BRICKTOWN...a Bricklink® Store

Attention International Buyers: U.S. POSTAL RATES HAVE GONE UP AGAIN!!! The prices for shipping internationally have risen dramatically (a 2 ounce package is now $13.50!) I will still ship to some international locations, but I suggest a $35+ minimum part order to make it cost effective for you. Shipping sets internationally is cost prohibitive unless you are buying several sets. A 5% fee will be added to all international orders to help cover the extra costs and time associated with preparing these packages. Other than the fee, shipping charges will be the exact postal cost plus $1.00 (Up to $2.00 for large boxes). U.S. Buyers: The post office has also taken away the discounted rate for printing labels online. (This was supposed to help defray the cost of printing supplies, the sellers time, etc. yet, I often passed some of this discount onto the buyer). Since this has gone away, I will now just charge the actual USPS retail rate plus $1.00 to help cover the costs of packaging materials (Up to $2.00 for large boxes). .

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING...

SHIPPING:

Once your order is filled and invoiced, it will usually ship within 24 hours of payment. Shipping will be done as economically as possible via the United States Postal Service. Shipping cost includes the actual shipping charge, plus the cost of packaging such as the use of a bubble mailer, box, packing peanuts, etc. Shipping charges are as follows:

  1. MINIMUM SHIPPING CHARGE $3.60
  2. US PRIORITY MAIL (under 1 Pound) $6.75
  3. US PRIORITY MAIL (over 1 Pound) VARIES BY WEIGHT AND DISTANCE due to postal ZONING
  4. STANDARD POST (what used to be called Parcel Post) is also an option, but unfortunately due to recent Postal price increases, it is nearly the same cost as Priority...but takes much longer.


          Package Weight       Shipping Cost
    1-4 ounces$3.67
    5 ounces$3.85
    6 ounces$4.03
    7 ounces$4.21
    8 ounces$4.39
    9 ounces$4.57
    10 ounces$4.75
    11 ounces$4.93
    12 ounces$5.11
    13 ounces +Priority Mail

     
  5. All domestic packages are sent with tracking numbers. Insurance is also available and is free up to $50 for all U.S. packages sent Priority mail. **Please note, though I've had packages arrive "late," having packages lost or damaged is extremely rare, However, BUYER Assumes ALL risk for Un-Insured Packages.**


  6. Shipping for sets can be difficult to estimate on your own, since USPS charges based on weight, distance AND size. Feel free to email me with shipping information and I'll be happy to provide you with an estimate.

    PAYMENT:

    Payment can be made by:
    1. Cash (at own risk)
    2. Money Order
    3. Paypal

    4. PAYPAL PAYMENTS: All orders paid through Paypal will ONLY be sent to a confirmed address- please correct any discrepancies with Paypal before ordering. Also note any large orders paid with Paypal will be shipped insured with signature confirmation...per Paypal's protection policies. These services will be quoted as part of the shipping cost.

      By submitting an order, you agree to the terms and conditions described on this Splash page and in BrickLink.com's Terms of Service. Unless special arrangements are made in advance, payment is expected within 3 days of my sending you an invoice.

      BREATH FREE...ALL the products in my store come from a Non-Smoking, Pet Free Home :o)

      SHOP WITH CONFIDENCE...Your satisfaction is guaranteed! All new parts (99.9% of what I sell) are direct from Lego boxes, handled only for sorting.

      LOT LIMITS:

      When ordering, please try to average $1 per lot. Some EXAMPLES of (1) lot are "(2) 1x4 blue plates", "(40) 1x4 red plates", "(1200) red 2x4 bricks."

      So, a $20 dollar order should average a maximum of 20 lots; a $30 order should average a maximum of 30 lots, etc. These limits provide for greater efficiency in order processing (which means you get your order faster). Any orders exceeding these limits may be automatically cancelled as my current job does not allow for the time necessary to process excessive lots. Thank you for your understanding.



      SET/PARTS CONDITION:

      All parts are NEW in "never played with condition", handled only for sorting. Please note NEW does not equal MINT. New indicates that the parts are new, direct from Lego, and have not been used before. Parts are not inspected for minor imperfections. Keep in mind that these parts have traveled quite a distance to get here and may have some minor scratching from rubbing against other parts in transit. Defective parts or parts with major imperfections are not sold.

      Certain parts may have mold variations listed as separate items in the Bricklink catalog. We do not differentiate between these minor part variations as sometimes they are not even consistent from set to set. If you require a certain mold variant, please contact us before placing your order and we will confirm what type(s) we have.

      Please note that Lego doesn't always have the best quality control when it comes to colors shades, this is especially true of Trans-clear, White, and Yellow. This is rarely a problem, but ultimately out of my control. However I will always do my best to match all parts ordered.

      Many sets are near Mint condition, but to be safe (unless otherwise noted), all sets are sold NISB but may have price stickers on them or minor shelf wear. If box condition is important, please ask prior to placing the order and I will confirm condition for you.


      INVENTORY AND ORDER ACCURACY:

      All parts and sets are added to my inventory in good faith. You are shopping in one of the very first stores on Bricklink. In the earlier years, the part-set databases were not always accurate and the system was often unstable, resulting in inventory errors. As a result, my listed inventory may not be accurate. If and when a shortage occurs I will provide you with an order credit on your invoice.

      Though I pack all orders as carefully and accurately as possible,VERY RARELY I may miscount a part in your order. Part quantities within +/- 1% of the quantity that you ordered are considered complete. What this means is that if you order 100 of a part, it is possible that you will get 99, 100, or 101 of the part AND that this is considered to be a complete amount. Bottom line, if I accidentally short you a part, I will immediately refund the amount owed back to you, but will not pay an additional $3.00 to ship out a missed part valued at only a few cents...(though I would be happy to add it to a future order).

      Also, VERY RARELY, I may have a mis-priced item in my inventory due to an error in listing. (Like a $50 set for .50 cents, etc.) As is customary in U.S. retail stores, I reserve the right to refuse to sell any item that is accidentally mis-priced.


      FEEDBACK:

      If you have any problems or concerns with your order, please contact me and I will do what I can to make things right ASAP. It is my intent to provide you with GREAT customer service and earn a positive feedback rating.
