Our Business Name & Credit Card Charges

Fast Tracks is owned and operated by Fast Tracks Hobbyworks Inc. Charges to your credit card for Fast Tracks products that you order from this website will show on your statement as Fast Tracks. Some credit card companies do abbreviate our name in strange ways.

Order Placement

Current Stock Quantity Additional Stock

Each item on our site will include our current quantity in stock and a lead time projection for additional stock.

The current stock quantity is continuously updated as other customers order inventory. We also update the current quantities several times each business day to reflect stock count corrections and the arrival of new inventory. The stock quantity is not guaranteed and is subject to change or correction.

The lead time projection for additional stock is based on our previous experience getting inventory from our suppliers or our typical production lead times. The lead time projection is our best estimate, is not guaranteed, and is subject to change or correction.

Postal Shipping Times

Shipping times provided on the Shipping Options page on our website are provided by Canada Post, are NOT guaranteed, and can take longer on occasion. Our experience has been that while the shipping times provided by the post office are usually fairly accurate, there will be occasions when it will take longer. If you need your order by a specific date, we recommend using a UPS Expedited or Express option instead.

Note that we cannot initiate a lost package trace with the post office until the number of business days after the ship date, as shown in the table below.
