Fast Shipping

I saw they were having a flash sale and I had been looking for some glow bracelets, light up rings, etc. For a community celebration. Shipping was super fast and I received my order in two days!

Senior loves WCN prices!

Being on a set income, I loved the selection of reasonably priced Halloween items. I chose backdrops, table skirts and ghost girls for my annual Halloween party. It was easy to order and the merchandise came fast.

The products purchased by me were…

I want to know if we are moving forward with the resolution of my purchase or not.

The products purchased by me were shipped by a completely different person. I brought it to the Windy City Novelties and theynever returned my money or sent the products. It has been a couple of weeks and nothing from Windy City. Wouldn't recommend them for any reason. Mark Linton

I would like the products and as I mentioned in an earlier email, I would like it mail you to the post office that I gave you earlier today.

We previously offered either a replacement or a refund after learning that FedEx changed the delivery address from your P.O. Box to a physical address without authorization. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this caused. As we do not use the post office as delivery service.

At that time, you wanted to try retrieving the package yourself, so we have been waiting to hear back from you regarding whether you were able to retrieve it.

Please reply to our sales email with your order number, let us know if you were able to retrieve the package, and tell us whether you would prefer a replacement or a refund. Once we receive your response, we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and we look forward to hearing from you.
