If you need items that ACC does not carry as part of our regular inventory, call your Customer Service Representative and ask about our Special Order program:
We can “special order” products from the manufacturers in these two ways:
“Drop-ship” orders are products we do not carry, but are available from one of our mills. These orders will be invoiced separately. Drop-ship orders usually ship the next day. However, because we have no control over what the mill stocks or how it processes orders, please allow two or three business days for your order to ship. Drop ship orders are subject to freight charges FOB mill. Returns on these orders are subject to the mills’ guidelines and restock fees. Most mills will not accept returns unless the goods are defective.
“Remote-ship” orders are for products that we show in our catalog, but do not stock. They can be ordered like any of our “stocked” goods, but will ship from the mills’ remote locations. Freight allowances may not be offered on some of these orders, and prices in some instances may be slightly higher. These orders are subject to our own in-house rules governing returns.
For more information on our special orders, and other restrictions pertaining to individual mill’s policies, please inquire.

14. Variations from preferred payment methods.
If you choose a payment method that has not been approved for your account, your order will be delayed. Non-approved payment methods for your account are subject to review by our credit department. You will be contacted before the order is processed if there are any issues or discrepancies.
15. Choosing a preferred shipping method.
Atlantic Coast Cotton will make every effort to ship your order according to the choices selected. However, we reserve the right to change the method of shipping to expedite delivery of your order or to meet the guidelines of any shipping arrangements you have with us. Priority shipments are subject to a higher rate and must be placed prior to cutoff time.UPS ground freight only, east of the Mississippi, excluding COD fees. Points west of Mississippi receive 1/2 free freight. To get free freight over $200 on the web, the order has to be over $200 for each location. A $3.75 handling fee will be added to one order per customer per day. Subsequent orders on the same day will not be subjected to the handling fee.
16. Changing payment method at checkout.
Once you have an online account and are logged in, the inventory and prices will become available to you. The prices shown reflect your pricing structure, such as piece or case pricing. Your prices also reflect the regular or discount pricing, depending on your chosen pricing structure at the beginning of an order. Should you change your terms for an order when checking out, the appropriate charges or discounts will NOT be reflected on your online order form, but will apply to the order. Your invoice will show the corrected price. Regular price will be charged for those paying with a credit card, discount price for all other forms of payment.
In the event of a miscalculation by the web program, correct pricing will be reflected on your invoice. Online ordering has been set up as a convenience for our customers. Bugs occasionally may occur in the calculation process that would show an overcharge or undercharge to you at checkout. If this occurs, ACC will correct the total before the order ships and will charge you accordingly.
18. Calculating your total (customers on dozen or piece price).
If you are on Piece or Dozen pricing, you are eligible for discounts when placing large orders of the same SKU (same size and color of a style). Customers on Piece price get Dozen pricing for full dozens ordered, and Piece and Dozen price get Case price for full case quantities. (EX: Piece price account - order 52 items of the same SKU where there are 36 items per case. 36 will be at Case price + 12 at Dozen price + 4 at Piece price). The total price of the dozen and total price of the case are shown on the order page. To determine your cost per piece, just divide by 12 or by the case quantity listed.
19. Adding items to your cart.
In order to make your ordering process as simple as possible, we have placed all color options on a single page. Rather than making you scroll to the bottom of the page to add items to your cart, the "Add to Cart" option is available with each color. Please note that you will want to make all your selections within a style before hitting the "Add to Cart" button, because once you do, you will be taken off the page and into your cart.
20. Making changes to your account.
Any changes to your account can now be made online. This feature is available on the ACC home page under "Accounts". You must be logged in to make any changes and the changes will be effective immediately to your online account.
21. Adding users to your account.
Each account may have up to 3 authorized users. If your company requires more users, contact the site administrator at 1-800-262-5660, ext. 9-230.
If you are logged in and no activity occurs for a consecutive 30 minutes, you will automatically be logged out. If you have items in your shopping cart when your account "times out", they will be saved as cookies until 12:00 midnight and will reappear in your cart when you log back in (as long as it is prior to midnight that same day). At 12:00 midnight, your cart will be cleared.
If the available inventory shows LESS than a full case quantity, your order may contain a shortage. All orders will be shipped short unless requested otherwise. You will be notified if a shortage occurs. There is a comment field on the order form to note your preference.
