A: No, We do not require a Minimum Order threshold to be met. All Orders are Welcome ;)
Occasionally you might find a product that requires a minimum amount to be ordered, due to packaging of the product. You will find this information on the respective product page for that product.

Q: Why can't I find the magnetic blinky pins anymore?

A: Most of the Magnetic Blinky Pins are obsolute due to rise in manufacturing costs on the magnetic backings. All the Blinky Pins, have been switched out to either safety pin backs, military clutch pins, or lanyard pins in an effort to keep your cost from rising on these popular pins. If you find you absolutely need an item with magnetic backing, do not hesitate to contact us, we can still have them manufactured in wholesale quantites if necessary.
There are still some very old CLOSEOUT Blinkys with these magnetic backings, as well.

Q: Since an item says it comes assorted, can I choose which colors I want?

A: Nope, because it wouldnt be fair for someone else who wanted an even assortment of colors but receives a bunch of one color because too many people demanded one or two specific colors.

Q: Does the 1 piece price mean wholesale or retail?

A: At Blinkeez.com we have tried to set Volume Pricing on all or most of our products. If only (1) quantity of an item is ordered, it is considered to be our "Retail Pricing", and you will see from each product page Volume Pricing chart the more you order the cheaper the product becomes, which represents our "Wholesale pricing". If you are a vendor and our looking at retailing our products and interested in purchasing our products in large volumes on our regular basis, you can always reach out to us and see if we can work out Special Customer Pricing.

 SHIPPING FAQs

Q: How much is Shipping?
A: Shipping Cost can vary from order to order. Shipping costs are usually determined by weight of box, how many boxes, and destination zones, and for Expedited Orders, also dimensions of boxes are taken into effect. We do add a slight shipping charge of $3-$4 to every order no matter how big or small to all orders to help offset packaging and materials fee, and high credit card fees associated with processing Credit Cards. Shipping fees are all determined by the individual Shipping Carrier chosen at checkout and not by Blinkeez.com.. You can verify these Shipping fees at their respective shipping carrier websites. Occasionally from time to time with large high volume bulky orders you might find a slight discrepancy one way or the other, and you are always welcome to have us provide a full shipping quote at any time by contacting us HERE, if you want us to re-evaluate the shipping charges on your order. ;)
