Prior to Shipment

If you need to cancel an order, for whatever reason, please contact Customer Service immediately. As long as an order has not yet shipped it can be canceled for a full refund.

Already Shipped

Orders can not be canceled after shipment has been made. In this case, please see Returns/Refunds for options.

General

Playing With Fusion generally ships within 1-2 business days of order clearing. Unforeseen or special circumstances may prevent the immediate clearing of orders, so please ensure all shipping and contact information is provided with your order. This will ensure that any issue can be resolved quickly and we can get your order out the door. As soon as your order is shipped, a confirmation email, including available tracking information, will be sent to you.

We charge actual shipping costs plus $2.00 handling charge per order. Shipping is available through the United States Postal Service (USPS) and UPS. No other shipping methods are available at this time.

UPS does not deliver to PO Boxes. You must choose USPS as your carrier if shipping to a PO Box or your package will be returned to us at your expense.

UPS orders are shipped ‘Signature Not Required’ by default, though the carrier may decide to require a signature based on value or destination. If you need your order to be sent ‘Signature Required’, please contact Customer Service or add a note in the comments field during checkout. If a package shipped ‘Signature Not Required’ is left but is not there when you arrive, neither the carrier nor Playing With Fusion can be held responsible. All orders requiring a signature upon delivery must be shipped UPS.

Playing With Fusion cannot be held responsible for lost, damaged or stolen shipments. We will help file claims for shipments that are insured (UPS). Please contact Customer Service for assistance in initiating a claim.

Costs

Shipping costs are calculated during checkout. Shipping estimates can be made prior to checking out by adding all items you need to your cart then clicking ‘calculate shipping’ on the shopping cart page. Total S&H cost is actual shipping costs plus $2.00 handling per order. We do not currently have means to charge your UPS account instead of paying our actual shipping charges.

Intentional Backorders

You have several options for ordering backordered products when placing an order. First, you may sign up to receive a notification when a product comes back ‘in-stock’ by contacting Customer Service. This method does not result in an order being placed or paid for until a later time of your choosing.

The next option is checking out with a mix of in-stock and back-ordered items. In this case you can choose to either ship the order whole or to ship the order in two shipments. To ship the order whole, please select the ‘ship complete’ box at checkout. The entire order will ship as soon as all products are in-stock and you will only have to pay S&H on one shipment.

If prompt delivery of the in-stock part of your order is required, uncheck the ‘ship complete’ box at checkout to split the order into two shipments. One shipment will be sent immediately and include all in-stock items, and a second shipment will be sent as soon as all back-ordered items are back in-stock. For split shipping orders, two separate S&H charges will be applied, though S&H will show up as a single line item on an invoice. Also, the shipping method selected at checkout will be applied to both shipments unless explicitly noted in the comments field.

The final option for ordering backordered items is to submit an order of only backordered items. This type of order, by default, will be shipped whole as soon as all products come in-stock. You will only be charged a single S&H charge as a result.

In addition, if you are placing an order and you wish to purchase more of a product than is available, please contact Customer Service to get an availability date prior to placing your order. In this situation, the ordering options discussed above still apply.

Unintentional Backorders

Mistakes will occasionally happen, so in the case of an unintentional backorder, we will contact you as soon as we identify the issue to determine the appropriate course of action. You may change your order to match only the available stock, cancel the order, or have us ship the order in two separate lots as soon as additional stock becomes available. As this situation is our mistake, you will not be charged shipping for the second shipment.
