The question of Free Shipping came up recently and what happens If merchandise is returned, So here is the story: When we offer free shipping and you return the Merchandise, you must pay for shipping both ways, once when we paid to get it to you, and once when you pay to return it to us., whereupon receipt of the merchandise we will deduct the cost of the shipping charges that it cost us to get the goods to you and then credit your account less the cost of shipping the items to you.

works very hard to process and ship your order quickly. It may be impossible
to cancel your approved order, but Latoys will accept cancellation requests
made by e-mail. If your order has not been allocated, processed for shipping
or receipted to the shipper, Latoys will authorize a cancellation of
all or part of your order. This request must be made via email
to our CANCELLATION of order dept via this link.
Please do not call with this request as all requests must be received
in writing or by email. If accepted, your cancellation request will be
acknowledged by a reply email from Latoys advising you of the accepted
and processed cancellation. If we incur special order fees, handling fees,
packing expenses or shipping charges related to your order, these will
be charged to the Credit Card you provided when you authorized the shipping
of the order. If your order has shipped, a request to return rather than
a cancellation request must be made. Refused orders will be considered
as orders returned without authorization, and you will incur a handling
or restocking fee (20% of merchandise cost) in addition to shipping expenses.

incurred in sending the original shipment. If in entering your destination
address you make any addressing errors, we will later charge whatever
we must pay in correction fees to your original charge card as a separate
transaction. If your designated receiver changes the delivery address
and we incur any additional fees, these too will be charged as a separate
transaction to the charge card you authorized.
