Receiving Orders

When a customer places an order for one of your handmade crafts, it will be processed though the Craft Show Connection Online Craft Show.  We will check the order for correct payment and will collect any applicable sales taxes.  You will then be notified of the purchase via the email address you have specified in your profile.  We do require that you notify us immediately after receiving the order, letting us know you are aware of it and are in the process of getting it ready to ship.

Shipping Items To The Customer

Craft Show Connection requires the ordered product(s) be shipped via the stated shipping method within 7 business days of the order date.  If the item is not shipped within the stated time, the order may be cancelled.  If you know in advance that the item can not be shipped within 7 days, this must be stated in the product description, letting the customer know that there is an extended shipping time.  The customers shipping information will be supplied to you via the order notification email.

Tracking/Confirmation Number

You will be required to contact Craft Show Connection within 24 hours of shipment with a shipping carrier, shipment date and tracking number.  A tracking or confirmation number is strongly recommended.  In the event of a shipping/delivery dispute, if no tracking/confirmation number is available to prove delivery and/or to help in locating the package, the exhibitor forfeits their payment.

Your Payment

On the 1st and the 15^th day of each month, you will receive payment for your sales made the previous month, minus a 15% commission.  You may choose between two payment methods to collect your payment:  1.) Craft Show Connection will electronically send your payment to you via PayPal, at no charge.  2.) Craft Show Connection will issue you a physical check, for a 75 cent processing charge.

As an exhibitor, you are NOT an employee of Craft Show Connection, therefore we will not withhold federal and state income taxes from your payments.  You are responsible for reporting and paying your federal and state income tax.
