ORDERING
INFORMATION: Ordering from me is as easy
as ABC :)
To place an order just add the item/s you are interested
in to the cart and when you have finished shopping
click on the checkout button. You will then be able
to modify the quantities and/or remove the items.
After that fill in the form and place your order,
no immediate payment required. In a few minutes
you will automatically receive an email with your
order for your future reference. As
soon as your order is processed (it usually takes
a few hours, very rarely it takes up to two business
days) you will get another email with the confirmation
of the availability of what you are interested in,
the grand total including shipping
and payment details.
I will send you another email when I get your payment
to tell you the exact shipping date.
Please note that I ALWAYS reply to all orders and
emails. I usually reply the same day, seldom in
two days, if you do not hear from me in three days
then please try the following:
- use another mailbox and/or
- check your spam/trash filters (please whitelist
toys@tons-of-toys.com) and/or
- resend your e-mail and I'll reply with an alternate
e-mail address and/or
- call me at (international prefix 0039) 349 288
2556. This is my mobile phone and it will be on
from 10 am to 7 pm (Mon-Fri) Italy time.
PAYMENT
INFO:
The prices on my website are in Euro and in United
States Dollars. All prices are final (only shipping
and handling is extra, see below). Prices can be
changed without notice and the prices in USD might
change quite often due to currency conversion EUR/USD
rates, but I will always stick to the price of the
day you placed your order.
Regarding payment I accept (in order of preference):
| From the European Union countries |
From the USA and all the other
countries |
- bank wire transfers
- paypal funds through paypal.com
- credit card through paypal.com
- Western Union money transfers
- cash (USD or EURO or GBP)
|
- paypal funds through
paypal.com
- credit / debit card through paypal.com
- Western Union money transfers
- cash (USD or EURO or GBP) |
Due to scams (bounced / fake checks) and high fees
for cashing them, money orders and cashier's checks
are not accepted any more, sorry.
As you can see I DO NOT accept credit cards directly,
but if you have one and you live in one of these
COUNTRIES,
then paypal is the quickest, easiest, safest and cheapest
(no extra fees for the buyer) means to send payment
through credit card. You do not even have to have
an account, I will send you a paypal invoice and you
will be able to send your payment in a few minutes,
then paypal will charge your credit or debit card
or bank account.
If you already have a paypal account, just let me
know your paypal e-mail address and if you are going
to pay using funds that are already in your paypal
account or are transferred from your bank account
(for you it is the same but I will save on fees ;)
or using your credit or debit card through paypal,
then I'll send you a paypal money request. I'll send
your package in 3 days (except holidays and week-ends)
after receiving your payment.
Please note: for large orders, if you pay using paypal,
I will only ship to the verified address you have
in your paypal account and I will use an online trackable
shipping method.
Payment (or proof of payment in case of bank wire
transfers) must be received in 1 week!
SHIPPING
INFO: I am in Italy and all the packages are
shipped from here after having received the payment
(no COD). Shipping & handling is extra. To order
more than one item at the same time is always more
convenient, as shipping rates do not change within
a specific weight. The below shipping methods are
the ones I use, but please note: if you have your
own courier account (Fedex, DHL or others) and you
pay the full shipping charge, you can have your package
picked up here and delivered to you. Absolutely no
problem for me!

Although there is no minimum purchase required,
I discourage very small purchases from overseas
due to shipping cost.
Surface/air mail: safe, even if it is supposed
to be slow, it nearly always is delivered in
about 2 weeks to the above countries. Very very
rarely it takes longer, up to about 6 weeks.
Express courier (paccocelere internazionale):
very safe, fully insurable, trackable online,
it usualy is delivered in less than a week.

Regarding the shipping rates for the other countries
I will check them when you place your order as they
vary depending on the destination country and the
shipping method you choose.
All the orders are always shipped within three business
days after having received the payment, and quite
often orders are shipped the same business day.
Regarding packaging I know that each and every order
must be packaged carefully. If necessary, items will
be double boxed. I will always strive to over protect
your package, never under protect it. Please be assured
that:
- I always take the utmost care in packaging
- I always protect the items with crushed paper or
styrofoam or plastic bubbles
- I always put the toy(s) in a sturdy cardboard box
- I always send the item(s) using the agreed shipping
method, and so, just like all other merchants, I am
not responsibile for loss or damage during transportation
(luckly this does not happen very often ;-)
SATISFACTION
GUARANTEED: Since my business is mainly built
on repeat sales to my customers, I want you to be
happy with your purchase. If you are not, you can
e-mail me as soon as you receive the package and return
the item(s) to me. You'll be fully refunded except
for shipping charges!
