  • How do I locate products I am looking for?
    • We provide the most flexible Search capabilities in the industry. With over 25 years experience in dealing with customers we know what a customer requires in order to locate a product. You can search by SKU by entering any part of a product number. We will respond with any/all products that meet your selection criteria. In almost all cases, these equivalent items are the same in form, fit and function as the one you searched for and will most likely be at a substantially lower price. We always provide a Search box located near the navigation menu on right side of your screen. Simply enter anything you want and we will respond with all products that meet your selection criteria. The system has most products identified by keywords and we search those keywords as well as all of the information associated with a product that relates to your selection criteria. We suggest that when you do not know the entire product number that you enter whatever information you do have.
  • I've used the search feature, but I still can't find what I want. What should I do?
    • If you have this much difficulty in locating the product you require, we just may not carry it online. However, we can almost certainly order any item(s) you are looking for. Please contact us by clicking here and we will attempt to assist you.
  • What happens if I order an out-of-stock item?
    • When your delivery arrives, any items out-of-stock will be noted on your printed invoice. We will deliver these items as soon as we receive them. If you do not want us to deliver the out-of-stock items please contact us and inform customer service to cancel the backorder.
  • Do you charge sales tax?
    • Because Internet vendors are required to collect sales tax in any state where they have a physical presence, we must charge sales tax in those jurisdictions. Sales tax does not currently display as part of the order total on your online receipt. Our online ordering software may have this capability in the future.
  • Why do I have to enter my P.O. # when ordering online?
    • Purchase order requirements are set by your company, not by Roaster Joe's. If you do not use purchase orders, you will not receive an alert. Purchase Order numbers can be entered in the Purchase Order Number Field when checking out. For companies that require a PO number when placing an order, you will be alerted in the checkout process that one is required to complete the order.
  • How can I change my online Shipping Information?
    • To ensure the security of our customers, at the time of checkout, Roaster Joe's makes available only those shipping locations that have been approved by your company over the phone or via email with us. If you would like to add a shipping location, simply fill out required shipping information. Roaster Joe's will verify that the shipping address is valid and add it into our system, so next time you log into our website to shop, you should see your new location. If you currently only have one shipping location, we will populate the checkout information by default. If for some reason you do not see a shipping location you have, please contact us and we will assist you.
  • Can I cancel an order after it has been submitted?
