If you need to change or cancel your order, please let us know as soon as possible.

If your order is to be reshipped, an additional shipping is required before reprocessing or reshipping orders. All missing deliveries must be reported to us within 60 days.

COMBINED SHIPPING

If multiple orders with same shipping address are received, we do our best to combine them during the packing/shipping process. However, we cannot guarantee the combination of such orders. This applies to all orders, whether received through this website, our any other Owned or managed websites. Please understand, with the volume of orders received through our internet stores, we must follow our procedures to remain as efficient as possible.

When multiple orders are combined for shipment, the difference between actual shipping expense and total shipping charges paid will be refunded to the customer.

PAY PAL

When selecting Pay Pal as your preferred payment choice, you will be taken to Pay Pal's website, where you may securely complete your transaction. Although an order confirmation email is sent to you, Order Fulfillment Process does not begin until you have completed your Pay Pal process.

Please Note: Due to the time delay for e-Checks to clear through Pay Pal, e-Checks are not accepted. With number of orders and Pay Pal notifications received daily, it is too easy for orders paid with e-Checks to be missed when e-Checks are cleared. We cannot accept the responsibility to assure timely order fulfillment with this payment option.

MONEY ORDERS

Please complete your order on line, print and include a copy of your order with payment. Orders received without first completing on-line may be delayed until time is made to do so for you.

Payment is due within ten (10) days from the date of original purchase. Order Fulfillment Process does not begin until receipt of Money Order.

INTERNATIONAL ORDERS:
Unfortunately, due to delays, servicing fees, and security issues, Money Orders are not accepted on International sales.

PERSONAL CHECKS

(select "Money Order"
as the form of payment). Orders received without first completing on-line may be delayed until time is made to do so for you.

Payment is due within ten (10) days from the date of original purchase. Order Fulfillment Process does not begin until personal check is received, and cleared.

CREDIT CARDS
Just Miniature Scale gladly accepts:

- VISA
- MasterCard
- American Express
- Discover Card
- Pay Pal
- Money Orders

GIFT CREDIT CARDS:
Gift Credit Cards are accepted. However, when ordering on line, credit card companies verify card validity by reviewing the Billing address entered with the card holder's address in their database. Since Gift Credit Cards typically have different address than your Billing address, approval is not likely. When using a Gift Credit Card, please complete your order using the "Call us" payment option, then give us a call to process the charge manually.

IF YOU DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE USING CREDIT CARDS ONLINE - NO PROBLEM:
While our web sites are completely secure, we certainly understand your concerns about purchasing over the internet. We have absolutely no problems with handling your credit card processing manually. Simply complete your order and select "Call us" as your payment option, then give us a call, during our business hours, at 724-838-0505, and we will complete your credit card transaction for you.

PRODUCT AVAILABILITY

There is nothing more discouraging to us than disappointing our customers. Our website is updated daily from both local inventory, as well as the inventories from our major distributors. If listed, products are available at the time of our update.

On occasion, both our store and our suppliers can be temporarily out of stock on some items. When this occurs we ship those items which are available, advise our customers of the situation, and return the amount paid for the item(s), plus any applicable tax, to the customer’s credit card, or Pay Pal account, used when the original order was made. If unavailable items exceed 50% of total value for all items purchased, the original shipping charge is also refunded (US & Canada Only). However, this does not apply when orders include quantities exceeding specific quantities available stated in product descriptions. In the case of Money Orders, a check is issued to the customer within 24 hours of shipment. Refund checks are mailed separately.

ORDER FULFILLMENT PROCESS

All orders are filled from either our Greensburg, PA facilities, or when economically feasible and/or in the best interest of our customers, we may retain our distributors to drop ship orders directly to our customers.

Please understand, we offer over 30,000 miniatures on our website, and frequently add new lines of miniatures for you to enjoy. While our inventory is significant, we cannot house all items locally. To reduce order fulfillment time as much as possible, we replenish our inventory several times a week, and it may take a few business days to receive, sort, pack, and ship your order. Other factors may also affect shipment time, such as coordinating certain products from multiple sources. We ask for a bit of understanding and patience in those situations where our inventory may be low or exhausted on some items. Depending on when your order is placed, relative to when our store orders are made, the process could extend shipment timing several business days. Holidays and weekends may also affect shipping time. Please allow 7-10 day for delivery within the US.
