SHOPPING HELPERS
GENERAL INFO
Simply click on a topic below to learn more.
We aim to ship the majority of order on the day received, Monday to Friday, if received before 3pm MST. All orders are sent in discreet plain padded mailing envelopes or boxes with your name and address label affixed to the front. Our company name does not appear in full on the outside of packages sent by mail, the return address shows “BA Inc” only. No one will know what is in your package. Your credit card statement will show the charge from "Body Aware."
You will receive an email from us confirming shipping and giving any tracking information available (depending on shipping service selected). Sometimes these automated emails are considered spam so please look in your spam or junk box if you do not receive an email. Tracking information from USPS.com or FedEx.com may not be available for the first 24 to 48 hours after you receive your shipping confirmation email. Please note that the regular airmail service from USA to overseas destinations is generally not trackable beyond the USA, so if you can get some information by tracking, it will only go as far as the point of departure from the USA (you will need to select Priority or Express airmail to have a full tracking number to destination).
The web site gives live information on stock availability. If an item is currently unavailable in a specific color and size, the "add to cart" button will display a "Notify me" message. You are invited to enter your email and then you will automatically be sent an email as soon as the item comes back into stock in your preferred color and size. We recommend using this facility as we keep track of the number of customers wanting each item, and higher priority in manufacturing is given to items most often requested.
If paying by credit card, as long as you give the correct billing address and CVV (security code on back) for the credit card used, we can ship to a separate PO Box. If paying by PayPal, the PO Box must be one of your Confirmed PayPal addresses. If paying by check or money order, we can ship to a PO Box.
Yes, we accept payments by PayPal on our regular web site. You will see this as an option towards the end of check out. It is not yet available if using our mobile site, but you can switch to our regular site on a mobile device by clicking on the "Take me to the regular site" link at the bottom of the home page.
If you find your shopping cart is not remembering items added, or is empty when you go to check out, cookies may be disabled on your browser. Cookies are small text files on your computer/mobile device that are used to store items added to your shopping cart. If your web browser is not set to accept cookies, you will not be able to place an order or take full advantage of the features on our website.

Please see our size chart (there is a 'Size Chart" tab for each product). We recommend measuring your waist (or chest) with a tape measure before referring to the chart. As all manufacturers have different sizing standards, if you are medium in one company's products does not necessarily mean that you will be a medium in ours. As our background and styles are European, we tend to follow European standards, where items are designed to be low waisted and figure hugging. Many Americans are more comfortable with a looser fit, and so may prefer to order a size up. For tank tops and bodysuits, we suggest determining the size by your chest measurement. For all other items, you should use your waist measurement.
If you have made a purchase and set up an account previously, you don’t ever having to fill in another form! At Checkout you will be prompted for your email address and password (if you have forgotten the password there is a link to help you). Then you can select from previous delivery and billing addresses, and payment methods you have used previously (or add new ones). You will only need to re-enter your CVV security code from the back of the credit card, and then with a single click you can complete the order.
We want you to be happy with your purchases, and if you have any problems or questions, please feel free to email us. We endeavor to respond to emails within 2 hours during normal office hours. If you wish to return an item or items of clothing within 30 days of purchase, please be sure they are in unworn condition and in original packaging with tags and labels attached. Please try on underwear over clean underwear if there is a chance you may want to return it. We do reserve the right to reject a returns request if the items have been clearly worn and have not been returned in the condition received, or if the return policy is abused. If you still have the original packing slip, please send it back with your instructions, or else include a separate note and be sure to include your name and address. Please ship back to us at: Returns Dept., Body Aware Inc., 16443 N 91st St #104 Scottsdale AZ 85260 (USA) You will need to pay the return postage, but if exchanging items, we will pay for the new items to be mailed back to you. If sending a large value package, we recommend sending insured mail. If sending from outside USA, please be sure to write "returned clothing" on any customs forms. For reasons of hygiene, we regret we cannot accept returns of any sex toys or latex items.
Absolutely, we love to hear from you! If you have any thoughts on items you have purchased, or suggestions on the types of products you would like to see, please use the "Contact Us" link which you will find at the foot of the web pages. We have a whole factory overflowing with fabrics and filled with highly skilled designers, pattern cutters, seamstresses and seamsters who can make anything, so send us your ideas and keep them busy!
We are located in Scottsdale, Arizona. We do not have a shop, but local customers can email or call (480 661 0708) with their order, and pick it up later from our front desk. We are open from 8.30am to 4.00pm, Monday to Friday, for customers using this option. Unfortunately we do not have a showroom or any facilities for trying on products.
Shipping charges are determined at checkout by the shipping method selected and the destination relative to our warehouse in Arizona. The rates can be seen at the shipping calculator. We currently have a low flat rate shipping option for USA delivery addresses of $3.20 for first class mail. If you need your items faster (and who doesn't), then we offer faster mail service plus FedEx overnight and 2 day delivery options.
We ship to most countries in the world from our USA warehouse. We provide prices in local currency for some countries, but please be aware these are based on the exchange rate at that moment, and your actual billing on your credit card will be in US$, so some small fluctuations are possible. When checking out, the available shipping options and costs will be shown to you. Shipping times vary considerably from country to country, depending on the local delivery service and also delays than can occur in customs. Typically most packages sent by regular airmail are received within 2-5 weeks. Orders (particularly large orders) shipped outside of USA may be subject to VAT, import duties and carrier handling fees that can be levied once your order enters your country. Body Aware Inc does not ship with these taxes and duties prepaid, as we cannot predict what they may be, so unfortunately any such charges are the responsibility of the customer, and will generally have to be paid before the mail service will release the package. In many countries, the mail service will leave a postcard at your address with instruction on how to pay any taxes and to claim the package. Please contact your local mail or customs office for additional information. Please be aware that when customs clearance procedures are required, delays can be casued beyond our original delivery estimates.
Yes, you can opt to place an order as a guest, without setting up an account. At start of checkout, at the Login screen, you can select "Buy without an account" and an account will not be created. Please be aware that if you choose not to create an account, you will not be able to sign in to trace the progress of your order. We request an email address so we can contact you if there is any problem with the order, and to allow us to send you an order confirmation and shipping information.
For our USA customers we offer the option of paying for your order with a check or money order sent in by mail. Simply proceed to order on line and at check out, select to pay by check/money order. Then at the end of checkout, print a copy of the order receipt and mail it within 24 hours to: Body Aware, 16443 N 91st St #104, Scottsdale AZ 85260. We will reserve the goods for you for 5 days, and if paying by money order, the order will be shipped as soon as we receive payment. Orders paid by check will be held a few days for check clearance. Please note this service is for USA customers only, paying in US$.
