    Absolutely!  Famous Fashions Found only sells the highest quality name brand designer merchandise.  Each piece we offer has been obtained directly from the original designer. We have established close working relationships with designers and their representatives and we are an authorized retailer of each brand name label on our site.  You may be assured that we never offer counterfeit labels or knock-offs.

    What are my shipping options?
    We offer USPS® or UPSSM methods to ship your order. To find out when you'll receive your order based on the shipping method you select, see "When will I receive my order?" below. We ship to P.O. Boxes using USPS® Priority Mail ONLY.  International orders are shipped USPS Priority Mail® International  or UPSSM Worldwide Express.  We recommend that our international customers choose Standard shipping (USPS® Global Airmail).  This method offers speed, safety, package tracking and insurance — and is less expensive than the UPSSM Worldwide options.

    Back to top

    When will my order be shipped?
    Turnaround time varies, but we normally ship orders within 1-3 business days from the day your order was placed. The only exception to this is if you chose an item that is not immediately available for shipment or during a time of an unusually high volume of orders.  Purchases are processed in the order they are received.  There are circumstances when the popularity of an exclusive item will cause a high volume of orders to be received, slowing the processing time.  During these rare times, processing can take up to 5-7 days before your order is shipped.  You can log onto your Famous Fashions Found account at any time to check the status of your order.

    I placed my order over the weekend. Why hasn't it shipped yet?
    Orders are processed and shipped on Monday–Friday.  All orders that are received, processed and finalized before noon PST on Friday will be shipped the same day.  If the order is finalized after that time, your order will be shipped out promptly the following Monday.

     Back to top

    When will I receive my order?
    The shipping method you select will affect how long it will take for your order to arrive. During checkout, you may choose either the US Postal Service (USPS) or United Parcel Service (UPSSM) shipping methods.  We ship to P.O. Boxes using the USPS Priority Mail ONLY.  International orders are shipped USPS Express Mail International®, USPS Priority Mail International® or UPSSM Worldwide Express.

    Processing Time1 + Shipping Time = Receive Your Order
    1-3 business days + UPS™ Ground (5-7 days) = Within 6-10 business days2
    1-3 business days + UPS™ 3 Day Select (3 days) = Within 4-6 business days2
    1-3 business days + UPS™ 2nd Day Air (2 days) = Within 3-5 business days2
    1-3 business days + UPS™ Next Day Air (1 day) = Within 2-4 business days2
    1-3 business days + USPS® Priority Mail (2-4 days average) = Within 3-7 business days2
    1-3 business days + USPS® Express Mail (1-2 days) = Within 2-5 business days2

    INTERNATIONAL

           
    1-3 business days + USPS Express Mail International® (3-5 days average) = Within 4-8 business days2
    1-3 business days + USPS Priority Mail International® (4-13 days average) = Within 5-16 business days2
    1-3 business days + UPS™ Worldwide Expedited (2-4 days average) = Within 3-7 business days2
    1. On rare occasion delivery time may take longer than expected.
    2. Please note that UPS does not count weekends when calculating transit time.

    But I chose UPS Next Day Air or USPS Express Mail.  It's been 2 days.  Where is my order?
    Probably still being processed.  Most items are shipped within 1-3 business days.  However, some items require 5-7 business days to process.  Also, if you ordered a Pre-Order item, the expected availability date is shown on the product page.  When you select USPS Express Mail or UPS Next Day or 2nd Day Air, we will ship using the method you chose and you will have your item within the shipping time shown in the chart above from the time it leaves our offices.  However, Next Day Air or 2nd Day Air does not shorten the processing time in house.  If the availability is 5-7 days, the item will ship via the method you selected in 5-7 business days after your order is placed.

    But I chose Express!
    We offer UPS Next Day Air, UPS 2nd Day Air and USPS Express Mail to expedite transit times to you.  But we still require the same minimum processing time in house to get your package ready to ship.  We are working hard to get your package ready for shipment as quickly as we can.

     Back to top

    How much does shipping cost?
    Shipping charges are based on the weight of your order. Our online shipping calculator is connected directly to the US Postal Service and United Parcel Service.  During checkout, shipping charges will be calculated based on the weight and size of the items ordered as well as your location, and the various options will be listed.  The shipping default is the least expensive method.  However, you may choose whichever shipping method you prefer by checking it.  For international customers, we suggest that you choose the Standard shipping option (for USPS Priority Mail® International).

