Purchase Terms & Conditions
We’re a small business with a big heart, but we also need clear rules to serve you fairly. The following terms apply to all purchases and returns.
​
1. General
We’re a small team working hard to bring you products we believe in. Product availability and pricing may occasionally change, but we do our best to keep things updated in real time. For wholesale or retail orders (B2B), the same terms in Section 7 apply, which are also outlined in our Sales & Return Policy.
​
2. Payments
We accept most major credit cards and online payment options. Payments are securely processed because protecting your information is important to us.
​
3. Shipping
We pack and ship orders with care, usually within 1-3 business days. As a small business, we rely on third-party carriers, and while we can't control delivery times, we’re always here to help if any issues arise. Wholesale or retail orders (B2B) will receive estimated shipping timelines upon order confirmation. Bulk orders may require additional processing time.
4. Returns and Exchanges
We want you to love your purchase! If something isn’t right, please contact us at info@bonesisback.com. Returns are accepted only under the conditions stated in our Sales & Return Policy, which includes unopened/unused items, a 20% return handling fee as outlined in that policy, and customer responsibility for return shipping. We kindly ask for your understanding that, as a small business, our return and exchange processes might not be as fast as larger companies – but we promise to handle every request personally and fairly.
B2B (retail and wholesale) orders are final and non-refundable. Returns or exchanges are only accepted if items arrive damaged or defective, with claims submitted in writing to info@bonesisback.com within 7 days of delivery along with photographic proof.

Sales & Return Policy
Thank you for supporting Bones and Friends! As a small company, we pour our heart into every product and genuinely care about your experience. Your support means everything to us, and we strive to provide quality and care with every order. We kindly ask that you read the following return terms and conditions carefully before making a purchase or return. These policies help us continue serving you while ensuring we manage our resources responsibly.
1. Sales and Returns
All sales are considered final. As a small business, we operate with limited resources, but we understand that sometimes things don’t go as planned. In rare and exceptional cases, returns may be accepted under the following conditions:
1. The item(s) must be unopened, unused, and in their original condition.
2. Approved B2C returns are subject to a 20% handling fee to cover processing, restocking, and handling costs.
3. Customers are responsible for return shipping costs.
B2B (retail and wholesale) orders are final and non-refundable. Returns or exchanges are only accepted if items arrive damaged or defective, with claims submitted in writing to info@bonesisback.com within 7 days of delivery along with photographic proof.
2. Return Authorization
To initiate a return, please contact us at info@bonesisback.com. We're happy to work with you, but please note that returns without prior authorization cannot be accepted. This return authorization process applies only to individual (B2C) customers. B2B customers must notify us of damaged or defective goods within 7 days of delivery, as stated above.
3. Refund Processing
Once the item(s) are received and inspected, a refund (total value product(s) purchased minus the 20% handling fee) will be issued to your original payment method. We ask for your patience – please allow up to 10 business days for the refund to reflect in your account. Refunds are not applicable to B2B retail or wholesale orders unless items were reported as damaged or defective within the required time frame.
We truly appreciate your understanding and support. As a small company, every transaction matters, and we are grateful for your cooperation. If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out to us at info@bonesisback.com – we’re always happy to help.

Bones Care & Safety Guidelines
At Bones & Friends, product safety is our top priority. We understand the responsibility that comes with creating toys for children and families, and we are committed to delivering products that meet the necessary safety and quality standards such as the ASTM F963 (American Society for Testing and Materials) and CPSIA (Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act). Download the safety information sheet.
​
1. IMPORTANT: Handle Bones with Care
The Bones figure is designed with movable joints for easy posing and gentle play. The joints are engineered as snap-fit systems to avoid using screws and make the figure safer for children. Joints may detach. They can be safely reattached. In particular, the neck, shoulders, pelvis, and hips are delicate, move-only joints (not intended to be removed). Handle with care, and do not attempt to detach or reattach joints that are not intended for that. Pressing, squeezing, or excessive force may cause damage, cracks, or breakage of the Bones figure.
​Bones is here to bring smiles, not stress - so thank you for keeping the fun safe by treating him with care! Sure, he’s a skeleton, but you can see his heart - a reminder he’s sensitive and needs gentle handling.
​
2. To Avoid Damage or Injury
-
Move joints slowly and carefully
-
Never twist, push, pull, or bend joints beyond their natural limits
-
Do not throw, drop, or sit on Bones. Avoid any play that places extra pressure on the figure
-
Young children must always be supervised during play
-
Bones is intended for indoor play and display only
-
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD — Small parts. Not for children under 4 years.
This product complies with U.S. toy safety standards ASTM F963 and CPSIA.
