Is someone trying to contact you?

Maybe it's Roses and Teacups!

If the email listed in your Paypal account isn't current, all of our answers to your questions and all of our notices about backorders, shipments, etc. may be floating out into cyberspace!  Please check to be sure that we have your current email address, your current shipping address and your correct phone number.  Thanks!

  FAQ:

"Why do you need my phone number?"

Many of our suppliers use shipping companies which require customer phone numbers.  In addition, if we need to contact you for any reason regarding your order, this greatly assists us in the process.  Although we faithfully respond to every phone call and email, we have found that emails are sometimes bounced back to us, lost in SPAM folders, or sent to old addresses.  Phone calls are more reliable and will get you your order FASTER!

"Where is the rest of my order?" 

We offer many handcrafted gifts which ship directly from where they are created, decorated, poured, sewn, assembled, etc.  One order may contain items from 5 sources!  So don't panic ~ The remainder of your order is most likely shipping in another box.

"Why is my order taking so long"

Many of our items are handcrafted one at a time just for you!  Please plan ahead as much as you are able, especially for large events.  Some things just cannot be rushed.  Check the pages of our site for shipping guidance.  We try to let you know how long to allow for various items.  When in doubt; ask!

    International Customers: 

We are so thrilled to have regular customers in Canada, Australia, Denmark, New Zealand, UK, Taiwan, South Korea, Norway, Bermuda, Japan, Hong Kong, France, Germany, Thailand, Netherlands, Singapore, South Africa, Argentina, Mexico and Brazil.  We currently do not ship our fragile items outside of the continental US and Canada but are delighted to ship our Quilted Accessories, Pens, Stationery and other smaller, less fragile items anywhere in the world!

To expedite the ordering and shipping process for our international customers, we require payment via Paypal, the number one way that money is exchanged worldwide!

We use First Class International, Global Priority or Global Express Mail for our international shipping, depending on the size and weight of the items and the country of destination.  We ship our international purchases on a weekly basis (usually on Wednesdays.)  This allows us to maintain a policy of NOT charging extra handling fees for our international customers.

If you haven't shipped overseas lately, you will be shocked at the cost!  We have based our shipping table on actual experience.  It's not perfect, but it's pretty accurate.  Special circumstances may require additional charges.  We are continuing to work at improving and updating the checkout and shipping process for your benefit!

If your order weighs 4 lbs. or more, we have to ship Global Priority or Global Express and do not have the First Class International Option.

  Returns:

We want you to be totally happy with your purchase!  If something is not as it should be, please let us know immediately!  We can only accept returns if you notify us within 3 days of receiving your merchandise!  You will then have an additional 14 days to make your return for a full refund of your purchase cost. 

We must receive items in the same condition in which they were shipped, ie., we have to be able to resell them,  if we are going to issue a return.  This means that it is unlikely that we will be able to issue a return on fabric items which have been in a smoking home.

Some of our items must be returned to addresses other than our company address.  Please wait before returning your items so that we can advise you if this is the case with your order.


We regret that we cannot refund shipping costs.  If items are damaged in transit, we will work with the shipping company to claim a refund for you.  We NEVER charge you for OUR mistakes!  Sorry~ No refunds are given on Clearance or Sale Merchandise!  Please be aware:  Some of our Teaware is custom-decorated and cannot be returned unless damaged.


 
  Mistakes:

Nancy and Julie never make mistakes, but occasionally their evil twins, Fancy and Jolly, do.  When this happens, we will do whatever necessary to make things right for you.  Please ask!

  Out of Stock Items:

We appreciate all of our customers, but because we try so hard to please, we find hit-and-run shoppers very frustrating.  Nancy coined this term for our dear friends who shop with us but leave us no way to contact them when there is a problem with their order.  If you leave us an email address, it must be one that you check, and you must periodically check your spam folder in case we wind up there.  If something you order is out of stock, and we cannot contact you, we reserve the right to make a substitution or to issue a refund.  If you have given us a special request that we need to further clarify and we receive no responses to our emails, we reserve the right to stop trying after 2 or 3 attempts.


  Shipping:
 
We ship internationally approximately once a week.  Domestic orders are usually shipped within 5-7  business days.  If you need something by a certain date, please be sure to let us know!  We now ship UPS which means (yea!) that you will receive a notice when your order ships.  See our UPS map below!
 
 
  Expedited Shipping:

At Roses and Teacups, we understand about last minute tea parties, forgotten gifts, and sudden inspirations.  If you need expedited shipping, we will do our absolute best to accomodate!  Please call us toll free at 866-99TCUPS, or email us at info@roses-and-teacups.com to inquire.
 

Beautiful, beautiful gifts take time to create.  Roses and Teacups supports cottage industries.  The lovely artists who custom make many of our items just for you require several weeks to create these treasures.  We appreciate your patience!  If you need something by a certain date, be sure to plan ahead! 

 
  Shipping Table:
 
Our Shipping Price Table for UPS shipping within the continental US is listed in the table below.  We reserve the right to invoice for additional shipping for AK, HI, and PR.   
 
$6.95 USD $0.01 USD - $19.99USD
$9.95 USD $20.00 USD - 59.99 USD
$12.95 USD $60.00 USD - $99.99 USD
$16.95 USD $100.00 USD - $199.99 USD
$19.95 USD $200.00 USD - $249.99 USD
 
Please be aware... 

Our automatic shipping calculations are only accurate for orders up to $249.99.  Larger orders, especially porcelain, usually require a shipping fee of 10-15% of the total order.  We are able to offer FREE shipping on Royal Patrician orders of $350 or more.  For larger orders, please call for shipping estimates. 
 

Our items ship to you from all over the US where they are painted, decorated, sewn, poured, embroidered, and beaded!
