What
if an item is not in stock?
Smarty
values the importance of your approaching event. We take extensive
pains to ensure that all items featured on our site are in stock at
all times and ready to ship. Occasionally, demand may exceed supply
or a manufacturer delay may occur. In those situations, we make every
effort to contact you via email or phone. Please make sure the
contact information you provide is both accurate and the best way to
reach you.
What
if something is wrong with my order?
Smarty
takes your party very seriously! As such, great effort is made
to ensure your order is packed safely and accurately. If you feel
there is a problem with the order you received, you must report it
within 3 days of delivery. Please be sure to adhere to this reporting
policy, as we unfortunately cannot investigate a delayed report. In
case of damage, all merchandise, boxes and packaging materials must
be preserved in their condition of arrival for proper inspection.
Digital photos will be required to make a claim.
Can
I return my items?
Please
read our return
policy.
Why
do I have to provide my email address?
Your
email address is necessary to identify you and communicate with you
about the processing of your order.
Do
you give out my email address to other companies?
No.
We do not sell, rent or otherwise disclose your email address to any
company. We may contact you with special offers and discounts. Of
course, you may opt out of these promotional emails by updating your
preferences within any promotional email you receive. For a complete
