Frequently Asked Questions
International customers: We are no longer shipping to the UK since Brexit. The rules and regulations for shipping there are profound, and time consuming and tedious, so it just does not make sense for us to comply. If you have a shipping address outside the UK, we can ship there. If you are from the UK and place an order on our site, we will refund you

- What are your shipping policies? Is there a way to lower shipping charges?
We also can ship by UPS which can be cheaper, primarily for people in the western third of the country.
If your shipping charges are holding you back from ordering with us, send us an email or call us with what you want to order, and we will see if we are able to find a less expensive option. Some items, like books and DVDs, may be able to be shipped by Media Mail, another source of savings to you.

PTD makes tax-free sales offerings available to qualified parties. Wholesale Reseller applicants must operate a licensed business and must be holders of a valid state or locality tax license or permit, and where applicable, a US Federal Tax ID. The Wholesale Reseller understands and agrees that if it uses any property purchased tax exempt in any manner which would not exempt the sale from sales tax, the Wholesale Reseller becomes the user or consumer of such property, and as such assumes liability for the sales tax and interest and penalty therein, if any.
Applications may be submitted for a PTD Wholesale Reseller account via a two step process:
A. Complete the Membership signup form on the PTD Online Store, filling out the optional Wholesaler area.
B. In addition to the online membership sign-up form, Wholesale Reseller approval requires that a photocopy of your vendor's license be on file for our records - this may be faxed to us in the US at 419-491-1831 or sent via USPS mail to Patsy Thompson Designs, Ltd., 1590 Albon Rd #32, Holland, OH 43528, USA.
