SHIPPING
 
WE SHIP TO: Due to high shipping costs and difficulties shipping oversees, we are only shipping to the continental United States at this time. 

SHIPPING: Items shipped to locations in the continental United States are shipped via insured USPS mail and require a street address for shipment--no exceptions. Doll Avenue® has limited our shipping options to USPS Priority or Ground Advantage to assure our customers have the least problems receiving their orders. Once we receive your order and confirm your payment we will notify you by email that your shipment is on its way.  We opt to choose the method of shipping based on our costs. 

SHIPPING/HANDLING COSTS: Shipping charges will be calculated during the checkout process based on the following order totals. USPS Priority or Ground Advantage shipping includes insurance and delivery confirmation. *Most jewelry items and doll outfits can ship in a padded envelope. For items shipped this way, we will refund the difference if the amount you paid exceeds our costs by more than $2.00.
 
CONTINENTAL STATES:
$9.50 for orders up to $50
$12.50 for orders $50.01 to $100
$15.00 for orders $101 to $200
$18.50 for orders $201 to $350
$24.00 for all orders over $350

SHIPPING WITHIN CA: Due to increases in shipping/insurance costs, I now charge a flat $5.00 for all California orders.    

SALES TAX: Sales tax will be charged for every order delivered to a California address.

LOSS/DAMAGE: We take pride in packaging all items carefully and securely for shipping via USPS Priority Mail, which includes insurance and delivery confirmation. We are not responsible for loss or damage caused by USPS. When your item leaves our shop it is as-described condition. We have no control over a shipment once it is in the hands of the USPS. The CUSTOMER will have to address any insurance claims with USPS per their guidelines, though we will be happy to assist in providing any necessary information needed to file a claim.


RETURNS: We hope you will be happy with your purchase, but will take returns that meet our guidelines below.

Cancelled Orders
Customers requesting to cancel an order after purchase, but before the item has shipped must contact us via email with a reason for cancellation. PLEASE NOTE: Paypal charges us a transaction fee and it is non-refundable.  Cancelled orders will be refunded to the customer minus our Paypal fee.  
 
Vintage and Sale Items
  1. All vintage sales are FINAL and sold AS IS, so please email us with questions before placing your order. We will do our best to represent these collectible dolls accurately. If something is important to you, please ask questions BEFORE purchasing.  No returns permitted.

New and Regular Priced Items
  1. All regular priced items may be returned or exchanged based on the policies stated above and our return guidelines below. Shipping charges are not refunded on returns.

  3. Please include the reason for the return and the order number.

  4. Return the item(s) in their original condition with a copy of your Invoice and the Authorization Email.
