Pricing
NEI provides prices either in our on-line catalog or by a response to a request for quote. A small number of items in our catalog may be mispriced, often from the manufacturer. If an item's updated price is higher than our catalog price, we will contact you prior to shipping for your authorization to ship and bill at the corrected price.
Shipping and Handling Charges
NEI provides estimated shipping charges on all quotes. We do our best to be as accurate as possible. Final shipping costs are adjusted at time of shipment processing and include shipping insurance by default.
Packaging and Marking
All shipments are packed to ensure the safe arrival to its destination. All parts are marked with order information and vehicle information when for a specific work order or repair order.
Core Charges and Core Returns
Some of the parts we provide are rebuilt or remanufactured items with a core charge. In addition to the cost of the part, a core price is established to encourage the return of the old part being replaced which is remanufactured. When you see a core charge, it is the actual charge from the rebuilder or remanufacturer. All items that have a core charge are marked with core stickers. If you want to return a core for credit, please return as soon as possible. The core return deadline varies from remanufacturer to remanufacturer (30 to 90 days).
Also, please note the following:
- Return item in the original box of the remanufactured item you received. For instances of large items such as engines, transmissions and transfer cases simply return either in the provided molded case or by way of your own packaging when molded cases are not provided.
- Please drain all fluids when applicable.
- Shipping charges for core returns are the responsibility of the customer and are non-refundable.
- All cores are subject to inspection for any deductible values which typically apply to engines, transmission, and rear end differentials.
