This page will answer a number of the most common questions we get about the ordering process. If we haven’t addressed your specific question here, please contact us.  We want to hear from you! We will get you answers to your questions as quickly as possible and, if your issue is one that’s been experienced by others, we will add it to the Frequently Asked Questions listed here.

If you have encountered a technical problem with this website in general or with the ordering process in particular, please send an eMail message to our Webmaster describing the type of computer equipment and browser you’re using, and the specifics of the problem, as clearly as possible. 

If you need additional assistance in ordering from us online, please eMail us or call us at 480.250.6022 and we will be happy to help you.

Q  When I click on a category [bracelets, for example], I see a number of items with thumbnail-sized pictures displayed but there are no descriptions or options (e.g., Color, Size, etc.). Where do I find that information? 

Click on the name of the item or the item’s thumbnail photo. This should bring up a larger photo of the item and a detailed description, complete with all available options. 

Q The item I want to order doesn’t show an option for something that I would like to change. How do I change it? 

It could be that that particular feature is not customizable for that item. Or, it could be that you’re looking at the thumbnail page which doesn’t display the customizing options. If the photo of the item you want to order is small and it is displayed with a number of other items on the same page, try clicking on the photo. This should bring up a larger photo along with a description of the item and whatever options are available to customize. If the feature you want to customize is not offered as an option, you can request the change you would like under “Special Instructions” during checkout. We will be in touch with you when we receive your order to let you know whether we can fulfill your request. 

Q  I want to order four individual $50 Gift Certificates to give to four different people. How do I ensure that I receive separate Certificates and not one Certificate for $200?  

The default option is to send the requested number of individual Gift Certificates in the selected denomination. Just enter the quantity (4, in this case) next to the appropriate denomination.  

Q  I want one $150 Gift Certificate. Since I need to order three $50 Certificates to reach that amount, how can I ensure, that I receive a single certificate for $150? 

If you are looking at a page with thumbnail photos of several different Gift Certificate denominations, click on the photo of the one you want to order ($50, in this case). That should bring up a larger photo and a description. Below the description is a Denomination Options drop-down. The default is to send individual Gift Certificates.  If you would prefer one $150 Gift Certificate, just click on the drop-down option box and select “One Cert-Total Amount,” then select Quantity: 3.   

Q     How do I redeem my Wish It So Gift Certificate? 

Until we can work the automated process into our shopping cart software, we’ll redeem your certificate manually. It’s a fairly simple process. Just browse our site and determine which items you would like to purchase with your Gift Certificate. Then either call us with your order or eMail us the pages containing the items you want. 

Here are instructions for eMailing us the pages (Browser: Microsoft Internet Explorer 5/0):

  • Go to the page showing the item you want

  • Locate the ‘Mail’ icon at the top of the browser window

  • Click on the arrow next to the icon to display the drop-down menu.

  • Select Send Page.

  • Or, if you don’t see the ‘Mail’ icon, select File>Send>Page by E-mail

  • An eMail window will pop-up containing an image of the page you were on:

  • In the To field, enter: customercare@wish-it-so.com

  • Change the Subject field to: Gift Certificate Item for [enter your name and Gift Certificate Number here]

  • Click on Send

  • To purchase more than one item, send multiple pages as described above.

  •  When we receive your selection(s), we will send you a confirmation and any further instructions by return eMail.

If there is still some dollar-value left on your Gift Certificate after the cost of your items and any shipping or special handling charges are deducted, we will keep that on record until such time as you use it for Wish It So merchandise or until it expires (one year after issue date).  

If your purchase exceeds the face value of your Gift Certificate, including any shipping and additional fees or taxes, then we will send you a PayPal invoice, via eMail, for the balance. Once that’s been paid, (it comes with easy, step-by-step instructions) we’ll ship your order immediately. 

Q     What are the equivalent measurements for the Size options?  

The chart below shows the neck and wrist measurements that correspond to the listed sizes. Please remember to select the appropriate size when ordering necklaces and bracelets. If you are ordering for a child, please select X-Small and tell us the approximate measurement of the child’s wrist or neck under Special Instructions at checkout. Please be advised that beads and jewelry components can be a choking hazard to children and are not recommended for anyone under 5 years of age.

Q  How do I use the promotional code I received? 

During the checkout process, after you enter the Shipping Information, you will be prompted to enter the promotional code. The special pricing will be reflected in your final total. 

Q  Why won’t my promotional code work? 

The code may have expired or you may have typed the code incorrectly. Please check both of these things once more and, if you are still certain that the code should work, eMail us with the details and we’ll help you to order using the code. 

Q  How do I sign up for special offers and promotional codes? 

You must (a) be on our mailing list, AND (b) be a Registered Wish It So Customer.  