     Back to top

    How do I track my order?
    Once your order has been shipped, you will receive an email from us with links to the shipping company's tracking site, which contains information about the status and location of your order. (Please note that UPS offers detailed online tracking information.  If you choose USPS, they offer Delivery Confirmation only.)  You can also get your tracking information from our site. Simply log on to My Account, click on "View The Orders I Have Made," and your tracking information will be included in the comments section.

    Will my package be insured?
    Yes, all shipments are fully insured.

     Back to top

    Can you mark my package as a "gift" or lower the declared value when shipping to another country?
    Customs duties or taxes are the responsibility of the customer. We apologize that we cannot legally mark international packages as a "gift" when shipping out of the country. Please be aware that you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once your package reaches your country and will be collected by the delivery company.  Shipping charges do not cover these import taxes or fees. Some countries charge a large customs fee. Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be.  Customs policies vary widely from country to country.  You may wish to contact your local customs office for further information.  Or, for more online information regarding customs in your country, click here.
    Additionally, when ordering from Famous Fashions Found, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods.

    Your privacy is important to us, and we know that you care about how information regarding your order is used and shared.  We would like our international customers to be aware that cross-border shipments are subject to being opened and inspected by customs authorities. 

    We must make postal customs declaration attached to all our packages which match the prices of our online catalog. Many countries impose penalties on both the sender and receiver when customs forms include inaccurate values.  Also, your package cannot be insured against loss or damage for more than the declared value on the customs forms.

    I'm from the UK.  How will my package be delivered?
    If you choose UPS Worldwide Express delivery, your package will be cleared through UK Customs and delivered by UPS. UPS will collect any UK custom charges which may be due.  

    If you choose Standard delivery, your package is shipped via USPS Express Mail International® or  Priority Mail® International.  The USPS will deliver your package to UK Customs for clearance who in turn passes it to Royal Mail or Parcel Force for delivery. [If delivered by Parcel Force, they will collect any UK customs charges which may be due.  Packages may be tracked online at the Parcel Force website, click here.  You may enter the USPS Mail Label Number, but you must check the box indicating that the package is an "Incoming International Parcel."]

    If we are unable to authorize a charge through our Merchant Account, we will return your order to pending status. The charge will be attempted at least 3 more times over the next several days. If after 4 attempts we are unable to authorize the charge, your order will be cancelled. You may then go online and place the order again, correcting the credit card information or using a different card.

    I forgot to redeem my coupon code during checkout. Can you add it?
    Unfortunately, all coupon codes must be redeemed at the time you place your order. Please make sure that you carefully read through the instructions on the checkout pages to ensure that you have redeemed your discount code in the appropriate box.


    Can I place an item on backorder?
    Orders marked as ON BACKORDER may be placed on backorder.  Your credit card will not be charged until the time your item is ready to ship.

     Back to top

    What does it mean to "Pre-Order" an item?
    When Famous Fashions Found discovers an item in high demand and scarce supply, we offer our customers a chance to pre-order.

    • By pre-ordering you are guaranteed that the item you select will be reserved in your name.

    • Pre-orders are on a first come, first served basis.

    • You are never locked into a pre-order.  Later on, if you decide that the item is just not for you it's easy to cancel ... all you need to do is send us an email (with your name, order number and item number) and your item will be released.

    If you choose to pay by credit card, your card will not be charged until the time your item is ready to ship. (If at that time, the charge is not authorized by the credit card agency, your order will be cancelled.  We will email you with the option of reordering, if desired.)

     If you choose to pay using PayPal, PayPal processes your payment immediately (we cannot delay PayPal payments). Your item is guaranteed and will be shipped to you as soon as it arrives in stock.

    • On each Pre-Order product page, there will always be an estimated delivery date. (We state the dates provided by the designer of the specific item.)  Occasionally delays can occur.  If the date should change, we will notify you by email and/or update the product page details.

    • Once the product arrives at FFF headquarters, all pre-orders are shipped out the same day.

     Back to top


     
    What is a "Special Order" item?
    Some products are available by Special Order only and will be indicated in the product information.

