Shipping, I want it now!
Packages Yay!
How long will it take my Tattle Rattle to arrive?
Right now fulfillment takes 1-2 weeks. I know that seems like forever, but we are working tirelessly to produce and fulfill orders as quickly as possible.
How does my product ship?
Items ship in plain boxes. Discreet shipping is our priority for your comfort. Now once you open that box expect to be blown away.
Is shipping free?
Shipping is NOT included in the sale price and will be calculated at checkout. We do our best to keep our rates reasonable, but unfortunately we cannot offer free shipping at this time.
Who do you ship with?
We use a combination of shippers to maintain the lowest shipping rates possible, primarily USPS and UPS.
Why can't I place my big order that would weigh a bajillion pounds?
It is possible that you somehow bought so much that you exceeded our maximum shipping. I don't know how you did it, but congratulations! You will either need to split it into multiple orders or reach out to us directly to arrange something.
What Is a Tattle Rattle?
The Tattle Rattle is an awesome toy!
Who is the Tattle Rattle for?
The Tattle Rattle is for everyone. Big babies, little tots, kids at heart, and anyone that appreciates a bit of whimsy.
How do I clean my Tattle Rattle?
The Tattle Rattle is not Dishwasher safe. Clean it by gently hand washing it with dish soap and towel drying it. Avoid submerging the rattle so it doesn’t retain water.
Can I chew on my Tattle Rattle?
I can’t tell you what to do, but the Tattle Rattle is not food safe and should not be chewed on.
Where can I take my Tattle Rattle?
Take it with you everywhere! Its designed to be shown off and played with, but don't leave it in your vehicle or expose it to high temperatures. The Tattle Rattle is made of a thermoplastic that can soften when subjected to extreme heat. We use a process to strengthen the rattle so it should be OK, but its best to keep it safe. If you are uncomfortable so is your Tattle Rattle.
Why is the Tattle Rattle so expensive!?
It’s a niche product. Our rattles are all made and manufactured in house. We do not outsource, we do it all ourselves. Our parts are solid, stress tested, and designed to last. That means they cost a bit more, but it is worth it.
Why are all the Tattle Rattle pieces only one color?
To keep the cost down for you, and to keep things manageable for us. One Tattle Rattle handle piece is 20 different parts in our inventory. While you might see it as one rattle we see it as 100 different pieces we have designed, tested, and manufactured with care. We are looking into adding dual color parts in the future as an upgrade.
Can I get a part in X color?!
I know it’s disappointing that the Tattle Rattle only comes in 10 colors, but that’s a lot! We offer as many colors as we can manage right now, but that doesn’t mean we might not offer more later. Luckily you can get your Tattle Rattle now and add new pieces as they are released.
Why does it take so long to get here, I want it now?!
Processing time gives us a chance to assemble your Tattle Rattle, go over it with care, and ensure you are getting the best rattle we can make. We are a small operation and that means sometimes taking a little extra time to make sure you are getting the best toy possible.
Do you only sell the Tattle Rattle?
The Tattle Rattle is our first product, and one we are very proud of, but it won’t be our last. We have plans for more so keep an eye out on our social media for announcements for our next product.
You have a credit card?
The TotMods credit card actually!
What is The TotMods Credit Card?
The TotMods Credit Card is your bold fashion statement. It is your go to kid themed shopping accessory. It is a card holder that allows you to use tap to pay in style.
How does it work?
The TotMods Credit Card has an opening on the side designed to firmly grip a standard credit or debit card. Just slide in your card and when you go to pay, use The TotMods Credit Card to flash all your friends. Take your plastic to the next level. Sure you could just use your phone, but where is the fun in that. If the seller doesn’t accept tap to pay just use the small opening on the back of the signature panel to release the card and swipe/insert.
Is there room for multiple cards?
No. The TotMods Credit Card is only designed to hold a single card. If it held multiple cards tap to pay wouldn’t work through the holder.
Why is it so HEAVY.
You are handling 100% pure grade A solid plastic. No hollow cavities, just premium polymer. The heft is half the fun
Is it true there is going to be a TotMods Platinum?
This is a running joke internally. We have no plans on releasing any other editions at this time, but never say never.
