Payment Options
Thrilling Toyz serves collectors and hobbyists worldwide with premium European model trains and accessories from leading brands including Marklin, Roco, PIKO, ESU, BEMO, Trix and LGB.
Once an order is placed, Thrilling Toyz reviews the order and confirms which products and quantities are in stock and ready to ship, and which items need to be specially ordered or are currently on backorder. For items that are in stock and ready to ship, we calculate the shipping charges and issue the invoice for payment.
Order Review & Invoice Process
Once an order is placed, customers receive an Order Confirmation showing the items ordered, the quantities Thrilling Toyz will be able to supply, and the price per item. The Order Confirmation is not a commercial invoice or a payment request.
Thrilling Toyz then reviews the order to confirm which items and / or quantities are in stock and ready to ship, and which items need to be specially ordered or are currently on backorder.
For items that are in stock and ready to ship, we calculate the shipping charges based on weight, dimensions and destination. We also combine items where possible to keep shipping costs fair and accurate.
An invoice is issued once the shipping charges have been accurately calculated based on the items in stock and the quantities ready to ship.
Before invoice is generated and payment is requested, Thrilling Toyz will:
- Confirm product availability
- Verify packaging requirements
- Calculate actual shipping charges based on weight, dimensions and destination
- Optimise combined shipping where possible
- Include any applicable taxes, duties or additional charges where relevant
This thorough process helps ensure fair and accurate shipping charges, particularly for larger train sets, delicate models, accessories and multi-item international orders.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.
