Gift Registry service for amazing toys!

picWe have gotten an interesting question about our Gift Registry service and decided to address it in our blog

Setting up a Gift Registry at Ape to Zebra is easy.

All you need to do is register as an Ape to Zebra Customer and then you can start adding your favorite toys and gear to your registry by clicking the 'Add to Wish list' button. When you view your Wish List you will see a URL on the page (bottom of your wish list). Simply copy and paste this URL into an email and you can now share your registry with all your family and friends.

When family and friends buy for you from your registry, they simply need to provide your first and last name (the person whose registry it is) on checkout (comments field) so that we can remove those items from the registry.


The question:

Is it is possible to group all the items for a specific registry together in order to qualify for free shipping.

This is a bit more difficult because we wouldn't know when everyone is "done" shopping and we may decide to ship and someone come in with a late order after we have shipped.

This is what we propose if you want to organize combined shipping for items bought from your registry:

1) Create your registry

2) Contact us via the Contact Us page and notify is that you want items from your registry combined for shipping

3) Share your registry with friends and family via email (send them the link that you see when you view your registry when logged in)

4) Also share the following with family and friends if you want to group items
  • Enter first/last name of registry holder in comments field

  • Add this comment on checkout: This item is for a registry and items needs to be combined for free shipping

  • If shipping address is in ONTARIO, please select "Pick-up at Campbellville" on shipping selection screen to avoid shipping charges. For addresses outside of ON, Ape to Zebra will refund shipping charged.

  • Complete order
5) Ape to Zebra will combine all the orders and refund shipping on individual orders if shipping address is not in Ontario. We will ask the registry owner to check in with us and monitor their registry and let us know once they think we can ship.

It will be the job of the registry owners to notify family and friends when we will be shipping and to ensure that everyone has placed their order before we ship.

If someone places an order after we have shipped we will not be able to fulfill the combined shipping offer.
