Shipping Policy
SkatingDesigns now provides free shipping within the United States using priority USPS mail with a minimum order of $125. Other destinations and shipping options incur a fee. The standard shipping rate fee is based upon the total sales price and the country of destination. The more you purchase, the better shipping rate you receive. Once an order item has been shipped, the customer will receive an email that contains the tracking number for the order.
Shipment to an address other than the customer's billing address is possible. To generate the correct shipping costs in such cases, please click on the Shopping Cart and then the Calculate Shipping link to set the correct shipping address.
Coupons/Gift Certificates
Coupons can be used if the shopping cart contains at minimum of $100 not including shipping costs. Coupon values are only applied to item costs, but not shipping costs. Gift certificates do not require a minimum dollar amount in the shopping cart to be accepted. Note however, if the cart amount is less than the gift certificate value, the customer will lose the difference. Gift certificates are applied to item costs, but not shipping costs. In order to process payments with coupons/gift certificates, the total shipping cost may be spread across items purchased because PayPal, Stripe, and Venmo do not allow a $0.00 amount on any item purchased.
