Shipping

Orders usually ship within 1-2 business days via USPS Economy Mail, First Class Mail, and Priority Mail, Economy Mail has no tracking option, orders placed by 11 am CT during weekdays usually ship the same day (We do not have weekend service for USPS as an option). When you place your order, please allow time for processing in addition to the time it takes for the package to get to you once it has shipped. Once your order is shipped you will receive an email or two with any tracking information if available — you can check the order status by logging into your account. Keep in mind the USPS service guarantee is suspended if delays are caused by bad weather or other disasters. We may not always be able to ship to some mail forwarders and/or PO Boxes depending on location or if there are known fraud/theft issues with a specific mail forwarder.

For all international orders, you are responsible for any VAT, tariff, duty, taxes, handling fees, brokerage charges, customs clearance charges, etc. required by your country for importing consumer goods! USPS First Class Mail and Express Mail are eligible for these fees. There is no way for Mini Mods (the shipper) to predict your country’s customs/fee habits, so be prepared to pay full VAT on the fully declared value of your order as well as any customs fees your country USPS and/or postal system may charge you! Some services can estimate the duty/taxes, while they’re not 100% accurate they can be helpful (Duty/Tax Calculator). Keep a printout of your email receipt as you may have to send a copy to your customs office or for USPS. If you do not pay the required brokerage fees, VAT, tariff, duty, taxes, handling fees, customs clearance charges, etc – we cannot issue any refunds.

Our shipping system is completely automated, and we cannot falsify customs forms. The customs forms will accurately describe the contents and cost of your order. We cannot mark orders as “gift”, “sample”, “educational” or lower the values.
