Shipping
Charges
Because of the wide variety
of automotive products we ship, we do not determine shipping charges until the
items are actually packaged for shipment in our warehouse. Shipping charges are
calculated at time of shipment based on the actual package weight and
dimensions. The amount you will be billed is the carrier's standard charge. The
cost of shipping your order will be sent to you in a confirmation email message
at the time of shipment. No action is required on your part.
General Shipping
Information
Mini Mania, Inc. primarily
uses FedEx, UPS and the US Postal Service to ship orders, each of which may be
available only in certain areas. Truck freight items may be shipped using our
choice of a variety of motor freight carriers. The customer pays shipping costs
unless stated otherwise.
When choosing a shipping
method, remember that carriers charge considerably more for expedited delivery.
Expedited delivery also generally requires the package be signed for at the time
of delivery. Check with your selected carrier locally if you or your authorized
representative may not be available to sign for the package at the time of
delivery.
For some destinations, we
offer the choice of Mail (USPS). While often less expensive, remember that items
shipped via Priority Mail, while insured, are not always reliably delivered and
cannot be tracked. By choosing Priority Mail, you accept responsibility for your
order once it leaves our facility.
Customers outside the
domestic United States should exercise particular care when selecting a carrier
or expedited shipping methods. If in doubt, consult with your potential carrier
for information about shipments to your country. Import duties, local taxes,
customs charges, etc. are the responsibility of the customer.
Shipping
Schedule
Most orders phoned in to
Mini Mania before 12 noon Pacific Time are shipped the same day; orders received
later usually ship the next day. If you must receive your order by a specific
date, please make this clear when placing your order.
Most Internet orders are
processed the next business day and are shipped within 1-2 days.
If there is more than one
item in your order, we will consolidate your items into the fewest shipments
possible. Depending on availability, your order may be sent in more than one
shipment. You will be charged shipping for each shipment.
You may choose to contact us
by phone or e-mail before placing your order in order to ascertain availability.

Entering APO & FPO
Addresses Correctly
Having trouble entering an
APO or FPO address on our order form? Following these steps should help:
- Enter the recipient's full name and address
in the relevant fields.
- Enter "APO" or "FPO" in the City field.
- Enter "AE" in the State/Province/Region
field if the recipient is stationed in Europe, Canada, Africa, or the Middle
East. Enter "AA" if the recipient is stationed in the Americas. Enter "AP" if
the recipient is stationed in Asia or the Pacific.
- Regardless of where the recipient is
stationed, select "United States" from the Country drop-down menu.
Following these steps will ensure that you're charged
the correct shipping amount and that your order will be delivered in a timely
fashion. All shipments to APO/FPO addresses are sent via U.S. Priority or First
Class Mail. We estimate 5 to 7 business days for delivery once the order has
been shipped; however, some destinations may take up to 21 days.
BACKORDERS
We endeavor to stock most of the items we sell. For
Classic Minis, parts are frequently in limited supply and are difficult to keep
on hand. The automatic shipment notification email you receive will identify
backordered items and indicate the approximate date we expect to receive the
item at our warehouse. Be sure to contact us if you wish to cancel your
backorder to avoid unnecessary shipping and restocking charges once the item(s)
you’ve ordered is shipped.
