What is a CORE Charge?

A Core deposit is required on rebuilt parts to encourage you to return your original old part so that it can be rebuilt. Core deposits on some parts are very high because they are irreplaceable - if these cores are not returned, there may no longer be any available for rebuild in the future. Cores returned for credit must be accompanied by a copy of your invoice, and it must be EXACTLY the same part as the one you received, complete and assembled, empty of fluids and reasonably clean. All cores must be free of any physical or accident damage, modifications or any other damage outside of normal wear-and-tear that may deem the core non-rebuildable. Any unacceptable core returned to Vertex will not be credited, nor will any shipping costs both inbound and outbound.

How Do I Return a Core?

Package your core using sufficient packaging material for safe transit. In many cases you can reuse the box and packaging material that your order arrived in. Please include a copy of your original sales receipt. If you cannot locate your sales receipt please call or email us to have a copy sent to you. No RMA numbers are required prior to returning your core. Ship the core back to us using a traceable and insured service such as UPS Ground or US Priority Mail to the following address:

I am interested in an item but it says it's a "Special Order" What does this mean?

When something is purchased as a "Special Order", it can mean one of several things:

1. Most commonly it means that it is not a normally stocked item and it will be ordered on your behalf. This typically takes from 4-10 days, sometimes sooner.
2. It could mean that it is a normally stocked item but VertexAuto.com is temporarily out of stock or the item is backordered from the manufacturer. Should this be the case, you will be notified either by phone or email informing you of the additional delay.

Please note, unless otherwise instructed, your entire order will be held until the arrival of your special order item.

I am interested in an item but I don't see it on your website.
