SHIPPING COSTS


The number one question I get is "How much is shipping?"   Shipping is based on the weight and destination of the order.   To calculate shipping, please start the check out process.   For Preorder Reservations, I list shipping ESTIMATES on the bottom of the page.   After you have entered your location, the cart will calculate all your shipping options.   Please see the sections below on US SHIPPING and INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING for more specifics.  Preorder products will have shipping estimates listed below the product description. 


ORDERING

To place an order:  Add the item to the shopping cart.   Each item has a button to add the product to your shopping cart.  If the item is out of stock, you will not be able to add it to your cart.  

To check out and pay:  Go to the View Cart page.  There is a link in the upper right corner of the page.  Verify that your order is correct and click on the "Go to Check Out" Button.    If you already have an account in the CultTVman Hobbyshop, you can log in at this time.   You do not need an account to go through the check out.   On the Checkout Page, you will enter your shipping and payment information and choose from shipping options.   After submitting payment, you will see an order confirmation and receive a confirmation email.


PAYMENT

CultTVman accepts payment using credit card, Pay Pal or money order.  Please use the Shopping Cart to place your order and select payment method. We no longer accept personal checks!
  • Credit Cards: The Shopping Cart is the preferred method of purchasing for US and Canadian customers, using a credit card. Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover are accepted.   We do not store your credit card information in any way.   Card information is transmitted securely to the processing bank.  Debit Cards are handled like Credit Carts and you may see a hold on your funds in your account until we have processed your transaction.  International credit cards can be used through Pay Pal. 
  • Pay Pal: The shopping cart is fully integrated with Pay Pal. Order using the shopping cart and choose the Pay Pal option for payment.  We accept international credit card payment through Pay Pal.
  • Money Order: To submit payment using money order, use the shopping cart and select ""Money Order" and submit your order. You can then print the order and mail payment. We no longer accept personal checks.   We DO NOT ACCEPT Certified Mail! We are not responsible for any payment lost in the mail.  We no longer accept international money orders.  
Payment must be received before any orders are shipped.    We reserve the right to decline any order and cancel or refund payment.



SALES TAX

Due to changes in tax laws, CultTVman is now required to collect sales tax in multiple states, with the expectation that sales tax collection will continue to expand.    We collect sales tax in the following states:   Georgia, Arkansas, Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Jersey, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and Wyoming.  For orders shipped to other states, you are solely responsible for all sales taxes or other taxes.   


INTERNATIONAL TAXES, DUTIES, AND CUSTOMS:

International customers are responsible for all duties, taxes, and customs fees.   We do not collect any UK or EU or other VAT taxes or fees.  You are fully responsible for any import duties, taxes, or fees upon receipt.



PREORDER RESERVATIONS:

CultTVman allows customers to reserve specific kits prior to the product being available.    When you place a preorder, you commit to buying the product at a later date when the item is in stock.   You do not submit payment until we contact you when the product is expected to be in stock.  Please follow these simple steps:
  1. Login in on the My Account page
  2. Add the item to the cart.
  3. The price for the preorder item will be $0.00 and there will be no shipping charges.
  4. Submit your order.
  5. We will contact you when the item is expected to arrive to submit payment. We will provide a specific link so you can pay on line with credit card, Pay Pal or you may mail in your payment.

A couple notes about Preorders:

  • You must be registered and logged into your account to place a Preorder Reservation.  Go to the My Account page.  If you have problems logging in, please reset your password.
  • We will contact you for payment at the time the product is expected to ship.   You will need to pay for your at that time.
  • Your account must be in good standing to place a Preorder.  If you don't pay for your Preorder Reservations, we will not accept further Preorders from you.
  • Shipping dates listed in the product description are only estimates and may change due to various reasons.
  • Duplicate Preorders will be deleted.
  • Shipping costs are subject to change.
  • You do not pay for the products until they are ready to ship.
Preorder Deposits - For some preorders, we require a deposit.  This deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable.   If we can not fulfill the order, deposits will be refunded.

Cancellation of preorders - we understand that you may need to cancel a preorder.   We accept cancellations up until the time we request payment.   Once we have sent out payment notices, we have purchased and paid for a kit for you and it is too late to cancel.   Prior to that, if you wish to cancel, send an email or enter a ticket on the Contact Us page.

If you are unable to place a preorder, it is likely because you did not pay for a previous preorder.   Please contact us to resolve this.   


