When complete, please email us the company’s toll free number, so that we may verify this address and process your order as soon as possible. Or if you’d prefer, we can ship this order instead to your billing address for a more expedient delivery. Please note that your order will not be processed and your credit card will not be charged until we hear back from you. We appreciate your assistance and understanding regarding this security policy. If you have any questions or concerns, please email support@mycartoys.com or call our customer service center, toll-free, at 1-866-977-3644.
