| Are these pedal cars designed for children to use or are they for collectors and hobbyists? |
| |
The pedal cars, planes, and tricycles that we sell are designed to be used and enjoyed by children ages 2 to 6, up to 100 lbs. They are steel bodied cars,
with no sharp edges, and have a lead-free finish that is safe for either your toddler or collector. |
| |
| I'm looking for a particular pedal car but don't see it on your website. Can I still order it through you? |
| |
Quite possibly, yes. The items shown on our website are ones that we normally carry but our suppliers do have other models available. Contact us
and we'll see if we can get you the pedal car that you're looking for. |
| |
| How do you ship your pedal cars and how long will it take for me to receive my order? |
| |
We ship by FedEx Ground to virtually anywhere in Canada. It normally takes 1-3 weeks to get your order to you, depending on our current stock and shipping times. |
| |
| Can I save the shipping charges by picking up my order? |
| |
Certainly. We are located in Charlottetown, PEI and arrangements can be made for
you to pick up your pedal car if you would like. SImply contact us for details. |
| |
| Why do prices seem to be higher in Canada? |
| |
At first glance, this may seem to be the case, but when you look at the final total, our prices are typically lower.
If buying from the United States, shipping fees are typically $95 or more, brokerage fees add another $50-75, an 8% duty will be added, plus GST/HST to the total, and your credit card company's
exchange rate, which is typically 2% over the posted rate. With us, there are no border hassles and no hidden fees or charges, just the price you see, plus shipping and GST/HST.

| Are these reproductions? |
| |
Some of our pedal cars are reproductions of older designs and others are new designs that have never been on the market before.
The reproductions are true to the original designs, but may be slightly different in order to meet today's safety standards. While most original pedal cars from the
60's and prior are too valuable to let kids or collectors play with, ours were built specifically for that purpose. |
| |
| Is there "Some Assembly Required"? |
| |
A few of the cars are shipped fully assembled, but most will require some assembly. Using common tools (screwdriver, small wrenches), assembly times can range anywhere from
10 to 40 minutes, (slightly longer if you only use the instructions when the finished product doesn't look like the picture on the box). We do ship all of our products with easy to follow, step-by-step instructions but whether or not you use
them or not is completely up to you. |
| |
| Where are they made? |
| |
With a few exceptions, these products are all made in China. |
| |
| I'm not comfortable ordering online and paying by credit card. Are other arrangements available? |
| |
Certainly. We can take your credit card order over the phone, or if you prefer, you can mail us a cheque or money order for your purchase. |
| |
| Are pedal cars a good choice for fundraisers or ticket sales? |
| |
Definitely! People are drawn to these pedal cars and goofy grins will be a common occurance from people passing by your display. These products are
unique, desirable, and inexpensive; making them the perfect prize for your next fundraising activity. |
