Q - "How much is shipping?" or
"What is the total cost of the scooter?"
A - The total shipping cost is shown on every single items's web page,
just below the "add to shopping cart" button. [READ SHIPPING COSTS TO
CUSTOMER] We ship anywhere in the continental United States for the
same price. This is direct to your door; don't be fooled by scooter
stores that say "free shipping" but ship to a terminal miles away from
your house. Our shipping costs INCLUDE all residential shippings fees
and, in the case of motor scooters, a lift gate.
TOTAL COST = ITEM COST + SHIPPING COST.
That's it, no hidden fees or other charges.
Q - "What is your
warranty/return policy?"
A - Our warranty is the manufacturer's warreanty; 30 days parts. This
means we will pay for any parts needed to fix the scooter during the
warranty period. Due to the high cost of shipping, we (like all online
scooter stores) do no accept returns and thre are no refunds, except in
the rare case of a provable manufacturer's defect. For more on our
warranty, please go to our warranty page on the web site- it is the
button on the left side that says "Warranty & Shipping" Note we
will not accept any returns based on unsatisfactory legal status.
Q - How long will it take the
scooter to ship?
A - While we cannot gaurentee a scoter will arrive by a certain date,
especially during the holidays, normal shipping time is 2-5 business
days (5-10 business days for motor scooters.)
Q - When will the scooter I
ordered ship/arrive?
A - Your order will be sent to the warehouse immediately (except if
paying by check, on check orders we wait 10 days for the check to
clear.) As soon as the order ships, the warehouse will email us a
tracking number that we will sand along to you so you may track your
order/coordinate receipt of the scooter.
Q - Is it legal to ride my
scooter in the street?
A - It is the customer's reponsibility to check with their local DMV as
laws vary state to state. Most small scooters may be ridden on
sidewalks, most larger (motor scooters) may be rideen in the street,
and usually scooters that are 50cc or less do no require a license. All
our scooters are DOT and EPA certified. Note we will not accept any
returns based on unsatisfactory legal status. Generally all electric
scooters are legal and do not reuire any licence (like a bicycle.) Gas
scooters are usually considered mopeds. Again, the GO! Store makes no
claim about the legality of any item since we ship to all states and
all states have different laws.
Q - There is no manual, how do
I assemble the scooter?
A - Most items have a link to an online version of their manual on the
item's web page. If not, they can refer to the manual under "Scooter
Maintenance" on our website.

CUSTOMERS HOW TO DO THIS! It's just for you to do if someone seems
"on-the-fence" about buying. Tell them you can give them a 10% discount
if they buy NOW, on the phone.
