• Custom/personalized orders CANNOT be returned (unless I made an error). Please refer to the "Payment Policy -- Custom & Personalized Items" section in my shop policies.
• If an AmySueCrafts item is damaged/broken after purchase due to misuse, improper handling/cleaning, or the attempt to alter the piece, it cannot be returned. Please follow the care instructions listed on your order invoice, and *never* swim or shower with any of my items (e.g., stamped penny necklace).
• If an AmySueCrafts item breaks during normal use, please contact me immediately. Please also be prepared to provide me with PHOTOS of all of the damaged/broken items/pieces and to possibly return the items/pieces to me (at my cost, if determined to be a defect). Do *not* throw anything away without first consulting with me; I cannot make a replacement without proof of a defective item.
• I carefully test ALL items prior to shipping (i.e., I try to break them!). Your item should not break under normal use circumstances, but defects can happen. I also take photos of ALL items that I create prior to shipping (as proof of what was shipped in the event of a USPS insurance claim, for possible use in future listings, and for comparison in the event of a possible defect).

Frequently asked questions
Can I make a change to this item listing OR have something added to it?
If what you want isn't offered in one of my listings, PLEASE CONVO ME about a custom order. I'd be happy to make something similar for you.
Pretty much all of my listings are customizable. However, if you would like to make a change / addition to an existing listing and there is no option for what you want listed in the item description, please send me a message/convo ***FIRST***. I might need to set you up with your own special custom listing (which is easy!).
If you have an idea about making something else totally different, I accept custom orders as well. Just send me a message/convo.
Please don't request additions to an existing order after payment. Extra stamping usually costs extra, so start with a custom request instead.
Can you stamp something on the BACK of my penny/dime, too?
I do *not* stamp on both the front & back of any single penny or dime. Stamping on one side causes a slight "smudge" in the metal on the opposite side (because the metal is soft). If you stamp on both sides of the coin, one side of the stamped characters ends up slightly distorted. The only way to avoid this is to stamp the characters *very* lightly (i.e., not stamped very deeply), which means they don't show up very well, even when darkened in. Thanks for understanding.
How long will it take to make my item?
Handmade Takes Time. Production time for each item is listed in the item's description (Item Details tab) AND under the Shipping tab. (These tabs must be clicked to open if using a Smart Phone.)
Production time is how long it takes to create your item BEFORE shipping. Each item is handmade TO ORDER, except for the few items marked "ready to ship" (https://www.etsy.com/shop/amysuecrafts?search_query=ready+to+ship). Production time does not include weekends or holidays.
If you need something made faster than the stated production time, please message/convo me about RUSH Production options, availability, & fees. During busy times, RUSH production may not be available. And some items are not able to be rushed due to how they are made.
How long will it take to get my item?
Please refer to the above FAQ for info. on production time (how long it takes to MAKE your item).
After your item is created, it ships by USPS. Most items include the option to upgrade to USPS Priority Mail shipping (2-3 days typical delivery), which is faster than regular shipping.
Please remember that I have no control over how long it takes for an item to reach you after I ship it. I don't work for USPS or have control over potential delays. Regular shipping can take 3-7 days AFTER your item is made. Priority Mail is faster (2-3 days typically), but it isn't USPS guaranteed.
In rare cases, I will ship by USPS Priority Mail EXPRESS, which is guaranteed delivery (usually overnight or 1-2 days, depending on where you live).
Do you make your items ahead of time with an engraving machine?
All of my custom hand-stamped items are made TO ORDER at the time you place the order. Custom hand-stamped items are not pre-made ahead of time, so they can be customized to your requested personalization.
All hand-stamped items are stamped by me, by hand, with a hammer, one letter/number/character at a time. Spacing between, and depth of, letters, numbers, characters, hearts, etc., may vary slightly within and between items. These small variations add to the charm and unique nature of each piece. They are not imperfections.
My items are not engraved by machine. They are lovingly stamped BY HAND by me (Amy). Hand-stamping is deeper than engraving, too. My items are rustic and natural, not perfect. No two pieces will ever be identical!
How do I know when my item has been shipped, and what if it gets lost by the Post Office?
Once an item is shipped, you will receive an Etsy convo with the shipping date and USPS Tracking™ information to help determine roughly when your package will arrive.
USPS Tracking™ is not insurance. USPS insurance coverage is available and offered for every item. If you choose not to insure a package & it is lost, stolen, or damaged in transit, no refund options are available from USPS or from me.
If USPS shows an item as having been picked up from me and it (1) is never delivered or (2) is marked as delivered to your address but you did not receive it (e.g., misdelivered), you will need to contact your local Post Office for assistance.
I will gladly help you research late/lost packages. Just convo me.
Can You Add A Handwritten Gift Note to My Order?
Yes. AmySueCrafts offers 4 different add-on gift note card options. Please click below to view the options:
