Shipping Policy

* Items in our Designer Collections Series do not qualify for free shipping. Other items marked with an * do not qualify for free shipping, usually because of the non-standard size of the product.

Our shipping department is not a revenue producing department. The charges we charge you are what we are charged by the shipping companies (in most cases we use Priority Mail). In some cases, you may be quoted an incorrect shipping charge because the computer was unable to correctly figure your shipping charges for a variety of reasons. If the actual shipping charges are less than what you are quoted, we will automatically make an adjustment. If the actual shipping charges will be more than what you were quoted, we will contact you via email to quote you the actual charge and ask you to approve the amount BEFORE we ship. It is important that you check your email for messages from us. In addition, we will send you tracking information if it is available. If we will be unable to ship your order within three business days, we will advise you by email and give you an estimated shipping date.

Note to AKA members: We are happy to extend the 10% discount, but we are unable to combine the discount to orders that would normally qualify for free shipping. We will automatically extend to you the larger discount.

Jackite:

Marguerite's original design was the Osprey. She actually saw Osprey flying when she was a Park Ranger at False Cape State Park. She wanted to educate people on birds especially the endagered Osprey. She made a model of an Osprey out of paper. Taking a weeping willow branch from a backyard tree she taped a branch to the wings so people could see the graphics she had drawn. When she held its beak it began to beat its wings and fly and she realized she had a kite. Taking her meager earnings she began the steps to start a business. Jack, her longtime friend, helped with the design. Hence, "Jack" and "kite" made Jackite.
