How long untill my purchase is ready to ship?

Your purchase will usually ship with in 1 - 3 days of your order being placed. November -December it may take up to 5 days because of the large increase in order that time of the year.

VAT, Customs Fees, and taxes for International Customers

International customers, Etsy now collects VAT at the point of purchase for orders under the £135 threshold. I do not collect VAT. I am not responsible for any VAT that is not collected by Etsy. You will be responsible for any taxes, customs fees, VAT, or other amounts levied by your home country. Please check with your Customs office and/or Postal Service if you are concerned about possible tariffs. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR UK BUYERS! You should be prepared for the possibility of paying 20% VAT(if it is not collected by Etsy at the point of purchase) plus a Royal Mail fee of at least £8 upon receipt. Any customs and duties charges or VAT charges are the sole responsibility of the buyer.

Do you accept returns?

Yes! I accept returns as long as the item is UNUSED, returned in the same condition as it was sent, and you contact me about the return within 10 days of receiving the item. You will receive a refund of the purchase price only, shipping will not be refunded. You pay the return shipping. If your order contained "free shipping" the actual shipping costs will be deducted from your refund.

I self-insure my packages. This means each item has an extra $0.25 included in the shipping price to cover insurance. If your package is lost or damaged by the postal service please contact me right away. If your package is lost I require a waiting period of 2 weeks after the estimated arrival date for domestic packages, and 3 weeks after the estimated arrival date for international packages before refunds will be given. This waiting period is standard in the insurance industry and necessary to be sure that the package is not simply delayed. Do not wait this long before contacting me though, as there are things I can do during the waiting period to look for your package! Lost packages will be refunded in full

Why am I being charged a sales tax?

I am required by law to collect sales taxes for all purchases made in the state of Nevada. In Nevada each county charges a different tax rate. The way etsy sets up sales tax collections makes it difficult to get the correct rate charged for each individual county. To make things simple I will be charging you the highest tax rate in the state, 8.15%, after the transaction(or each quarter) I will calculate the correct percentage for your county and refund you the difference, if there is one.

The sizes are in inches. If you are not sure of your neck size you will need to measure the outside of your shirt collar, NOT your bare neck. If you usually use centimeters here is a handy converter: http://www.bing.com/search?q=convert+centimeters+to+inches&src=IE-SearchBox&FORM=IESR02&pc=EUPP_

Materials: flannel lining, thread, cotton sateen

The Declaration of Independence.

Your necktie will be hand-made by me… Hi! I’m Michelle!

The placement of the fabric pattern will vary on each tie cut because each one is cut from a different part of the fabric I purchase.
Your tie will be lined with a heavy cotton lining to make it the proper weight and hand-sewn with one long invisible seam from tip to tip. The tip lining color may vary from what is shown, but will always match splendidly.
The process of creating your tie takes about 2 hours, and leaves you with a professional quality product that I am proud to put my name on!

Neckties are about 58-60 inches long and average about 3.5 inches at the widest spot.
Skinny ties are about 58-60 inches long and average about 2.5 inches at the widest spot.

If you would like your tie longer, shorter, wider, skinnier, I am happy to accommodate! Just send me a message or leave a note on your order.

I can almost always order additional fabric to make you as many neckties as you need! If you need a larger quantity of ties than is listed, contact me!

I use a variety of fabrics to make my ties, check this listings materials list to see which was used for this tie.

Care instructions:
-Neckties like to hang, untied, when not being worn. This reduces creases and wrinkles and undoes the stress of being knotted.
-Dry cleaning is recommended.
-To remove creases spray with water and softly pat the crease smooth, then hang or lay flat to dry. Only use water! No chemicals, as they may affect the coloring of the tie. Do not iron it, ironing will make the tie flat, and that just doesn’t look good!

Shipping
Your tie will be shipped, loosely folded, in a plastic gusset bag, and placed in a heavy-weight shipping box. It may have creases when it arrives. If it does, follow the care instructions above.
Priority and Express shipping is available at checkout. Keep in mind the time it takes me to create the tie does not change, only the shipping time is reduced with these options.

My son is 6'9" and I needed an extra long tie. Michelle was great to work with. He wore it on Sunday and it was awesome seeing a tie that fit perfectly. Plus, he's so thrilled that it's patriotic!! Thank you ❤️
