Order Process and Current Status
All of our equipment comes from China and that shipment alone takes 4-6 weeks to arrive at our Boyd warehouse. So from start to finish, it’s about a 7-9 week window from the time you place your order to having it arrive and then be shipped to you. However most excavator models and mini skid steers are in stock.
Once an order is sent out, we will post updates to the shipment as we have them, see below. When the order arrives, it typically takes 2-3 days to process the incoming freight and then we start shipping out our customers orders via RL Carrier. We will provide you with tracking numbers when this happens. Since we are In Texas, average freight costs to Ohio, California or North Carolina, is around $1300 for the RS06 mini skid steer. Our zip code is 76023 so you can check freight costs yourself by going to the freight company of your choice.
As you can see from the below, there are many steps to the process so patience is key when ordering from China.
Prices on our web site are current based on expected shipping costs and current tariffs. Due to shipping costs fluctuating weekly, your order will be finalized when the equipment is loaded onto the container ship. Prices on our web site do not include shipping to you.
If equipment is delivered inside the state of Texas, we are required to collect 8.25% sales tax unless you have an Ag exception or if the product is for resale, a valid Texas sales tax resale form.
Example order: Customer places the order on Day 1. If we have it at our location, it will ship the next business day. if your local, we could bring it the same day so long as payment is received and cleared.
if we don’t have it in stock, we go to the Port 2-3x a week to pick up equipment so it could be a two or three days. We are not like most that sell Rippa equipment. We stock machines, attachments and parts, have a store location that isn’t a house and we have an extensive checklist we go over for every machine to ensure its in proper working order. You can see this on the Support page.
