Shipping
Orders are typically processed and tendered to the delivering carrier within 48 hours of their receipt. However, we cannot always guarantee a specific ship-date.
Following are the delivery standards for the two (02) methods of shipping we offer...
Economy/Ground delivery orders are sent via USPS Media Mail or FedEx/UPS Ground and are typically delivered within 7-10 business days. Deliveries to PO Boxes are made via the USPS Media Mail. Delivery charges are calculated as $0.99 + $5.00 for each item in an order.
Standard delivery orders are sent via USPS Priority or FedEx/UPS Ground and are typically delivered within 5-7 business days. Deliveries to PO Boxes are made via the USPS Priority. Delivery charges are calculated as $7.99 + $8.00 for each item in an order.
Fixed-date deliveries can be arranged by contacting us in advance.
Orders with free shipping or flat-rate shipping associated with them are sent with the same standards as "Economy" shipping orders.
Claims for damage, shortages, omissions or mis-deliveries must be placed within three (03) business days of order delivery or original attempted delivery date.
Shipment tracking information is made available via follow-up email message where possible, typically the business day following the date of shipment. Registered customers can also retrieve this information from their accounts.
