Thank you for visiting Mango Mage Gifts!
Please take a moment to read over the ordering information provided below.

~~~  General Information  ~~~
Prices are subject to change & items may be
discontinued without notice.

Occasionally the content of this page will be changed or
updated.  We recommend you check the date posted at the top
of this page, to make sure you are aware of any changes
before
placing your order.

At this time, portions of our web site are under construction.  We
apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and are
working as quickly as possible to get these changes finished.
~~~  Payment Options  ~~~
For those who do not wish to use Paypal™,
VISA & MasterCard payments are now accepted
during checkout.

Payments may also be made by check, money order
or (for local deliveries) cash.

For payments made with a personal check, it is agreed that if
the check is returned for non-sufficient funds
or otherwise unpaid, customer agrees to pay a returned check
fee up to $30.

As technology improves, fraudulent checks & money orders
become harder to detect.  Therefore ALL paper payments
are subject to a waiting period before your order will ship
.
Waiting times vary depending on the payment method, issuer, & origin - it
can be anywhere from 24hrs to 10 days.
~~~  Shipping  ~~~
The majority of packages will be shipped within
24-72 hours via USPS, unless special arrangements
have been made.

U.S.A. Shipping Rates*
$0 - 30.00 ..... $5.50
$30.01 - 50.00 ..... $8.00
$50.01 - 75.00 ..... $12.00
$75.01 and up ..... $15.00

* Currently we are working on a new shipping rate system,
which we hope to base on the delivery location & item size.  
The new USPS rate system has made it very difficult to calculate
package cost ahead of time ... but we are trying to make your
shipping costs as accurate as possible!  

Most packages weighing under 13 oz. are shipped USPS First
Class/Parcel Post.  Heavier packages are often upgraded to
USPS Priority Mail or sent via another carrier.

In most cases there is little to no difference between the arrival
time of 1st class & Priority Mail.

FEEDBACK ON OUR NEW SHIPPING RATES IS APPRECIATED!
<--- Simply fill out the form on the left.


APO and FPO address welcome!
We'll gladly ship packages to Military Mail addresses. At this
time, all APO/FPO packages can be shipped for the standard
US rates.  Depending on changes to the current USPS postal
rules, restrictions or extra costs could occur.
**NEW** Delivery Confirmation is now available on Military Mail!
INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS

  • Most international shipments fall in the $15
    to $20 range.  Therefore, we have set a $20
    approximate international flat rate to speed
    up order processing.   The final rate that you pay may
    be higher or lower, depending on the actual cost.  Lower
    cost adjustments will be refunded.  Higher costs will be
    billed (upon approval.)

  • International shipping costs are calculated after your
    order has been placed.  The changes to USPS's
    international shipping rates have made it impossible to
    estimate shipping during checkout - there are too many
    variables affecting the cost now.  

  • International rates are based on actual cost, plus a
    $2.00 - $2.50 handling charge (this covers packaging
    costs & delivery to the post office.)

  • Because size limitations are applied to international
    shipments, orders containing many large items may
    need to be split among several boxes.  

  • The BUYER is responsible for ALL TAXES & CUSTOM
    DUTIES on purchased items. Item price will be declared
    at the final sale price.  International shipments will not
    be marked as a "gift" unless the buyer is located within
    the US.

  • If you have questions or shipping requests please let us
    know. We're always happy to give you an estimate, or
    discuss other shipping options.
** PLEASE NOTE **
We retain the right to refuse shipment to any international
location, should unforeseen problems occur.
This includes violations of customs' regulations,
postal laws, etc.  Additional information about shipping to a
specific country can be found
here.
Should your shipment be refused, you will be refunded the
entire payment amount.

At this time Folkmanis® puppets cannot be shipped to Italy.
~~~  Returns  ~~~
Any damage must be reported immediately upon
receipt of your shipment.

Returns postmarked within 7 days of receipt AND paid by
Paypal are eligible for a money back refund
For all other payment methods & items returned within 8-30
days, a merchandise credit or exchange will be given.

Shipping costs are non-refundable*
Return postage is the buyer's responsibility.
*If an item is faulty due to a manufacturing defect, please
contact us BEFORE returning your item.   The manufacturer
may issue a return shipping label and handle the
return/replacement directly.

All returns must be returned within 15 days with a
copy of the original invoice.
The item must be returned in the condition it was received.

For orders damaged during shipment, please contact us at


and wait for instructions.  Do NOT return the item as this may
invalidate shipping insurance and cause you to lose your
refund/replacement

Insurance and/or Delivery Confirmation is recommended on
returns.  You will not be refunded if we do not receive the item.

Whimsical Wishes is not responsible for merchandise
damaged due to excessive wear and tear.
Back Orders & Discontinued Items
While we try to keep the most popular items in-stock at all
times, some items will need to be special ordered or
placed on backorder.

We will fill your order as quickly as possible, and in some
cases may separate your items into 2 shipments.

As a result of the current economic conditions,
backorders may take longer than normal to fill.

Backorders are usually filled between 3 - 28 days,
depending on the time of year & the manufacturer's
minimum order requirements.

(Many manufacturers are raising their minimum order amounts
as a result of increasing shipping costs - this directly affects the
frequency of orders we are able to place.)

If an item is discontinued, you will be notified & given
the option to receive a refund or exchange.
