Q:  Why is my shipment in a “used” box?
  
A:  At WhataFish.com we try to limit our carbon foot print and recycle as much as possible. This means we reuse boxes, packing material etc. when sending out your orders. Not only does this help ecologically, but it helps economically keeping our expenses lower. This translates into lower prices for your purchases!

Q:  Why didn’t I get a tracking number for my order this time?  
A:  Our goal is to keep your costs down. Our two primary shippers are the US Postal system and Fed Ex. Smaller items might get shipped First Class Mail, in this case you will not get a tracking number for your order.  All shipping confirmations and tracking numbers will be sent to the email address that you submitted when placing your order.

Q:  It says "drop ship item" at the end of the product description, what does that mean?  
A:  In some cases we are able to drop ship some items directly from the manufacturer and you may not get a tracking number for your item.  If you order multiple items, they may not arrive at the same time if they are drop ship and in stock items.  You may not receive a tracking number for your item depending on the manufacturer, but we will send a confirmation that your order has been shipped.