    Special order items are not kept in stock and must be ordered from the designer once a customer requests the item. The time it takes for us to receive the item from the designer depends on the item ordered and the period of time needed to manufacture it. You will receive an email indicating the expected arrival time for the item.

    Full payment is required prior to us ordering the item.

    All Special Orders are non-refundable once we have ordered the item from the designer.

    • On each Special Order product page, there will always be an estimated delivery date. (We state the dates provided by the designer of the specific item.)  Occasionally delays can occur.  If the date should change, we will notify you by email.

    • Once the product arrives at FFF headquarters, all Special Orders are shipped out the same day.

    What does it means when my order summary shows an item is on "Hold"?
    If an item ordered is a Pre-Order, is on Backorder or is not immediately available for any reason, your order will be placed on "Hold" until the item is in stock and can be shipped to you.  Your credit card is not charged while the item is on Hold.  The charge will be made once the item is in stock and is ready for shipment.

     Back to top
     

    What happens if an item I order is out of stock or is no longer available?
    Every attempt is made to be sure that the offerings on our website reflect our current inventory accurately.  However, there may be times when the inventory has not been updated and an item you ordered is either temporarily out of stock and/or no longer available.  When the happens, we will contact the designer to determine if the item can still be obtained from them.  If it is available, we will arrange to have the item shipped to us as quickly as possible.  Your credit card will be refunded for that item until it is back in stock and can be shipped to you.  (No additional shipping charges will apply.) 
     
    If an item you ordered is no longer available from the manufacturer, your credit card will be fully refunded for that item.  The remainder of your order will be shipped to you immediately.
     
     Back to top

    What is required to exchange an item?
    Exchanges are simple. We only require that the item be postmarked within 14 days from the date on your invoice. You must pay for the return shipping to us, but we pick up the tab the other way! Mark clearly on the package:

              Famous Fashions Found
              Attn: EXCHANGE
              869 E. 4500 South, Ste. 302
              Salt Lake City, UT  84107

    Once your exchange is received we will email you a notification that your exchange is being processed.  We ship exchanges via UPS Ground.  Exchanges usually take one to two weeks upon receipt to be processed and shipped back to you.  If the size or color you request is no longer in stock we will issue you a refund.  Please keep in mind that refunds can take 2-4 weeks to process and depending upon your credit card issuing company may take 1-2 billing cycles to appear on your statement.


    What if I receive the wrong item?
    W
    e make every effort to ensure that the correct items are shipped to you. However, sometimes mistakes do happen. If you receive the wrong item, you must contact us  (info@famousfashionsfound.com) within 14 days from the invoice date. We will email a prepaid return UPS label to ship the wrong item back to us.  The correct item will be shipped to you at our cost.

    Are there any items which may not be returned or that are considered final sales?
    Yes! It is important that before you purchase you are aware that some items are final sales. No returns can be accepted for sale or clearance items, jewelry, handbags, hats, intimate apparel or custom orders.

     Back to top

    What is required to return an item I purchased?

    No "RA" numbers required here!  But it is imperative that the following requirements be met when sending a return:  All packages must be postmarked within 14 days from the date on your invoice. We hope that you enjoy your purchases and trust that if you do need a return and/or exchange, you will be sure to keep the 14-day time limit in mind.

    All items must be in their original condition with their original tags attached. To avoid refusal of your return, we recommend that you use care in re-packaging the item; i.e., use the original packing materials, protective plastic, no loose hangers, etc. to avoid damage to the items in transit.  Items must be returned in a cardboard box only. A copy of the invoice should be included to insure proper credit.  We recommend that you insure the package and use a safe carrier.  We are not responsible for packages that are lost or stolen in transit.

    Some items are not returnable: Returns/Exchanges cannot be accepted for sale* items (items marked with an asterisk), jewelry, custom orders, intimate apparel, swimsuits or items past the allotted return time of 14 days. Please note: all jewelry, hats, handbags and items purchased from our sale* items page are considered final. No returns will be accepted. (If you wish to exchange a sale* item for another size, we will be happy to process your exchange per availability.)  Items returned to us that were purchased as final sale items will be returned to you at your cost.

    For further details, please see our Returns/Exchanges page.
