Terms of use

Effective 11 November 2026.

Using this site

By reading Paws & Boxes you accept these terms. If you do not, please close the page. The terms apply to every page on pawsandboxes.com, including the guides, the calculator and the policy pages.

Information, not advice

Everything here is general information about a product category. It is not legal, customs, tax, financial or safety certification advice, and it is not a substitute for a qualified professional or a testing laboratory. Sourcing decisions, product safety obligations and import duties depend on your product, your market and your circumstances. Verify before you commit money.

Prices, series lists and availability are snapshots taken on the dates shown on each page. Retailers change prices without notice, and manufacturers change assortments. A figure that was accurate when checked can be wrong a month later.

Odds, estimates and ranges

Where this site publishes a pull rate, it is one the manufacturer printed. Where it publishes a factory cost, it is a range from a published source. Where it publishes an arithmetic result — expected spend, break-even, probability — the calculation is shown so you can check it. We do not guarantee that any maker's packaging matches its printed ratio, and we do not guarantee outcomes from buying boxes.

Intellectual property

The text on this site is ours, and you may quote it with attribution and a link. You may not republish it wholesale, resell it, or present it as your own. Brand names, product names and character names — including Littlest Pet Shop, Basic Fun, Squishmallows, Jazwares, Pop Mart and Kidrobot — are the trademarks of their owners and are used here only to identify and discuss their products. Photographs are credited on the image credits page under their own licences.

Outbound links

We link to manufacturers, retailers, regulators and marketplaces for reference. We do not control those sites, do not endorse their content, and are not responsible for their terms, prices or data practices. Following an outbound link is at your own risk.

No warranty and limits on liability

The site is provided as is, without warranties of any kind. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss arising from reliance on the site — including lost profit, unsold stock, a failed production run, or a purchase you regret. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

Changes

We may update these terms; the effective date above will change when we do. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.
