Shipping
Orders typically take 1- 3 business days after purchase date to be processed and shipped for in stock merchandise, but is longer during sales/launches and the holidays! Pre-ordered items will ship within a few days of receiving the pre-order items. We currently ship Monday - Friday, and only offer USPS for shipping. Receiving an email saying your item has shipped does not necessarily mean it will be shipped that day; it means your order was processed for shipment. Your order will be processed and sent to our fulfillment area to be fulfilled as quickly as possible. Transit time estimates given at checkout are after the fulfillment time, and are subject to USPS delays. Shipping prices are determined by USPS which are based on the weight of your entire order, and it’s destination from our warehouse.
Domestic Orders (within the US): Orders typically take 3-5 business days from shipment date to be delivered. Subject to USPS delays.
International Orders (outside the US): Orders typically take 6-21 business days from shipment date to be delivered. This mostly depends on customs in your country.
However, due to the current pandemic, depending on the destination country, orders could take up to 12+ weeks. Please be aware that we are not responsible for products confiscated by the legal authorities of your country or state; we advise you to check your local customs office regarding import laws in advance, before ordering, if you suspect that your country bans any products.
Orders shipping to destinations outside the United States might incur import fees and duties & taxes that are not reflected in our prices. If duties and taxes are imposed on your order, they are due at time of delivery. Please consult your local customs office for more details about your country's duties and taxes.
