Shipping Information

 

I am only able to receive packages via US MAIL.  

If shipping via UPS, Fed-Ex, DHL, your package will be returned to you.

Pick-up/drop-off service is not available.  I apologize, but there are no exceptions. 

 

Please ship your entire doll  (as opposed to the head only).  This is very important so I do not have to handle the head and hair.  

Please send your dolls nude (no clothing or jewelry please!)

Please use: white tissue and/or 1 - 2 pieces of bubble wrap, or other plain packaging paper.

(Just one piece of scotch tape is fine, please, so I don't to struggle to free dolls from tightly taped up packets or use scissors anywhere near the dolls)
  
Please do not send your dolls enclosed in individual cardboard doll display boxes. These are bulky and hard for me to store while your dolls are here.

Please do not wrap your doll in newspaper or colored tissue paper as any dye or print will stain your doll's vinyl.

If shipping more than one doll, please send them in ONE box only. 
Multiple dolls will be returned in ONE box only as well.

Photos - I regret that I am unable to take 'before' and 'after' photos of all dolls.  
Therefore please take desired 'before' photos before you ship your package.

 

*************

 

For those within the U.S. I recommend Priority, insured mail (The post office provides a free, sturdy priority shipping box as well).   For packages with a replacement value of $2,000 and over, I recommend using Registered, insured mail (Please check with the post office for their specific packaging requirements for US Registered mail).   
For those living outside the U.S. I recommend shipping via Airmail/Registered. Please write: 'used, broken toys for repair' on the customs form. 
When I return your dolls I will indicate that I am returning used toys to their original owner, after repair.  
Please insure your package  -- Though this is a rare occurrence, insurance will protect you from loss or damage in the postal system. 
A few words on the USPS's 'Delivery Confirmation' -- If you print your mailing label online at usps.com,  electronic delivery confirmation is free.  
Electronic-DC numbers, however, may not be scanned when the package is mailed, nor is delivery confirmation a 'tracking' service. 

DC numbers are scanned when the package reaches its destination zip code.  
This does not indicate that I have personally received your package, just that it has arrived at the post office
.  
Please make sure your full name and address are on the return address (and your email address would be a plus, too) so I may email you when package is in my possession.  
If there is no name on the return address, I will not contact you until I open your package.
