Terms and Conditions

What are the Pricing Policies for this store?
Here at Allthingsanime.com we do try to match prices with all other Internet based sellers, we cannot do so for limited-availability items, such as preorder items. If the item in question is not physically in stock and available at the store to be matched, we regret that we cannot match prices. Finally, in cases where Allthingsanime.com shipping rates is significantly less than the store to be matched, we may be unable to match the price. Please compare both prices including shipping rate to determine which is the best value for you.

What steps does this company take to ensure Customer Privacy and Security?
Allthingsanime.com. has a very strict policy of not releasing personal information including name, address, email address, etc., to anyone outside our organization. Be assured, we will not sell your name or address information to anyone without your prior consent. All information gathered during your visit with us, either on the phone or on our web site, is for tracking and internal marketing purposes only. Your information will be kept confidential at Allthingsanime.com. We believe in protecting our customers' rights to privacy.  For more information, please see our privacy policy here.

What shipping / delivery options are available?
All orders are shipped USPS First Class or Priority Mail.  Most items ship within 24 hours of the time the order is received. There are times, however, because of circumstances beyond our control, when orders may be delayed. 

By law, we must charge sales tax where applicable. Currently, that means within the state of Colorado. Generally, we accept orders from the U.S. and its territories and Canada only. 

US Mail is available to APO, FPO, and SPO addresses. Further, we ship to PO boxes via US Mail only if this address matches the credit card billing address. Customers requiring US Mail service where a signature or order delivery confirmation cannot be acquired assume all liability for misdirected delivery, damage claims, and payment for the order. Orders may require verification of delivery address, so please provide a daytime phone number.

 Damages in shipment must be reported to the delivery person at the time of delivery. A shipment that has been accepted will be assumed to be in good condition. Refused shipments may be charged a service fee and/or a restocking fee as well as shipping charges. Other services such as re-routes, hold for pickup, etc., may incur additional charges. For additional information on fees or waivers of fees associated with returned items, see the Returns & Exchanges Policy. There may be times when an advertised item is sold out or in very short supply. Manufacturers, distributors, etc., cannot always predict supply and demand figures. Delivery dates may depend on suppliers and, therefore, lie beyond our control. We will do our best to always have every item in stock and to notify you if an item you have ordered has become sold out or in short supply. Pictures of items in all of our advertising (print or web) are typically accurate, but because manufacturers do not always notify us of changes, the actual products shipped may vary slightly. Occasionally, we may ship items from multiple warehouse locations; therefore, your order may sometimes take additional time to complete.

How can I place an order without using my credit card?
We  accept PayPal for payment, through PayPal you can pay via your PayPal account, checking account or credit cards.

How does this company handle International Orders?
We accept orders from the U.S., U.S. Territories, Canada and many other countries, if your country accepts PayPal most likely we ship there.

How do I cancel an order?
To cancel an order, you must contact our customer service department either by e-mail (service@allthingsanime.com) or via telephone (866-406-3249), prior to the item shipping.  If item has been received, please see our return policy.

Returns
Allthingsanime.com stands by its products, and if anything we sell you is defective or has a problem, we're willing to send you a replacement or take the item back for a refund. However, items must be new and in sellable condition. Shrink-wrapped items (CD-ROMs, DVDs, videos, etc.) must be in shrink-wrapped form and unopened.  In the case of buying CD-ROM anime games for Windows, please verify that the games work with the OS you're (some older games don't work with Windows 2000/XP, for example).

Returns & Exchanges Policy
Before returning a defective or incorrect product to Allthingsanime.com, a customer is required to obtain a "Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA)" number. This number must be printed on the shipping label on the outside of the returned package in order for the return and exchange to be processed in a timely manner. Returns cannot be accepted without prior authorization and an RMA number which can easily be obtained by calling the Customer Support Department at (866) 406-3249. Once an RMA number is issued, it is valid for 10 calendar days; the product being returned must be received by Allthingsanime.com within the return period specified on the invoice or within 15 calendar days of the original invoice date  (whichever is shorter) and within 10 days of the RMA. The time period specified on the invoice is the time used for determining the extent of the applicable return period for each product. Return authorizations will not be issued after a stated return period has expired. Arrangements are easy if a customer follows the simple guidelines outlined here.

Be aware that returns (for exchange or refund) must be completed within 15 calendar days of the original purchase. If any product arrives in damaged condition, the customer should call the Allthingsanime.com  Customer Support Department at (866) 406-3249 within 5 days of receiving the shipment for assistance in arranging for an exchange or refund.  Generally, customers have 15 days from the date of the invoice to complete the process of contacting us, obtaining authorization for a return, and shipping the product back to us.  

The following steps outline what you can do to ensure that you get your exchange or refund as quickly as possible from Allthingsanime.com:

1. Call the Customer Support Department at (866) 406-3279 or send an e-mail to service@allthingsanime.com; give them the following information:
a) Invoice number (the number in the upper left corner of your invoice/receipt which was sent with your purchase). If you cannot locate this number, then give them the name to which the order was shipped.
b) The date on the invoice 
c) The product name and catalog number.
d) A description of the product purchased and the problem encountered. 

