• Valid Shipping Address Required
Please be very careful to provide a full, complete and accurate shipping address for your package,
when making your PayPal payment.
The most common errors are neglecting to provide a company name (so that a shipment
cannot be directed to the right company in a large building with many tenants)
or neglecting to provide secondary addresses such as suite numbers, apartment
numbers or other details required for delivery if more than one person or
company is located at a given address. Some customers provide shipping
addresses using out-of-date shipping addresses, or are ordering for someone else
at a different location and use an incorrect address. If the shipping
address is incorrect, your package cannot be delivered and you may incur the
cost of a repeat shipment.
• Minimum Order
Minimum Order is $10.00, not including shipping.
• Payment Accepted
I only accept PayPal for payment.
Our shipping system is tied directly to PayPal, which provides the shipping address for package labeling.
• Package Preparation
My goal is to pack all orders within 5 days of receipt, but if order volume is high, it may take a little longer.
Orders are processed daily, and shipped on weekdays.
If we encounter any problems processing or shipping your order you will be contacted.
• Packing Methods
Brickarms are very light, and packages are shipped in small padded bubble mailers (for US orders)
, or USPS provided packaging for Priority Mail shipments (for US Priority, Express, and International orders).
• Shipping Options
It is the customer's responsibility to choose a valid shipping option.
Shipping options to US addresses are not available to international addresses.
If a US shipping option is selected in the shopping cart, but an international
address is given with your payment at PayPal, and additional fee may be incurred.
Puerto Rico and other US Territories may use Priority Mail if desired,
although shipping will be slower that the 2-3 day service on the mainland.
• US & US Territories
• 1st Class Mail with Delivery Confirmation (2-5 days)
This is the lowest cost way to deliver Brickarms to US addresses. Most customers
report being very pleased with 1st Class Mail with tracking.
• Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation (2-3 days)
Priority Mail is a service of the US Postal Service. It delivers
packages to addresses in the mainland US, Alaska and Hawaii within 2 or
3 days on average. PO Box addresses are acceptable. I think it is overkill,
since I've found that 1st Class mail with delivery confirmation provides the same level of
service at the same speed. I include it just in case you live in an area where
you
know Priority Mail is best for you. In most cases it is
double
the cost of 1st Class Mail.
• International Addresses
• Priority Mail International with Delivery Confirmation (7-10 days, usually)
Joint service of US Postal and destination country postal authorities.
Average delivery in 8 business days or less to most developed countries,
with widely varying delivery times in some countries or in regions away from major cities.
Not trackable during transit and not guaranteed. Priority Mail International is a good value
for Western Europe, Canada, Australia, Japan, Singapore and other "first
world" countries.
• Express Mail International with Delivery Confirmation (3-5 days, usually)
This is the fastest international shipping we offer. Average delivery in 5 business days or less to most developed countries,
with widely varying delivery times in some countries or in regions away from major cities.
Fully trackable during transit and not guaranteed.
Service to all countries is estimated, not guaranteed. Although we have found Priority
Mail International to be reliable, no one can prevent Customs from delaying a
particular shipment. The customer bears all risk and costs of dealing with local
Customs authorities.
• Tracking
All shipped items will have tracking numbers.
NOTE: This tracking number can be used to check the status
of your package at USPS. My local Post Office does not always record the origination event,
but they always seem to update the tracking record upon delivery. So, if you go the USPS site to
track your package, and it does not seem to be there, this is the reason why. Don't ask me why they
do what they do - I have no idea!
• Valid Email Address Required
It is the customer's responsibility to provide a
valid email address when ordering via BrickArms.com This email address
is used to send the order confirmation and tracking emails shipping notification when the product
ships. If you do not receive your order confirmation email, check to make
sure you provided a valid email address to PayPal that is free of typographic errors, that
is actually working and that your mail system or your ISP's mail system is not
filtering out emails from brickarms.com as spam or other unwanted email.
• Shipment Days
Orders received before noon Pacific Time, excluding holidays
or four-day weekend Fridays, will normally be procssed within 7 business days.
• Risk of Loss
Customers bears all risk of loss when for packages shipped. The charge for replacement
packages will be the full cost of the items and postage.
• Customs Fees and Taxes
International customers agrees to pay all customs charges and taxes.
Any parcel sent by Priority Mail International for which such fees are not paid will be
abandoned.
• Customs Delays
All international delivery times are approximate, assuming there is no delay in Customs.
If Customs intercepts a package it is not possible to predict how long the package will be
delayed.
