In nearly all cases, I ship your order within 1 to 3 business days after receiving your cleared payment. (Naturally, custom orders will require additional time, but I will provide you with the expected shipping date before you place your order.) Please realize that once I have given your package to the USPS, I have no further control over how quickly it will be delivered to you. However, my experience over many years of using USPS is they have provided consistently good delivery. Also, I will email you the tracking number for your shipment so you may check on its progress through the USPS system.

If you have a question or comment, you can contact me by using the "Ask Us A Question" link on any of the product listings.

You can pay for your order by: - PayPal - Credit cards through PayPal (Note: payments will appear on your credit card statement under MAD SCIENCE MINIATURES or ADVENTURES & HOBBIES)

If you live in New York State, I am a registered business and am required to collect local and state sales tax on your purchases.

I ship all domestic orders through the United States Postal Service which has proven to be very reliable over the years.

I take great care to accurately describe every item and guarantee that each is packed well when shipped. In nearly every case with domestic shipping within the United States, I will provide you with a tracking number so you may follow the shipment on the USPS website. I only accept returns in the rare case that I have sent the wrong item (which in all honesty has occurred once in my many years of selling). Over the years I have been in business, my customers have been overwhelmingly pleased with my efforts. If you have any issues with my products or service, please let me know.
