Important Notes

Duty Charges - All shipments using Basic International and Economy International from the US to Canada are subject to Canadian duty charges. Unfortunately, we cannot determine this duty and it is completely independent of any shipping charges from Tomskey.com.

UPS Brokerage Fee - UPS charges Canadian customers a "brokerage fee" in addition to duty when bringing packages across the border.  The fee usually ranges from $40-$80USD depending on the value of the shipment. To avoid this fee, we suggest Canadian customers select USPS Priority.  Tomskey.com does not provide refunds or credits for the customs duty fee or USPS/UPS brokerage fees.

 

Delivery Details

Our Shipping Pledge

Orders received by 10:00 am EST ship the same day in most cases. We ship all orders within 2-3 business days. (Exceptions existing within key cutting processing times)

 

Expedited Shipping

Please be aware that the timeframe for all expedited shipping orders starts the products leave our warehouse, not the moment the order is placed on our website. This is due to key cutting processing times.
Dates are counted as business days. Weekend dates are not counted. 

 

Average Delivery Times

Orders shipped to the West coast usually take 1-3 business days.  Orders shipped to the East coast usually take 3-5 business days.  Orders to Canada take 4-8 business days (Excluding custom processing times which can drastically vary and take as little or as much as 1 day to 4 weeks to clear). 

 

Liability Release

Customers that use UPS My Choice, FedEx Delivery Manager, leave written notes for drivers, or an equivalent service that authorizes the release of a package when nobody is home are required to accept responsibility for any loss or damage to the package after it has been released at the address.  Proof of delivery from the courier service will serve as conclusive evidence that the package was delivered successfully and that the customer will accept any loss or damage to the package after it has been released at the delivery address.  Tomskey.com is not responsible for stolen packages and/or damage and loss when the customer authorizes the release using these services or changes the delivery address.
