Shipping Terms

Maders Trains uses USPS Exclusively for all shipments leaving our shop 

Domestic Orders
 
Maders Trains bases all shipping charges off a Flat Rate which is calculated from your order total. If your order contains all small items and ships for less, you will be credited for the overpaid shipping charges.

Flate Rate Shipping Charges are as follows:

• Order Totals of $0.01 - $50.00 ~ $5.55 Flat Rate
• Order Totals of $50.01 - $100.00 ~ $7.95 Flat Rate
• Order Totals of $100.01 - $150.00 ~ $9.95 Flat Rate
• Order Totals of $150.01 - $200.00 ~ $11.95 Flat Rate
• Order Totals of $200.01 and up ~ $13.95 Flat Rate

All orders containing small items that can fit into a small-to-medium size box will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail. All other larger orders which require larger boxes will be shipped via USPS Parcel Post.

You may have your larger orders shipped via USPS Priority Mail or Express Mail if desired. Flat Rate Shipping Charges still apply, and we will let you know the additional shipping charges for the upgraded shipping service.

A tracking number for the package will be added in the order notes after it has been shipped which can be accessed by viewing your order history on our website. 

Domestic Insurance
 
All Domestic Orders will have Shipping Insurance based on the order total added free of charge. Maders Trains is not responsible for lost or damaged packages due to the mis-handling of the carrier; all claims must be taken up with your local Post Office. We strive to pack and ship all of our products safely and to try to prevent damage where ever and whenever we can. 
 

International Orders

While International Orders are always welcome, buyers just please note that shipping can be expensive. Flat Rate Shipping applies on International Orders as well. All International orders will be charged actual shipping and the amount paid for Flat Rate Shipping will be subtracted from the actual shipping costs for your order. You must contact us and let us know the country in which you reside and will give you a shipping quote for your order.

Rates for International Shipments start at:

• Order Totals of $0.01 - $50.00 ~ $5.55 Flat Rate
• Order Totals of $50.01 - $100.00 ~ $7.95 Flat Rate
• Order Totals of $100.01 - $150.00 ~ $9.95 Flat Rate
• Order Totals of $150.01 - $200.00 ~ $11.95 Flat Rate
• Order Totals of $200.01 and up ~ $13.95 Flat Rate

All International orders will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail International, this includes larger orders which require larger boxes.

You may have your order shipped via USPS Express Mail International if desired. Flat Rate Shipping Charges still apply, and we will let you know the additional shipping charges for the upgraded shipping service.

A tracking number for the package will be added in the order notes after it has been shipped which can be accessed by viewing your order history on our website.
