What is your privacy policy?
We do not sell our customers names, phone numbers, or email addresses. Phone numbers and email addresses are required so that we may contact you about your order.
How do I order?
The easiest way is by using our online shopping cart and completing the transaction with a credit card. Just click on the item numbers to add fun stuff to your cart. You can change the quantities or remove items at any time. When you are satisfied with your order, click 'check out' to move on to the secure server.
If I don't want to use a credit card on-line, can I still use the shopping cart?
YES! We recommend that you still use the cart. It will estimate your shipping charges and collect all the important information we will need to fill your order. When you get to the billing information, just choose 'look for my payment in the mail' and submit the order. Then print the final page to mail or fax to us with your payment. This method will give you an order number that you can reference to contact us about your order.

How much is shipping?
Shipping varies based on weight, box size, where you live, and how fast you need your order. If you use the on-line shopping cart to order, it will estimate your shipping charges for you. Because we ship a wide variety of products all over the world, the estimate may not always be accurate. If shipping will be more than the quote, we will contact you before shipping the order. Please include your phone number on your order and make sure your email is correct!
Minimum shipping charge within the USA is $6. Minimum shipping charge outside the USA is $15.
When will I get my order / how fast can I get my order?
There is a place on the order form to choose between several shipping options depending on how fast you need your order. We can meet most deadlines, but fast shipping will cost more than standard/ground shipping. Availability and turn-around times vary seasonally. If you will need your order in less than 2 business days for a domestic order or less than 2 weeks for an international order, we recommend you call our customer service department at 1-512-858-5063 to get the most accurate information when you are ready to order. We cannot guarantee delivery times to P.O. Boxes or FPO / APO addresses. International delivery can only be guaranteed pending normal customs clearance.
Delivery times are for in-stock items only. If an item is on backorder, we will attempt to contact you for instructions if we will not be able to deliver by your deadline. If we do not receive other instructions, we will maintain the item on backorder and ship it when it is available.
Why do you need my phone number?
We use your phone number to contact you if there are questions or problems concerning your order. If you do not provide a valid telephone number, we cannot guarantee delivery of your order. We do not sell our customer's phone numbers.
Do you ship to APO/FPO addresses or P.O. Boxes?
Yes. We will gladly ship your order to a post office box or APO or FPO address. Orders to this type of address are shipped Priority, First Class Mail, or Parcel Post through the U.S. Post Office. We cannot guarantee delivery times to these addresses. Members of the military who need rush shipping with a guaranteed delivery date (pending normal customs clearance), should use a street address in the country where they are stationed and choose the appropriate international shipping option. Please include your phone number on your order.
Do you ship outside the USA?
Yes, we ship to most countries all over the world. The on-line order form has options for you to choose international shipping. You MUST choose an international shipping option for your shipping charges to be estimated correctly. If you choose a USA shipping option, your order might be delayed or not shipped at all. Please note that international delivery times can only be guaranteed pending normal customs clearance.
MORE IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR INTERNATIONAL ORDERS:
Charges for your order include merchandise and shipping only.
You will also be responsible for any taxes/duties levied by your country and for customs brokerage if necessary.
If you are unsure about the types or amount of fees you may be expected to pay, we urge you to contact your local customs office. Please do not contact us with these questions. We do not keep customs information for individual countries!
It is your responsiblity to ensure that the items you ordered are not prohibited for entry into your country.
If your shipment is returned unclaimed or for refusal to pay customs, it will be handled under our normal return policy. Shipping will not be refunded. We must include an accurate invoice of items for customs. Requests to do otherwise will be ignored.
APO/FPO addresses must also include a customs form. We can only ship to APO/FPO addresses through the US Postal service. The delivery time is NOT guaranteed. If you have an APO/FPO address and need a guaranteed delivery time, you must provide us with STREET address to which UPS can deliver and choose the International Express shipping option. In this case, your shipping address will be to the country where you are stationed, NOT USA.!
What is your return/exchange policy?
Returns are handled on an individual basis. The following are general guidelines. Please contact us for our return policy on specific items:

The following items may NOT be returned: teeth, wigs, masks, hats, magic supplies, video tapes, makeup, hair spray, lingerie, special order items.
