Our warehouse team makes every effort to pack and ship your order as soon as possible. For questions, please visit our FAQs or email us at: office@toyshnip.com
Rates
We use calculated shipping (instead of “free” shipping that is added to the price of the item) to allow customers from all over the world to enjoy our products at the best prices. Rates are based on weight, destination and service. Weight includes the weight of the product(s) and packaging materials. There are a variety of options for carriers (USPS, UPS, etc.) and services (Standard, Express, etc.) for your selection.
Processing Time
All orders are processed within 1-2 business days, so please take handling time into account. USPS/UPS shipping times are calculated from the time the item was shipped, after processing time. Orders are not shipped or processed on weekends or U.S. national holidays.
During high volume of orders (mainly during the holiday season) and inclement weather, shipments may be delayed by a few more days.
Other possible reasons for late delivery include the following:
- Incorrect address
- Missing apartment, building, floor, or unit number
- International customs procedures
Please allow additional days in transit for delivery. If there will be a significant delay in the shipment of your order, we will contact you via email or telephone.
Confirmation & Order Tracking
You will receive a confirmation email once your order has shipped containing your tracking number(s). You can find your tracking information on the Track My Order link in the footer area of our website.
Parcel Damage
We take pride in how we pack our products. However, please take into consideration that sometimes damage to packages may occur during shipping.
If a product has arrived damaged, please contact us immediately and email photographs to: office@toyshnip.com. We will contact the shipping carrier to initiate a claim for you. Save all packaging materials and the damaged package and its contents, as the postal service may want to inspect it.

The customs invoice label includes the cost of the items. We will not change that price or mark it as a "gift" to avoid taxes.

All items are new, in their original packaging, and never opened or used. We guarantee the authenticity of our products, as we purchase directly from the manufacturers or official distributors. We want to make sure that first-time buyers feel secure in their purchases.
Where do you ship?
We ship worldwide to any country available by USPS. We've shipped to over 90 countries so far!

Import duties, taxes, and charges aren't included in the item price or postage cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to buying.
Do you use drop shipping?
We do not drop ship. We hold stock of all of our inventory and ship it ourselves.
I have a business and want to offer products to my customers. Can I use ToyShnip as a drop ship service? Can I get an inventory file with SKUs and photos for my website? Can I get bulk pricing discounts?
We only sell retail and not wholesale. We cannot guarantee inventory to be available at all times. We do not offer bulk pricing discounts. For these reasons, we prefer not to be used as a source for drop shipping.
How do you pack the items?
We take pride in how we pack our products. We ship everything in boxes, using bubble wrap and other protective materials to ensure that your product arrives in the best condition possible. Because we treat every item as a collectible, we never use envelopes to send our products to you.
What if my product arrives damaged?
We understand that sometimes products can get damaged during shipping. If this happens, please contact us immediately so we can initiate a claim with the shipping carrier for expensive items, or send a replacement or a refund (where applicable). If an item is damaged, please save all packaging materials and email photographs of the damaged package and its contents to: office@toyshnip.com
What is your return policy?
Please refer to our Returns & Refunds Policy for all the information you need to return a product for a refund or exchange.
Can I combine my items into one shipment?
Yes, we combine shipping. If you add items to the cart and pay for them together, it should combine the shipping. If you place two orders with the same name/address, we may combine them and ship together in one box. However, we will avoid doing this practice when shipping internationally if it exceeds the customs free cap.
An item I ordered is marked as delivered, but is not here. What do I do?
We see this issue often (it is very common with USPS and other postal services). In most cases, this issue resolves itself in a few days. The reasons we see that an item is shown as "delivered" when it has not actually arrived are:
- The postal service mistakenly marked an item as delivered when it is still in transit.
- Item was delivered to the wrong address and the recipient returns it for redelivery to the post office or delivers the item themselves (for example, a neighbor).
- Item was delivered but left in a place different from the place packages are regularly left (for example, a side door as compared to the front door).
- Item was delivered and brought in by another household member.
- Shipping address on the order was entered incorrectly by the customer.
If after a few days the item still hasn't shown up, please contact us at office@toyshnip.com.
Why can't I reach someone at the phone number provided?
Since we fulfill orders for customers all over the world in different time zones, we can't answer the phone all the time and that's why we use email as our primary method of contact. This gives us more flexibility in response time. Communication via e-mail allows us to research and deliver full and accurate responses.
