Shipping Policy
• We are located just outside of Boston, Massachusetts, USA. Orders received by 4:00 pm Eastern Time weekdays are shipped the same day; we also ship Saturday mornings. The shipping charge depends on the value of your order, and starts at only $6.95 flat-rate for Ground. We'll email you a shipping notice as soon as your shipping label has been prepared (which means your order has been packed). We use the US Postal Service for almost all shipments. Shipments to P.O. Boxes and US Armed Forces addresses are no problem!
• We gladly accept international orders! However at this time only orders to Canada up to US$100 order subtotal are processed automatically at our online store. For larger orders to Canada and for all other international orders, please fill your cart with your desired items, then let us know by email that your cart is waiting for the shipping charge calculation. We'll promptly reply.
USA
• All Orders: Orders for in-stock items received by 4:00 pm ET on non-holiday weekdays are generally shipped on the same day. Please add 24-48 hours to the in-transit times stated below just in case (especially at holiday time!). This will allow a margin of safety for busy days as well as for holidays/weekends.
• Ground Shipping (50 States): $6.95 flat-rate Ground Shipping. That means no matter how many items you order, the shipping charge for Ground will stay fixed at only $6.95. We use our choice of Postal Service Parcel Post® and First-Class Mail® for almost all shipments. In-transit times vary from 2 to 9 business days after we have shipped. The further your destination is from Massachusetts, the longer it will take to receive the package.
• Priority Shipping: See the rate table below. We use Postal Service Priority Mail® with Delivery Confirmation for almost all shipments. In-transit times within the lower 48 states average 2 to 3 business days after we have shipped, a bit longer for AK and HI. This method is usually your best value considering cost and delivery speed.
• Express Shipping: Add $21 to the charge for Priority Shipping (see rate table below). We use Postal Service Express Mail® for almost all shipments. In-transit time is usually one business day after we have shipped but to about one or two out of ten of our customers it is two business days, depending on your local service area. Please call us at 1-800-926-5605 either before or just after ordering in case you would like to verify the delivery date.
