    Shipping & Delivery

    Web orders generally ship in 1-2 business days, but during our peak months -August, December, January- processing & shipping time could take longer. Delivery times vary according to your delivery address, availability of your items, and the time of day you place your order.

    Ships Time

    The 'Ships' time is an estimate of when the item will leave our warehouse. For example, if an item displays "Ships in 1 business day" the item will leave our warehouse 1 business day after you place your order. While we work hard to ship every order as quickly as possible, certain times of the year may have longer ship times.
