What method of shipping do you use?
We ship using USPS or Fed Ex. You will have an option at checkout to select either one of those methods. Real time shipping calculations ensure that you will always receive the most up to date pricing. All orders include a tracking number, and you will be notified via email when your order has shipped. Insurance may be purchased for an additional charge, and will show up as an option at checkout. Non-insured orders are only covered up to $100, in the event the package is lost or damaged in transit. We highly recommend this option for any order totaling over $100.

What if my package has gotten lost in the mail?
We are happy to replace and reship your order at our expense if the tracking number does not show as "delivered" and there is no activity on a tracking number:
~ Within two weeks of the ship date for domestic packages 
~Within six weeks for international packages ** To account for potential customs delays

ADDITIONALLY - Please note that we understandably cannot be responsible if the item has been marked as delivered through the tracking number, and you have not received it. This is a USPS or Fed Ex issue, and you will need to contact them directly. If insurance has been purchased on the order, we can assist you in filing a claim and provide any documentation needed.
