Shipping/FAQ
Shipping Information
All orders are shipped from our workshop in Vancouver, BC.
For Canadian and overseas customers, we ship via Canada Post. Visit the Canada Post website for more information about their services.
For USA customers, we ship via USPS (orders are couriered across the border, and shipped from a USPS location in Washington). Visit the USPS website for more information about their services.
We work hard to ensure orders are shipped in a timely manner. Most orders are shipped within 1-2 business days of receiving them. We're a small company, but we do our best to make sure you get your order as soon as possible!
Return Policy
An item may be returned for a refund or exchange within 2 weeks from the day it is received by the customer. For exchanges, we will not cover the additional shipping costs incurred. We will not replace any item that has been opened, played with, dropped, damaged, or otherwise marked. In the case of a return, a refund (less the cost of shipping) will be issued once the item has been received by us and determined to be in good condition.

We love details, and kendamas are a very detail-oriented toy. Products from our shop are made one at a time, by hand, so the amount of work and care put into each and every one of our products guarantees that they're top notch. We're big fans of using rare, unconventional, and beautiful materials to make our products, so if you're looking for something special you can trust us to create it. If you are considering buying a Terra product we are proud to recommend that you simply talk to one of our past customers to find out if it's worth it. We are confident they will give us an excellent review.
