ABOUT

This site was formerly known as Zowie Toys. We recently changed our name to "Toy Fanatic." The former domain name has been taken over by Enom.com. We are in no way associated with Enom or www.zowietoys.com.

We have been buying and selling toys for a several years now, both privately and on Ebay. Check our Ebay "Me" page for our auctions and to review our excellent feedback rating:

GRADING

We are both conservative and meticulous about how we grade our items. For dolls and action figures, we use the standard "C" scale used by most action figure magazines. Most of our merchandise is loose. If an item is boxed or carded, however, that will be indicated in the listing. Here is a short run-down of the C-scale:

• c-10 Dead mint and complete, as in store new
• c-9 Near mint and complete. May have only small, barely noticeable flaw(s)
• c-8 Excellent condition, may have minor paint rubs, pulled threads, minor damage or soiling. might be missing accessories or some clothes.
• c-7 Decent, presentable toy. May be missing more paint and have some discolorations. May be missing some or all accessories. This will be indicated in description.
• c-6 Probably lost an arm or leg. The dog got it.
• c-5 We probably gave this one to the dog to play with.

For comic books, we rely on the Overstreet guide for grading. For most other items including books and paper collectibles we generally just try to describe ALL flaws in detail, as we understand that that is exactly what is needed in a virtual setting where a customer is unable to directly examine goods.

MONEY BACK GUARANTEE

While we are very meticulous about grading, occasionally we may make a mistake. If this happens, please notify us within one week of purchase (not receipt of purchase) and we will be happy to refund your money. If you simply change your mind about an item, the timeline is the same. However, you will be responsible for shipping costs. We don't encourage the latter, however, we know that stuff happens...