(a)   To be on our mailing list, just click here OR, during the checkout process, make sure that the box at the bottom of the Billing Information screen is checked where it says, “Keep me in the loop on Special Offers from Wish It So.”

(b)   To become a Registered Customer:  During the checkout process, after you have filled in the requested Billing Information and Shipping Information, you will be prompted to register so that your customer information will be automatically filled-in the next time you visit. You only need to register once in order to continue receiving Special Offers. 

Promotional codes are reserved exclusively for the use of registered Wish It So customers who opt-in to our mailing list in order to receive updates about one-of-a-kind designs, limited-edition items and Special Offers. 

Q  How do I opt-out of your mailing list? 

On our Home Page, our Contact Us page, our Customer Care page, and right here there are links to opt-out of our eMail notifications.  Simply click on any of these links, which will bring up a blank eMail with the subject line “Please remove me from your notification list.” Just click “Send” and, when we receive that message, we will remove from our mailing list the eMail address from which it was sent. (In other words, don’t un-subscribe from a different computer. In that case, we wouldn’t have the correct address to remove.)  

Q  I have a design I would like to have made up. Can you do that? 

We are always interested in discussing custom projects. Call us. Or, if you have a photo or sketch, eMail it to us with a short description of what you see as the final product. We’ll let you know ASAP if it’s something we can take on, depending on our scheduling limitations and the scope of your project. 

Q  How do I send a gift to someone? 

1.     Select the item(s) you want to send to a single recipient* and proceed to Checkout.  

2.     When you arrive at the Checkout area, you will first be asked for Billing Information (your name, address, etc.). Fill that in.  

3.     At the bottom of the Billing Information screen, you will see a text box labeled “Special Instructions.”  Type in “Gift Card Message:” and whatever brief sentiment you would like us to put on the little card we will enclose with your gift.   

4.     Just under the text box is a checkbox that says “Shipping Address is same.” UNcheck that before proceeding to the next screen. 

5.     In the Shipping Information screen, fill in the name and address of the person to whom you are sending the gift and proceed through Checkout as usual.  

Your credit card will be charged or your account debited, whichever you direct, and your purchase will be sent to the recipient with your gift-card message inside the Complimentary Gift Wrap. No receipt will be enclosed. 

*If you wish to send gifts to more than one person at a time, you can call us at 480.250.6022 or  eMail us with a convenient time and number where we can reach you and we will call to take your order over the phone.

Q  I’m running late and I need to send a gift really quickly. How do I specify a RUSH order? 

If your order requires expedited shipping (FedEx Overnight or UPS 2nd day, etc.), please add the appropriate Rush Shipping Fee to your Shopping Bag BEFORE GOING TO CHECKOUT.  

Please note, however, that the Rush refers only to the shipping once the item is ready. If your gift requires customization, it may take several days (or more if we have to order in custom materials) to prepare it. Let us know by phone (480.250.6022) or eMail if you need the gift to arrive by a certain date and time and we will do everything we can to help you out. If we need to DROP EVERYTHING! to accommodate your order, we may require an Expedited Order Fee of anywhere from $10 – $35, depending on how much our schedule is impacted.

 Q  How long does it take, normally, to process an order?

Since everything is custom-made, when you order it, you can expect your order to ship in 5 to 7 business days under normal conditions, if we have everything in stock. During holiday periods or before traditional gift-giving days (e.g. Valentine’s day, Mother’s Day, and the entire month of June!) or if we need to order custom materials, it may take longer. If your order is time-critical, eMail us and we’ll give you our best estimate of when we expect to ship. 

Q   Do you offer special pricing for bridal-party or high-volume orders?

Yes. And no. What we don’t do is wholesale pricing because we have neither the resources nor the desire to output large quantities of our designs. But for groups such as bridal parties, yes, we would offer special pricing, dependent on the type of piece or pieces selected, the availability of materials, the timing and the quantities involved. Please call (480.250.6022) or eMail us to discuss the particulars.

Q  I’ve never used PayPal before. What’s involved? 

It’s quite simple. Just go through the checkout process as usual, entering your billing information and shipping information. Then, on the “FINAL ORDER INFORMATION” screen that shows your grand total, including tax or shipping and handling, if applicable, you will see a message that says  “PLEASE CLICK ON THE BUTTON BELOW TO COMPLETE YOUR ORDER.” You will see a yellow-and-red PayPal button at the bottom of that screen. When you click on that button, you will be guided to the PayPal payment gateway where you will be asked if you have an existing PayPal account. If you do, then you already know the rest. If you don’t, you will be prompted to enter some basic information (name & address) and some payment information (credit card number or checking account information, depending on how you prefer to pay). PayPal will immediately set up an online payment account for you and process your payment. That’s it!
