We carry 1:12 ; 1:24 ; 1:48 ; and 1:144 scales on our website. All items are 1:12 scale unless stated otherwise. Smaller scale items are on our Smaller Scales pages unless stated that an item comes in various scales.

Shipping Costs

We ship by Canada Post Expediated Mail. A tracking number will be emailed to you when your package has been sent. Heavy items such as dollhouses may be drop shipped from the manufacturer to save you shipping costs. Manufacturers ship by various methods which we have no control over.

The full retail value of your purchase (what you paid) will be shown on the customs declaration. Your invoice/receipt will be included in the box. If it is not included, the package may be returned to us by Customs. US & International orders may also be subjected to additional costs such as import and/or duty taxes or a customs handling fee by their government customs. This may also apply to dollhouses drop shipped from the US to Canada and other countries.  While we understand that these customs charges may increase the cost of your purchase, we have no choice but to obey the import/export laws of Canada. The amounts paid in customs charges are far less than the fines involved for both us and you if these rules are not stictly adhered to. We thank you for your understanding.

We reserve the right to ship only to VERIFIED PayPal Customers.

If you have a POBox address, please include your house address and phone number as well in the note section of your order.

How do I pay for my purchases?

We use the PAYPAL system of payment which allows you to use major

credit cards or your bank account. PAYPAL is an established and secure way to pay for both domestic and world-wide sales. They do all the currency conversions for you. We as a merchant, NEVER see your financial information so this is a safe and confidential way to purchase over the internet. At present there is no charge for setting up an account with PAYPAL.

To set up an account go to www.paypal.com    To return to this site, click the back button at the top of your screen. Be sure to bookmark us first.

We also accept Money Orders.  Money orders should be made out to DANIELLE PERRY MINIATURES.

As soon as we receive notification of payment through PAYPAL, or receive your money order, we ship your order. It's that simple.
