GIFT-BOX and NON GIFT-BOXED ITEMS

Should you select to add a gift-box with your purchase, the boxes in question are a standard white box with a silver bow around it; boxes will be sized to the items being shipped. Items are wrapped with tissue paper and bubble wrap, gift boxed and then packaged in a standard brown shipping box.

Should you decline the gift-boxing option, your items will be wrapped in tissue paper and bubble wrap and then placed in the standard brown shipping box with packing peanuts.

The Crystal Shoppe is, by definition, a gift store, with the overwhelming majority of our orders being gifts. As such, we have always offered the option to have your purchase gift-boxed for presentation purposes (at a nominal charge). Recently, however, we have had reason to reconsider this policy; firstly, the quality - and cost - of the gift boxes we use has deteriorated dramatically (quality) and risen sharply (cost). Secondly, our environmental conscience is rearing its head and we are growing concerned with the amount of waste and trash caused by excessive packaging. (Think of your last delivery from Amazon - a pack of razor blades encased in a shoebox.) So, while we will continue to offer the option of a gift box for most items, we would encourage you to consider carefully if it is warranted, or necessary.

Please note: Shipments to APO addresses are considered overseas shipments by the USPS. There will be an upcharge in respect of these shipments which is beyond our control. We will call/e-mail you prior to processing your order to discuss the additional shipping charges. Thank you for understanding - and for sending gifts to our troops.
