What are my Shipping Options?
USPS Priority Mail is used for domestic orders shipped inside of the US. This service costs $5.06 and takes 2-4 business days for orders to reach their destinations. Please note that orders over $100.00 will be sent with delivery confirmation to ensure the order has arrived at its proper destination.
Domestic Express orders take 2 business days. Express orders come with a tracking number and must be placed before 3 p.m. Express orders cost $17.00.
USPS Global Priority Mail is used for international orders and costs $10.00. Orders shipped with this method take 12-30 business days to reach their destinations. These types of orders do not have tracking numbers and Too Cute Beads cannot be held responsible for orders that fail to reach their destinations. TCB is not responsible for taxes or custom charges for your country.
International Express Orders take 5-7 business days to reach their destinations and do contain tracking numbers. TCB strongly recommends using this shipping method to make sure that orders reach their proper destinations. The cost for this service is $20.00. TCB is not responsible for taxes or custom charges for your country.
Shipping Time -- Most orders received before 3:00PM will ship the same day, provided the product ordered is in stock. Orders received after 3:00 PM will ship the next business day. Orders are not processed or shipped on Sunday. Domestic Priority Mail usually takes between 2-4 business days depending on the order's destination. Orders may take up to 6 business days in some cases.
International orders are expected to take 12-14 business days, but may take up to 30. We cannot guarantee when an order will arrive. Consider any shipping or transit time offered to you by Too Cute Beads as only an estimate. We encourage you to order in a timely fashion to avoid delays caused by shipping or product availability.
What Types of Payment do you Accept?
We accept Visa, Master Card, American Express, Discover and PayPal for payment. We do not accept personal check or cash on Web orders.
Do I Have to Pay Sales Tax?
If you have a billing or shipping address in the State of Michigan, you must pay a 6% Sales Tax. Sales Tax will not count for any promotions or discounts. If you have a Tax ID Number on file with the state, we can set up your account to have you as a Tax Exempt Customer. You will need to contact us before placing an order, and submit a copy of your ID and the “Michigan Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption” form. We cannot refund tax after an order has been placed.
Do You Accept Returns?
We will gladly accept the return of products that are defective due to defects in manufacturing and/or workmanship for 15 days from the date of purchase. Fulfillment mistakes that we make, resulting in the shipment of an incorrect product, will also be accepted for return 10 days from the date of purchase.
If you find you simply don't like the product you ordered, we will accept returns on most items at a 15% restocking fee within 10 days of your order. Returned products must be in the same condition that they were sent out in or they will be sent back to you. You MUST notify us first (by calling us at 1 (866) 342-3237) BEFORE sending any returns back to the company. Returns may affect the total price of your order due to our quantity discount system and shipping specials.
The reason we have a restocking fee is as follows:
We believe every customer should receive brand new, never before used items with each order. Items that have traveled and have been returend, we do not consider new and do not believe that the next customer who orders product should receive a prodcut that has been received and returned by someone else.
***We do not accept returns on any kits, tools, wire, and chain by-the-foot, or any specially requested items. Shipping costs are never refundable. (Too Cute Beads is not to be held responsible if the returned product fails to make it back to us.)
What is Your Discounting System?
All the prices that you see listed next to the product are base prices. Any discount is taken off this price after the item is placed in the Shopping Cart. How do you know how much you are saving? Once the items are in the Shopping Cart, you should see a "Subtotal Amount," followed by "Discount Amount". Please see our "Sale of the Week Page" for more information.
Do you have a Catalog?
No, we do not have a printed catalog. Due the rapid change in market prices and availability we just list all of the up to date information on our website. Not printing a calatog also helps us to keep our prices low.
How do I Place an Item on Backorder?
We do not offer a backorder list. If you have purchased an item with us before and do not see it now, this means that the product is currently out-of-stock. The item will be put back up on our website as soon as it becomes available. You will also receive notifications of items that are back in stock in your weekly newsletter. Please see the main page of our site for the link to sign up to receive our weekly newsletter.
