badcattoys@gmail.comFREE SHIPPING:
Our free shipping special applies only to orders placed within the 50 United States. Pre-ordered items are not included in the Free Shipping special. Excluded Items: Any item marked "Oversize".
How fast is the 'Cat? Our daily goal is to ship all orders placed before 10 am PST the same day. In fact, 95% of all incoming orders (except preorders, of course) are shipped within one business day. Our shipping options are designed to meet almost everyone's needs:
UPS GROUND:
UPS provides package drop-off at your door and very consistent service throughout the USA. Order confirmation and tracking numbers are emailed for all purchases. All UPS orders are insured.
USPS PRIORITY:
PRIORITY shipments can be faster than ground shipments to many locations inside the USA. However, the USPS does not guarantee delivery times. USPS Postal fees are non-refundable, so please make sure your address is complete and correct. If a USPS package is returned to us as "undeliverable" the Post Office will require fresh postage to send it again.
FREE SHIPPING TO US SERVICE PERSONELL DEPLOYED OVERSEAS:
Bad Cat nows offers FREE SHIPPING to US SOLDIERS deployed overseas under any of the following three conditions:
1. If you are a soldier serving your country and deployed to a foreign country and have an APO/FPO address. (APO address must appear in the Ship To section)
2. If you are a soldier deployed overseas and are shipping a toy to a family member in the USA. (APO address must appear in the Bill To section)
3. If you are a family member of a US soldier and wish to ship him/her our merchandise. (APO address must appear in the Ship To section)
NEXT DAY, 2ND DAY, 3-DAY SELECT AIR:
If you desire this service, please indicate so in the "message" section during checkout. These rates are calculated after checkout as air charges are based both on weight and package size. We must first pick and pack your order before we know how much it will cost to ship. Due to the type of products we sell, our packages tend to be large and light in weight which translates into expensive when shipping by air. For example, a 1:18 scale airplane shipped to the East Coast using NEXT DAY can easily cost $150 or more! Airline travel is a premium service and the shipping companies charge accordingly. If time allows, we will try to contact and confirm charges, but if this is not possible, we will charge and ship as ordered. Shipping charges are non-refundable once processed.
INTERNATIONAL ORDERS:
On orders outside the USA, we calculate shipping charges after checkout. We have to pack and weigh your order before arriving at a shipping total. We base international shipping charges on www.USPS.gov published rates for International Express or Global Priority + $10.00 handling PER BOX SENT. If you pay by Paypal, we will bill you for shipping once we pick, pack and weigh your order. Allow 48 hours for prepping international orders.
International Express and Global Priority provide the best value considering speed, trackability, and insurability to destinations outside the USA. It is not unusual for shipping to run 50%-100% of the cost of the merchandise on international orders. Make sure your address information is accurate and complete, if your package is returned to us as "undeliverable" the post office will keep your postage money.
Any Customs Duties/Taxes/Tariffs levied by the customer's country are the customer's responsiblity to pay. We will NOT, under any circumstance, alter invoices or write "gift" on any package in an effort to evade these taxes, please do not request us to do so.
PREORDERS:
When new merchandise arrives, it often comes in short supply with high demand. Preorders are filled first, in a rough FIFO order. We pride ourselves as being the fastest gun in the West when it comes to shipping new merchandise. Any remaining merchandise left after the Preorders are filled is put on the site as "in stock" and sold normally. Please keep "in stock" merchandise and "Preorders" on separate tickets (check out separately).
IN-STOCK:
Orders placed before 10 am Pacific Time Monday through Friday normally ship out the same day. All in-stock items are subject to availability on hand.
PICTURED MERCHANDISE:
Our goal is to photograph in-house all the merchandise we stock by removing an actual product from its packaging and taking pictures of it (an expensive and time consuming process). However, some of the photographs shown on this site are supplied by the manufacturer and these pics may vary in detail from what is actually shipped. All photographs on this site are the Copyrighted Assets of Bad Cat Toys, Inc. and may not be used elsewhere without written permission from BCAT.
COUPONS:
One coupon per day/per household. Persons placing multiple orders using the same coupon code will have all orders canceled.
CHARGEBACKS:
Customers who initiate credit card or Paypal chargebacks will have all pending transactions canceled and be prohibited from placing future orders. With exception of credit card fraud, customers who chargeback will be held responsible for the amount of the chargeback plus any banking, legal, and interest charges BCAT incurs in the collection process.
