2. Product Information and Intended Use

Our products are intended for miniature collectors, hobbyists, model makers, and craft enthusiasts, according to the intended use stated in each product listing.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, products are not represented as children's toys. However, age recommendations and descriptions such as "collectible" or "not a toy" do not, by themselves, determine the legal classification of a product.

Products may contain small parts, sharp edges, fragile components, or other features requiring careful handling. Customers should review the product description, dimensions, materials, intended use, and applicable warnings before purchase and use.

Keep unsuitable products and small parts away from young children and pets.

3. Product Safety and Regulatory Compliance

M for Miniatures takes applicable product safety and regulatory requirements into account when sourcing, offering, and selling products.

Where applicable, we review available manufacturer and supplier information, product identification details, safety documentation, and relevant warnings.

For products offered to consumers in the European Union, we take account of the General Product Safety Regulation (EU) 2023/988 (GPSR) and other applicable product safety legislation.

Where applicable, product listings provide the manufacturer, EU Responsible Person, product identification details, and safety warnings and instructions required by relevant product safety legislation.

The availability of safety information or documentation for one product does not imply that the same information, documentation, or regulatory status applies to other products.

Vintage items, collectibles, products made by us, and products sourced from different suppliers may require separate assessments according to their characteristics and applicable legal requirements.

Nothing in this notice exempts any product from applicable safety requirements or excludes any legal obligation that cannot lawfully be excluded.

4. Product Descriptions and Images

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions, photographs, measurements, scale information, colors, and other details are accurate.

Colors may vary depending on display settings. Handmade, vintage, and individually produced items may also have variations in appearance, finish, dimensions, or condition.

Please check the individual product listing carefully, particularly where items are sold unfinished, unpainted, as kits, or as components for further assembly.

Contact us before purchasing if you require clarification about a product's dimensions, materials, condition, or intended use.

Our catalogue includes products made by third-party manufacturers and suppliers. We do not represent ourselves as the manufacturer of those products unless expressly stated.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, M for Miniatures is not responsible for loss arising from the improper use, modification, assembly, or handling of a product contrary to its stated intended use or applicable instructions.