2. Once an RMA is issued, securely package and return your product to Allthingsanime.com. via your choice of carrier.
a) Pack the product to be returned, along with all of the originally shipped materials, in a manner that protects them from damage during shipping. Allthingsanime.com. will not give a refund or an exchange for items damaged in return shipping. The best way to ensure protection from physical damage is to use the original shipping container and packing materials in which the product arrived to you.  We rely on our customers to take proper care of returned merchandise. Once a customer receives a shipment, the product is the customer's responsibility until it arrives back in the possession of Allthingsanime.com. In some cases, damage to well packed items may occur while in the possession of a carrier. The customer is responsible for filing claims with the carrier for reimbursement of damages that occur while a package is being returned to us from the customer. At the customer's request, we may hold the package, pending inspection by the carrier, for a period up to 15 days. After 15 days, the item will be discarded, returned to the customer at the customer's expense, or donated to a local charity if usable. If a customer fails to make arrangements with the carrier within 15 days, the customer will be responsible for arranging transportation for return of a damaged item to the customer's location. Reputable carriers typically resolve such matters within a few days, so we advise our customers to select a return carrier with a good track record.
b) Include all retail boxes, materials, and manuals if applicable and parts that came with the product. Do not write on any retail box or materials. Defacing the manufacturer's packaging may void a refund or exchange. Items returned that have had the UPC code removed from the packaging are not be eligible for refund or exchange. All authorized returns must be 100% complete and sellable as new to be eligible for a refund or exchange for different product. This includes the original manufacturer's packaging, manuals, blank warranty cards, and accessories provided by the manufacturer. Retail packaging, manuals, and warranty cards that have been defaced, or have been written on, will disqualify the product for refund. (Orders that arrive to the customer with missing items or kits received by the customer that have accessories missing must be reported within 5 working days of receipt as noted above.) We reserve the right to measure and weigh an exact duplicate of the packed order (measured against the carrier's weight specifications for the shipment) and to take an inventory count in order to determine the validity of claims that any items were missing from an order that has been invoiced by Allthingsanime.com and received by a customer. We may not assume responsibility for missing items reported beyond 5 business days from the date the package was delivered. We highly recommend that customers examine the received items against the copy of the bill of landing or a copy of the invoice immediately upon receipt to ensure that no errors occurred.
c) The RMA number must appear on the shipping label on the outside of the shipping container. On the outside of the shipping label, write the RMA number that you obtained from the Customer Support Department, your return address, and the following address:
All Things Anime
1108 Scarlet Oak Drive.
Colorado Springs, CO  80906
If asked for a phone number on the shipping label, use: 866-406-3249.

The RMA number should NOT be written on the manufacturer's retail packaging.  Do not write on the manufacturer's packaging or on the product with a permanent marker or pen as this may void the refund/exchange.
d) Take the packaged product to the U.S. Post Office, UPS, FedEx, or other reputable carrier. Customers are responsible for shipping charges and risk of loss on all return shipments. Allthingsanime.com assumes responsibility for shipping charges and risk of loss for original shipments and for exchange transaction shipments back to the customer. We highly recommend that our customers use a reputable carrier with the capability of providing proof of delivery (via trace numbers); Allthingsanime.com can not be responsible for lost products or products delivered to any location other than the one we specify when issuing an RMA number (i.e., the address above), so please take care to write the address correctly and legibly. We further strongly recommend that our customers fully insure all returns, including defective items being returned for exchange or refund. Allthingsanime.com cannot be responsible for products that are damaged or defaced while in the customer's possession or in transit back to us. Damaged and defaced products are not eligible for refund or exchange even if the product was defective upon delivery to a customer because additional damage or defacement can make it impossible for us to determine that a defect was present before the product was received by the customer. 
e) Please note that items returned for refund or exchange which are shipped collect (COD) to us will not be accepted. They will be refused and returned to the customer at the customer's expense.
f) In most cases, after following these steps, you should receive your replacement, exchange, or refund within seven days.


Special Notes to Customers
If a product appears to be obviously damaged when it arrives at a customer's location, it is best if the customer refuses delivery and then contacts the Allthingsanime.com Customer Support Department at 866-406-3249 so that we can make arrangements for the carrier to return the damaged product to us. This procedure allows us to more quickly replace damaged products without further inconvenience to the customer and to expedite a claim for damages with the carrier. We will arrange for replacement with an identical order to the customer upon confirmation by the carrier that the package is being returned to us. If a customer chooses to accept a package in a damaged condition, the customer should insist that the carrier note in the delivery record that the package appeared damaged when it was received. The customer MUST notify us of the damage within 5 business days of receiving the product, otherwise our normal return policy and current manufacturer's restrictions will override any claim for damage.
Opened software cannot be returned for refund or exchange. Customers are responsible for determining the compatibility of specific software with their systems prior to placing an order for software. Further, customers are responsible for determining that the product received is the product that was ordered prior to opening the software package. Compatibility issues should be researched with the manufacturer of the system (hardware) and the creator of the operating system as well as the producer of the software being bought prior to purchase. Defective software is eligible for replacement only. 


Restocking Fee Guidelines
1. No fees apply if:
a) The product arrives at our location within 15 calendar days of the invoice date AND within 10 calendar days of the return authorization date AND
b) The product is being exchanged for a product valued at no less than half the price of the product being returned - OR - the returned product has been determined by the Customer Support Personnel to be defective.
