FAQs
How
do I place an order?
You may place an order online, 24 hours a day, by completing our
<link to>Order Form. You can also print this form, and fax
it to us at 312-649-0208. We'll then compute any applicable taxes
and shipping charges, and contact you with the total amount due,
plus instructions for payment. Payment is made to our U.S. bank,
via check or wire transfer. Payment is due at time of order, or
within 60 days of your event, whichever comes first.

How
far in advance do I need to order?
This depends in part upon the quantities you will be ordering. Most
items can be gift-packaged and delivered within 15 days, however
large quantities (over 100), or specialty items (such as Huichol
art or logo items) may require more time. We encourage ordering
at least 30 days prior to your event, but will advise you of any
particular time constraints at time of order.
How
will items be delivered to my meeting site?
All items will arrive completely gift-packaged, and ready for delivery
to your meeting participants. We recommend-and generally utilize
DHL or Federal Express. For larger orders, we may have one of our
representatives personally deliver the items via ground transportation,
to ensure their proper receipt.
How
much are shipping and handling charges?
All shipping charges are billed to you at cost, based on our volume
discount rates. Charges will be individually calculated, and are
based on weight, distance, and delivery time. We will provide you
with a shipping quote 2 business days of receipt of your order.
What
if an item breaks in transit?
All items will be delivered to your event site 48 hours prior to
your event. Should you discover breakage, we will replace up to
5% of your order at our expense, delivered via an overnight service
(FedEx, DHL, Mexpost, etc.). As an additional guarantee, we may
choose to ship an overage quantity, to ensure your order is complete
upon receipt.
What
if I need something that's not shown on your web site?
No problemo! There are so many unique gifts available in Mexico,
we felt it would be overwhelming to show everything. Email us your
ideas and special requests, and we'll find a source.
In addition, we work with top-quality suppliers of more traditional
items such as golf shirts, caps, tote bags, etc., all which can
be ordered with your company's logo.
Can
I have a corporate logo placed on any item?
Many of our items are ideal for showcasing your company logo-such
as our tequila shot glasses, and pewter frames. With other items,
it's more complicated, but we never want to say "no"
tell
us what you'd like, and we'll find a way to make it happen.
Will
duties or taxes be charged when the items leave Mexico?
For travelers re-entering the United States, federal law allows
you to bring in up to $400 in purchases duty-free every 30 days.
The first $1,000 over the $400 allowance is taxed at 10%. You may
bring in up to100 cigars, plus 1 liter of an alcoholic beverage
(wine, beer, or spirits), duty-free.
How
can I be assured of quality?
Items arrive at our office for quality inspection and gift packaging
prior to delivery to your meeting. This ensures you receive only
the best-quality merchandise. Our suppliers know we send back any
item that is less than perfect! Remember
your complete satisfaction
is guaranteed. Upon request, we'd be happy to ship a sample item
for your inspection.
