USA Domestic Shipping

We ship with USPS (2-7 day domestic shipping depending on order size and distance). Due to USPS Service Delays, shipments may take longer to arrive than anticipated. Please consider this when placing your order. 

Orders do not include shipping insurance coverage and signature confirmation on delivery by default. This is a selectable addition to the standard shipping rate at checkout.

The shipping rate with Insurance and Signature confirmation must be selected and paid for to have these features included on the shipment. Any order sent without signature confirmation and insurance will be sent at the risk of the buyer. We do not hold any responsibility over packages that go missing, stolen, lost or damaged at the fault of the carrier. Orders sent without insurance are eligible for the basic insurance coverage offered by the carrier (generally up to $100) in the case of a package being lost, damaged or stolen.

We have been generally willing, but are not obligated to help with recovery or resolution. All recovery options from the carrier must be exhausted prior to considered refunds or replacements. In the event a package is lost, damaged or stolen without signature or additional insurance added to the shipment, a USPS claim can be filed and can take 15-30 days to process once submitted to USPS. Orders sent with insurance coverage and signature confirmation are eligible for refund or replacement in the same instances. There is no option for signature without insurance or vice versa.

Please keep in mind that carrier errors do occur but affect a low percentage of the orders we fulfill.

International Shipping 

Our flat rate shipping with USPS First Class Mail & Priority International will arrive within 6-14 days. We also offer calculated rates from FedEx and UPS. However, there can be circumstances where shipping can take up to 3-5 weeks depending on location and processing. If you are expecting a package with either of these services, it is the buyers responsibility to monitor the tracking and to check if the package is being held with customs. Sometimes customs will hold packages for up to 3 weeks before returning to sender. 

We fill out the customs form on our end. We will NOT adjust the actual value of the order. The buyer assumes all responsibility for any additional fees associated with shipping items internationally (VAT).
