U.S. Shipping Information
(includes APO/FPO addresses, Puerto Rico, and American Samoa)

To find out when you will receive an item, you need to consider the availability of the item you ordered and the shipping option you selected. Here's the equation we use:

(Availability) + (Shipping Time) = Total Delivery Time

For example, many items on our site show 24-hour availability. If you select Standard Shipping, your shipping time will be 3 to 7 business days, depending on where you live. This means your total delivery time will be 1 day (availability) + 3 to 7 days (shipping time). So you can expect to receive this item at your front door 4 to 8 days after you place your order.

International Shipping Information
To find out when you will receive an item, you need to consider the availability of the book you ordered and the shipping option you selected. Here's the equation we use:

(Availability) + (Shipping Time) = Total Delivery Time

For example, many items on our site show 24-hour availability. If you select World Mail, your shipping time will be 7 to 21 business days, depending on where you live. This means your total delivery time will be 1 day (availability) + 7 to 21 business days (shipping time). So you can expect to receive this items at your front door 8 to 22 business days after you place your order.

A note about standard shipping: Packages sent via standard shipping go by surface mail. Shipping time varies widely depending on the destination. In our experience, standard shipments take about 2 to 3 weeks to Canada, 6 weeks to the United Kingdom, 6 to 8 weeks to Japan and Australia, and 10 to 12 weeks to Brazil, to name a few.

PLEASE NOTE: We are unable to offer surface mail shipping for international orders containing compact discs.

Important Shipping Facts

A Next Day Air Cautionary Note

Upgrading to Next Day Air does not mean you'll get your order the next day.
Upgrading to Next Day or 2nd Day Air does not change how long it takes us to assemble and ship your order--it only reduces the travel time after your order leaves our warehouse. For example, an item marked as "Usually ships within 2 to 3 days" and upgraded to Next Day Air will usually leave our warehouse on the 2nd or 3rd business day and reach you on the 3rd or 4th business day. /

Customs Information

Customs forms for all international packages list the value of your order's contents by product type. For instance, orders containing both CDs and books will be listed in a way similar to the following example:

Books value:    $29.55
CDs value:      $ 9.95
If the order is a gift, the package is marked "Gift," but the cost of the items is still stated on the customs form. Currently, we are not able to describe the contents in any other way.

Any customs or import duties are levied once the package reaches its destination country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by the recipient; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; you may want to contact your local customs office for further information.
