Not sure on whats legal and whats not but I have to say I have ordered from sweetwater a few times in the past and they have always followed through very well on every order I placed. Even when it was just a set of mic-clips. They called my cellphone within an hour of my order being placed. They just asked if they could answer any questions about what I had purchased and that it was dispatched to their shipping department. They then shipped all of my orders free, each one was delivered within two days of order date (I do realize they have a shipping center just a state away from me).
Anyway, not going too far off topic but just wanted to let you know that they have always been my first choice in music gear only because of the support I have received from them in the past. I would be very comfortable with them helping me out if something were to go wrong with my order unlike some of the other east coast shops that I have purchased from which all gave me the run around, wrong tracking numbers, shipping dates that fell through and terrible phone support (ProAudioStar).
So worst case scenario if you do have issues with the product when it arrives I would think sweetwater would help you out no questions asked. The guy I always deal with at sweetwater is 'Dave Brow'. Super nice guy even wrote me an email after a purchase asking about my gear. Told me about the bands he has been in and such. So even though it seems a bit stressful now I think you will find sweetwater is good people!
