Help!

My tracking has stopped updating!

Sometimes USPS misses a scan which results in inaccurate tracking information and delays. The good news is packages do usually arrive!

If the tracking hasn't updated for a week please email us.

If you did not purchase shipping insurance please reach out to USPS directly.

I need to update my address!

Email help@ashopofthings.com with the correct address ASAP! We'll do our best to make any changes before your order ships.

If your order has already shipped we are not responsible for tracking or refunding any packages sent to the wrong address.

Please be careful and double/triple check your shipping address at checkout!

My package was returned to sender!

Please email help@ashopofthings.com with your order number and the correct shipping address!

Once your package arrives back at our warehouse we can either reship it or refund your order minus the cost of shipping and a 15% restocking fee.

We cannot reship or refund orders until they arrive back.

If the package was returned due to an error in the address the customer is responsible for the cost of shipping it again.

If the original address was correct we will cover the cost of reshipping to a different address.

You have 30 days to re-claim your order from the date it was returned!

My order was marked as delivered but isn't here!

Occasionally packages get marked as delivered and end up arriving days later. Be sure to check your porch, neighbors, apartment offices, etc.

If a few days have passed reach out to your local post office. Don't call the 1-800 number, you'll be on hold for hours! Google "post office" in your zip code and call their direct number. You can also speak with your mail carrier or leave a note.

Can you give me more detailed tracking info?

We have the exact same tracking information you do!

If your package is lost or delayed your best option is to reach out to your local post office.

My item arrived damaged/broken!

Oh no! Send an email to help@ashopofthings.com with a photo and description of the issue. If you received a broken item please hang on to all packaging until we can process a replacement!

Please keep in mind much of our inventory is handmade and may contain slight variations in color, finish or shape. Please be forgiving, this is the charm of handmade items!

If your item has a small manufacturing flaw that does not affect the design or the function it is not eligible for a replacement.

All inventory goes through a quality inspection before shipping so rest assured that this is an unlikely situation. If anything was damaged during shipping please reach out to me!

I was charged multiple times!

This probably happened because your card was declined one or more times – what you're seeing on your account page are holds from each time the payment gateway tried to "ping" your account.

(It's like when you swipe a debit card to pumpgas– they'll place a temporary hold first to make sure there are funds in the account)The good news is these aren't actual charges so they just drop off of your account automatically, usually after a day or so.

If no order/payment went through we have nothing to cancel or refund!

Returns and Exchanges

What if I want to cancel my order?

Once an order is shipped it cannot be cancelled or refunded. Send us an email ASAP and we'll do our best, but can't guarantee an order can be cancelled once it's placed.

Please be sure you want to make a purchase before clicking submit!

If we are able to cancel your order it is subject to a 15% fee to cover the cost of processing the transaction both ways. We are a small business and this is the best we can do!

What's the return/exchange policy?

All sales are final once an order has been processed and shipped. We're a small business and that's all we can manage at this time.

If you have an issue with your order feel free to email help@ashopofthings.com.

If there are any problems with your order you have 30 days from the day the package is marked as "delivered" to contact us so we can make it right :)

Does your apparel fit true to size?

Yup! Please check out the last photo in any apparel listing for a size chart.

Shipping

How will my order be shipped?

All orders ship via USPS First-Class or Priority Mail and include tracking!

We do not offer expedited shipping at this time.

When will my order ship?

All orders ship between 2-7 business days, unless your item is handmade or there is a disclaimer during checkout.

You'll receive a separate email with tracking once your order has shipped. If you don't see it after a few days check your *sPaM fOlDeR*!

How long will it take my order to arrive?

Orders are typically in transit for 1-3 business days, however with current delays at the post office some packages take much longer, so please be prepared for this. We do not guarantee any shipping times.
