometown 803 has managed dozens of PRE-SALES and never once missed a commitment. We work with more than 25 different schools, The Big Red Barn and now with Irmo Fire District and have donated over $10,000 dollars in the short time we have existed (less than three years).
Q) HOW DO I KNOW THE DONATION IS LEGITIMATE?
Hometown 803 will donate $3.00 back to GCA for full price, non discounted item sold. There will not be donations for the staff sale since the price is discounted. You can call the school to verify the relationship and donation is legit.
Q) ARE THERE RETURNS OR EXCHANGES?
A) Because of the donation we make, all sales are final. However, if there happens to be a defect or quality issue we will gladly replace the item. In less than 3 years and over 20,000 hats sold, we have had one return for a quality issue.
Q) ARE YOUR PRODUCTS MADE LOCALLY?
A) Hats are designed, embroidered and sewn (patches) in Columbia, SC. Same for screen printing. It is all done in our production center in Columbia, SC. We only use and contract with residents of South Carolina for production processes.
Q) WHEN WILL I GET MY ORDER
A) Orders will ship out or be available for store pickup between the Week of Oct 21-Oct 25. We are always under promise and over deliver.
Q) CAN I ORDER IN STORE WITH A REAL PERSON?