U.S. SHIPPING

  • We ship using United States Postal Service (USPS) , United Parcel Service (UPS) and FedEx.  
  • Shipping Time -- Most orders are shipped in 1 to 2 business days.   Orders are not processed or shipped on Saturday or Sunday, or major US holidays.  You can choose from a number of shipping rates.
  • We do not guarantee delivery dates. Once a product is shipped, it is out of my control. Orders may be delayed in shipping for many reasons.
  • Shipping Confirmation and Tracking - You will receive a shipping confirmation email with the tracking information after we have mailed your order.   Tracking is not always accurate.   Please do not worry if your package is not where you expect it to be.   Packages go to different distribution and sorting facilities.
  • Signature Delivery - we may add signature delivery to your order at our discretion.  This helps us ensure you actually receive the products you ordered.
  • Priority Mail is best for US orders and should arrive in 3-5 days.  Large packages  ship Priority due to size and weight.   In rare cases, we reserve the right to ship UPS Ground or USPS Ground Select when Priority Mail is deemed excessive and will pass along the savings to the customer.
  • Ground Select replaces First Class and Parcel rates.   We offer first Ground Select for flat items such as decals, photoetch, small parts, and some magazines.   We also ship larger packages Ground Select, but it will take longer to arrive.
  • UPS Ground - We recommend UPS Ground for shipping most packages larger that a cubic foot (12 x 12 x 12).
  • FedEx - We offer FedEx as an alternative shipper if you prefer.




INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING  - updated July 1, 2021

  • UPDATE:  International orders:  We do not collect any UK or EU or other VAT taxes or fees.  You are fully responsible for any import duties, taxes, or fees upon receipt.
  • IMPORTANT! - International orders may be subject to additional duties, fees, and taxes.   The customer is responsible for these.   We do not collect duties and taxes for other countries.   These are outside of our control.  
  • IMPORTANT! - International shipping may take up to 12 weeks.   Most orders arrive in 3 to 4 weeks.  However there are times when delivery can take longer, up to 12 weeks.   International shipping is unpredictable and tracking is not always accurate.  Packages may be held in customs and tracking may not reflect that. Our experience is that your package will arrive.       If your order has not arrived after 3 weeks, please contact your local post office.  The package may be held up up for duties or taxes.   For these reasons, we cannot take further action until 12 weeks after your order has shipped. 
  • We ship all orders through the United States Postal Service (USPS).   International orders are sent Air Mail.  We do not offer surface shipping.  We have had very good results shipping with the USPS with minimal damage or lost product.   
  • Customs Forms and Duties - Do not ask us to mark orders as "gifts" or misrepresent the value of the product.  Fraudulent information may cause your order to be confiscated by customs agents.  You are responsible for all customs duties.
  • Shipping Time -- Most orders are shipped in 1 to 2 business days.   Orders are not processed or shipped on Saturday or Sunday, or major US holidays.  You can choose from a number of shipping rates.
  • Delivery Time -- Most orders arrive in 2-3 weeks.   Please note that international shipping is out of my control and may take up to 12 weeks, depending on where the order is being shipped. Sometimes orders are stuck in customs. Sometimes the Post Office screws up!
  • We do not guarantee delivery dates. Once a product is shipped, it is out of my control. Orders may be delayed in shipping for many reasons.
  • Order Tracking - Some, but not all, international orders have some tracking, depending on the destination.   Tracking information is not always accurate.   Allow 8 weeks for delivery.

ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS
  • Models are kits: All model kits come unassembled. You must build and paint them yourself. Model kits may contain small parts and are intended for ages 15 and up.
  • About Resin kits: Resin models require advanced modeling skills and some safety precautions. Wear a mask when cutting or sanding resin kits! It is not uncommon to have flaws in the castings such as air bubbles or chips. You may have to do a bit of extra work to prepare the parts.
  • Imperfections on packaging do not constitute damaged product!  Some boxes may have minor creases or other imperfections.  We will not replace kits with minor flaws in the boxes.
  • I'm not in the business of selling products as "collector's items."  All products are sold with the understanding that they will be opened and used by the buyer.
  • Minor air bubbles or other flaws in resin kits are normal and may require a little extra effort on your part. These are not damaged kits!
  • All items are in stock, unless they specifically say OUT OF STOCK. There may be rare occasions when an item sells out before I can remove from the site. If that is the case, I will notify you and we'll discuss how to proceed with the order. 



REPLACEMENT/MISSING PARTS

We realize that some products may have damaged or missing parts and will do our best to resolve the problem. This means, you may have to return the product to us for replacement. In many cases, we do not have multiples in stock and may not be able to provide a replacement and may have to offer a refund.  We have a 30 day return policy.

Many items are produced in limited numbers or are discontinued. Replacement parts are simply not available.

The major plastic model kit companies offer parts services. Please see the following web pages for further information

RETURNS 

You may return items within 30 days for a full refund or replacement if you are not satisfied for any reason. You will need to return the complete product with the packaging.    Replacement is subject to product availability and, at our discretion,  we may issue a refund instead of providing a replacement.  We do not refund shipping costs on returns unless the product is defective.

We will only cover the cost of return postage if the product is defective.   Realize that we may make mistakes in shipping and will take the appropriate actions to resolve any errors.

Please check your purchases to ensure nothing is missing or damaged. 30 days is plenty of time to review your purchase.
