Shipping

Orders will be shipped either through the US Postal Service or by UPS Ground. You will receive a confirmation email when your order has shipped. Book and CD orders are generally sent by the US Postal service via Media Mail or Bound Printed Matter. To see the transit time for your order, go to the USPS Website and enter in 38141 as the "from" zip code and your zip code as the "to" zip code. Larger and heavier items such as statues will be shipped by UPS Ground. For all orders, you will receive your tracking number for the package via email upon shipment.

The shipping cost for US orders is the following:

$1.99 flat rate per order shipment plus:

$1.39 per graphic novel, CD, or video/DVD
$2.19 per small figurine (such as Collector's Magazine Figurines), T-shirt, poster, or wall scroll
$7.99 per statue, bust, large print, snowglobe, bookends, or other large/heavy item
$29.99 per oversized item, such as life-sized props, helmets, and extra large/heavy statues

We generally send out your order within three days of receiving it. Some items will take 4-5 business days to be sent if they are temporarily out of stock and need to be ordered. Items in our advance order catalog are expected to ship in about 8 or more weeks (because these items are solicited 2 months in advance of their release). You will receive an email confirmation when you item has shipped.

Domestic shipments will be insured at not extra cost, there will be no insurance on international shipments.

1. The order total before tax totals more than $99 and all items are in-stock and free shipping eligible. Free shipping will automatically be applied to the order.

By choosing "Group My Items to Save on Shipping," the order will be held until all items are in-stock and free shipping will be automatically applied to the order.

If there are items not eligible for free shipping included in the order, shipping will be charged only for those items not eligible for free shipping.

Shipping Options

You will be asked to choose between two shipping options at check out when applicable.

2. I want my items faster. Ship them separately as they become available. Your order will be broken into multiple shipments. If your order contains all Advance Order items you will be charged an order fee of $1.99 and a per item fee for each item. If your order contains In Stock items and Advance Order items you will be charged a one time order fee of $1.99 and a per item fee for each item that is In Stock and you will be charged an order fee of $1.99 and a per item fee for each Advance Order item.

Some advance order products are limited (such as limited edition statues and special limited edition signed books) and as a retailer we may be on allocation for items that have heavy demand. This is a rare occurrence, but should TalesOfWonder.com receive fewer items than our total order, we will allocate the items based on the earliest orders. No customer will receive multiples of the allocated item until all orders have received at least one.

We reserve the right to charge more for APO addresses and orders to Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. You will be contacted by Email with a shipping quote for the additional amount.
