Lost Marbles is not responsible for orders with incorrect shipping addresses Orders with incorrect shipping addresses may be rerouted or returned to Mrs. Tiggy Winkle's as undeliverable. You will receive an email alerting you. The billing party is also responsible for any additional shipping fees. Delivery may be from the original estimated date. Please allow extra delivery days for additional distances from major city centres above.
Shipping via Express within Canada typically reduces above delivery estimates by half. Lost Marbles cannot guarantee package arrival dates and is not responsible for lost and stolen packages, but we will be more than happy to assist you. Please contact us at info@lostmarbles.ca if you have any concerns regarding your order.
Express Shipping
Our standard shipping methods are pretty fast! But we recognize that sometimes a more speedy delivery is required. If you require express shipping, please contact info@lostmarbles.ca for a quote.
Shipping to U.S. Destinations:
Please note, due to unpredictable times at the Canada/US border, Lost Marbles cannot guarantee an arrival time for any packages leaving Canada. Delivery times to the U.S. can take 7-16 business days to major U.S. cities. Additional delivery days may be required for distances beyond major city centres.
Other International Orders
We currently only deliver to addresses within Canada and the United States, however, we do accept orders from around the globe as long as long as the shipment destination is within Canada and the US. Note: Lost Marbles is not responsible for shipping delays or problems once a package leaves Canada. Postal services vary from country to country, so we cannot predict when your package will arrive.
Heavy, Bulky or Oversized Products
Fun comes in all shapes and sizes! There a few items Lost Marbles ships that are unusually large, heavy or awkwardly shaped.
Due to policies of shipping companies, these items sometimes incur an additional "Oversize Fee" In order to offer these items, it is necessary to share this additional cost with our customers. If an item you have added to your cart has such a fee, you will see this additional charge on your invoice total. Please note, all oversize items are clearly marked in the item description.
Please be aware, any and all shipping charges are not refundable in the event of a return and/or exchange.
Shipping Procedures
In stock orders are shipped from our warehouse in Ottawa, Ontario next business day via FEDEX GROUND (to major Canadian city centres) or CANADA POST EXPEDITED PARCEL (for destinations beyond major cities. PO Boxes and in the U.S.) Lost Marbles uses both methods of shipping to ensure all orders arrive in the most economical and timely manner available.

Please email info@lostmarbles.ca to confirm stock levels. Thanks to our loyal Ottawa, Ontario customers, many great things leave our stores on an hourly basis. An item may be out of stock even though it is not stated on the website. Thank you for understanding our stock levels change very quickly! If you place an order that contains an out-of-stock item, it is our policy to ship the in-stock items immediately, then ship the back ordered items as soon as they arrive in our warehouse.
