Information
- (our e-mail address is toys4two
@ snet.net with spaces removed if your computer isn't configured to use
the link on the top of each page)
To Order: E-mail
toys4two @ snet.net (remove spaces first) to inquire on
availability of an item, including your state and zip code or country where
you live so we can quote you the proper postal costs for the item(s) you are
inquiring about. If you inquire about an item on our website and don't
receive an answer from us after a
few days, please resend your request as we sometimes don't get all our
e-mails for one reason or another. It would help if you specify the item by
name in the subject area of your e-mail. Please do not send payment without hearing back from
us first about the availability of the item(s). Once we let you know the item is
still available you will need to confirm with another e-mail that you intend
to purchase it. Unless we hear back from you that you definitely intend
to take an item, we won't place a hold on the item and it would still be
available in the event someone else inquires about it. After you confirm that you definitely want an item, it will be held for you
for one week (10 days if you are outside U.S.). If you change your
mind after you ask us to hold an item for you, we would appreciate it if you
would let us know. If we do not receive payment or
receive an e-mail from you requesting an extension on your hold within one
week, we will place the item back up for sale. If you want more details about
a particular item listed on our website be sure to ask specific questions.
We are not experts about everything so it's possible we might overlook
describing a detail that might be important to you. We also try to point out
all flaws we see, but some items on our website we don't describe in as much
detail as others. If the description is limited, please ask.
- Postal Charges: Postage and insurance is extra for any order shipped.
Normally, all items are shipped via USPS. In order to determine how much shipping will be,
we need to have your state and zip code or your country if outside the
US before we can
quote you the proper shipping price so please include this info when
you inquire about an item. Due to the
zoning postal rates implemented by the United States Postal Service, postal
costs will vary greatly depending on how far from Connecticut the item is
being shipped. Postal rates generally start at $4.95 for any item shipped in a box
weighing a pound or less and go up from there depending on the weight of the
package and the location it is being shipped to. Small items that can
be shipped in a padded envelope generally cost $2.50-$3.50 without insurance. Insurance
for all orders is extra and recommended--$1.70 for the first $50 of insurance,
$2.15
for $51-$100 of insurance, $2.60 for $101-$200 of insurance, $4.60 for $201-$300 of
insurance, etc. If not included, orders will not be insured but will be sent
at the buyer's risk. Toys of Another Time, L.L.C. cannot be held responsible
for uninsured orders so we do recommend it. Orders in the US are shipped priority mail,
however small items mailed in a padded envelope are shipped regular first
class mail.
Fed-Ex Shipping: If
you need an item quickly, we can ship your order Fed-Ex overnight as long as
we are supplied with the recipient's Fed-Ex account number, and the Fed-Ex
shipping cost can be billed to the recipient. If your merchandise is paid for by
an instant paypal payment, we can ship your order out that same day if received
prior to last Fed-Ex pickup of the day. If payment received too late for pickup,
it will be shipped out the next Fed-Ex business day.
- Sales Tax: CT residents must
add 6% sales tax.
-
- Payment: We accept
checks, money orders, or Paypal. Payment should be made out to Toys of Another Time, L.L.C.,
and mailed to Toys of Another Time, P.O. Box 642, Shelton, CT 06484, U.S.A.
Those orders paid for by cleared paypal payment or a money order are shipped the next business day after we
receive payment (usually Monday-Friday, occasionally Saturday). Orders paid for by checks are held for the check to clear, usually 7-10
days. A $10 fee will be charged for returned checks. When sending payment please
include a note indicating what item you are ordering along with your name, e-mail address
and the address where you want your order shipped.
-
- International Orders: Orders from
outside the U.S. must be paid for by either paypal, a postal money order in U.S. dollars if
it is offered by the postal service in your country or by an international money order
in U.S. dollars drawn on a U.S. bank. If the money order does not have a
U.S. bank branch printed right on it we cannot accept it, so please check
this before sending it. We accept Paypal for International
orders so if you are interested in paying
by credit card or electronic funds you need to check to see if Paypal is
available for your country (www.paypal.com).
PLEASE DO NOT ask us to mark the customs forms as "gift" as we cannot honor
this request.
-
- Refunds: Purchases are returnable
within seven days for a refund if unsatisfied (ten days outside U.S.), but please contact us
first to inform us of the return. Once an item is returned to us in the same condition as
originally shipped, we will refund your money, minus postage and paypal
charges if applicable.
Customers without E-mail:
Occasionally, people with access to the Internet but without e-mail capability wish to
order something from our web site. If you wish to inquire about the availability of
an item by mail, you must include a self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE) for a response
back (SASE must be stamped, not metered), or a phone number that we can call you
if still available. We generally don't call if it's NOT available, but we will
drop you a note letting you know it is already sold if you have included a SASE. If the item is available,
as long as you included a telephone number we will call you and hold it for you until a specified date after
which if payment hasn't been received, we will put the item back up for sale.
