★ I do ***NOT*** use INK, PAINT, or ENAMEL to darken in the stamped letters and characters on my hand-stamped gold-plated & silver-plated vintage flatware (spoons, forks, knives, serving utensils, etc.). I use a FOOD-SAFE oxidation process. And stamping on my gold-plated flatware is NOT darkened in at all. Please refer to my listings for specific details. Health and safety are important to me.

★ AmySueCrafts accepts all major credit cards as well as PayPal. Please note, debit card and eCheck payments made through PayPal *may* take 3-5 business days to clear the bank; production time on your item will *not* begin until the payment has cleared. Contact me if you have questions or need assistance.

★ ALL penny keychains come with your choice of (steel) keychain color: Antique Copper, Silver, or Gold.

★ ★ ★ All of my items are created in a SMOKE-FREE (but NOT pet-free) environment. Please forgive me if you find an occasional cat/dog hair stuck in the packing tape on your box/envelope/package; my fur babies often like to "help" me work.

★ Current production time on MOST items remains 3-5 business days PRIOR to shipping. Production time does not include weekends or holidays. However, some items have a 5-7 business day or 1-2 week production time PRIOR to shipping, so please refer to the item listing for full details.

• 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).
