Do you really have a 100% Money-Back Guarantee?
Yes, we do, and you're right, it's not very common. We don't expect you to keep a product that didn't work for you, so we'll either refund your purchase or find a product that better suits your needs. We certainly hope you don't return the products, but if for some reason you aren't pleased or if it isn't what you expected, simply return it within 30 days of receipt in "like-new" condition and we'll refund you for the full DVD price less shipping and handling (standard shipping charges apply). Refunds are issued upon DVD receipt & completion of product return form. To see the full details go to our customer protection page.

What is the DVD Format/Region coding?
DVD formats contained on our site are NTSC format only and are coded as "All-Region". We do not carry PAL or SECAM formatting for customers outside of the U.S.; however, many non-US DVD players are dual formatted and play NTSC, so please check your manual for this feature. All DVDs for purchase on our site are formatted for "All-Region" and can be played on all DVD players in the US or abroad. If you're unsure, we'd recommend you order and if it doesn't work, we have a full 100% money-back guarantee so there's no risk to you.

Do you charge sales tax?
Because of our physical presence in Florida, orders with a shipping address within Florida will be charged 7% sales tax.

Who pays the Customs Duties or Taxes?
For Canada, UK, Australia, and all other International orders - any Customs Duties or Taxes that apply upon delivery of the order are the sole responsibility of the customer. We have no visibility into what the Customs Duties or Taxes are once they leave the U.S. and we do not pay the fees as part of our Free Shipping promotions.

What do you do with my email address?
We use your e-mail address to notify you of shipping information, for any questions we might have including follow-up emails, and to let you know about current events with our company so you can have the latest updates on the dances you want to learn. We do not sell or loan the addresses to anyone outside of our organization.
