Frequently Asked Questions

The questions that reach [email protected] most often, answered once. If yours is not here, ask us — we will add it.

Ordering and delivery

How long will my order take to arrive?

Handling takes 1-2 business days and standard US delivery takes 3-6 business days after that. Tracking is emailed as soon as the carrier collects the parcel and can also be checked on Track Your Order.

What payment methods can I use?

Can I return something I changed my mind about?

Yes, within 30 days of delivery, provided it is unused and in its original packaging. Email [email protected] to start; we issue a return authorisation within 2 business days and refund within 5-7 business days of the item arriving back.

Products and the shop

Is a “set of 2” really two items?

Yes. Where a listing says two mugs, two aprons or a two-count of spoons, both pieces are in the one box at the one price. Nothing on this site is sold as a single half of a pair.

Are the engraved pieces printed or actually engraved?

Engraved into stainless steel. Printed wording on cutlery comes off in a dishwasher within months, which is why we do not stock it. The listings say engraved where it is engraved.

How many players do the card games need?

Two, for the couples editions. The date-night decks and dice are designed for exactly two people and the listings state the card count so you can see how much is in the box.

What does shipping cost?

Standard US shipping is $4.75 and free from $38. The threshold is applied in the cart, not claimed on a banner and then forgotten.

Returns and visiting us

Do you ship outside the United States?

Not at present. Checkout offers US addresses only, and we would rather say that plainly than take an order we cannot fulfil.

Is there a shop I can visit?

Yes — Pygmy Hippo Shoppe at 306 N Stanley Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90036, United States, open Mon Closed | Tue-Sat 11:00 AM-6:00 PM | Sun Closed. Online orders are packed from the same shelf.
