Product selection for this website:
This site features many of our favorite and most popular products. At our stores we have been testing toys for over a decade. We carry thousands of items from hundreds of manufacturers and we are constantly reviewing the success of each one. We track each toy against others in the same category, we gather feedback from our customers and we engage many young testers to thoroughly examine the "play value" of our products.

Request recommendations for perfect gifts:

If you would like our assistance in selecting gifts, please e-mail customerservice@timbuktoys.com. We will need to know the age of the child, the gender, if there are special interests or preferences and the price range you are seeking.  If you prefer to discus your questions by phone please contact either of our stores to speak with one of our knowledgeable sales people. (303-756-2522 or 303-366-1755) 

Comments about Products:
I loved it.”  “It was the greatest gift ever.”  “It was the hit of the party.”  “It was a disaster.”
We want to hear about your experience. If you purchased or received a toy from us that made a real impact, please tell us the story. Letters from children are always cherished!  Constructive criticism is truly appreciated as well.

Send us your suggestions for toys to carry:
We welcome your input about our selection and invite you to send us recommendations. Finding new items that fit our standards is our perpetual quest. We love suggestions from our customers! Just send an e-mail to customerservice@timbuktoys.com with the name of the item, who makes it or information about how we can find it.

Gift-wrapping:
Gift wrapping is always FREE!  Our gifts are as fun on the outside as they are on the inside. We wrap in colorful papers and adorn each package with a festive bundle of curled ribbons.  From our wrapping selection menu you can indicate if the gift is for a Birthday Boy, a Birthday Girl, a New Baby or for Christmas or Hanukkah.  Our wrapping is our Timbuk Toys signature. It's worth a fortune - and it's yours for free!

Note: We cannot put gift wrap on oversized items that ship in their original shipping boxes.

Pre-Purchase:
Normally we never charge a credit card until we have the item in hand, ready to ship. However, for high-demand items that are of limited supply, we will allow pre-purchase. By pre-purchasing, you will pay for the item in full, which will reserve the item when we receive stock. Pre-purchases are based on first-come, first-serve. If you give us a cancel date, we will cancel or your order as of that date and reimburse your credit card with the purchase amount.

Shipping:

Timbuk Toys will NEVER charge a customer's credit card until the products you order are in our warehouse ready to ship. If we are waiting for incoming product to fill your order, we will notify you by e-mail of the expected delay.

Shipping Charges: Shipping charges are added to your order on the check-out page. Shipping fees are based on the total price of your order, the shipping destination, and include oversize fees on applicable items.

Preview Shipping Charges: To see the cost of shipping, add items to your shopping cart, go to check-out, enter your personal information as required, and you will then see your order invoice that includes the shipping fees. If you decide to void the order at this point, you can delete all items from your shopping cart and the order will be erased. You will not have “completed purchase” or given any credit card information. ** Note: Though you will be required to register with our site, your personal information is never sold or shared outside our company and you can opt-out of our mailing list if desired.

We hope that every item purchased at Timbuk Toys will be a great success!
But if a purchase needs to be returned we will gladly take back items according to these guidelines.


Store Returns vs. Mailed Returns:
Whether you are returning a purchase to one of our stores or sending it back by mail, the principles are the same but some of the procedures are different. Returns can be made in person at our stores or by mail regardless of whether the purchase was from a store or from our website. Details for each type of return are noted under each heading.

Refunds or Store Credit will be issued as soon as the returned item has been received and inspected.
Shipping fees are non-refundable.

Returns of Defective Items
Please notify us as soon as possible if you receive a defective item so we can remedy the issue with your purchase and report the problem to the manufacturer. Some of our manufacturers require that customers with defective items work with them directly (see below). Our 60-Day Return Limit applies to defective items, so please inspect toys carefully if you are purchasing toys to keep for later.
