Shipping policy
Shipping in the United States
USPS (United States Postal Service)
USPS picks up packages from us Monday to Saturday, unless there is a Federal holiday.
USPS Media Mail is often the least expensive shipping option. It is trackable, but because it is always USPS's lowest priority, shipments may not arrive in the projected time frame.
USPS Ground Advantage is a new USPS service. Depending on your distance from New York City, it may be a less expensive option than Media Mail. Our experience has been that packages are delivered within the projected time frame.
USPS Priority Mail is a better choice when you need something to arrive in a specific time frame. The Postal Service does not guarantee delivery, however.
If you absolutely need a package by a particular date, please call us and we will work with you to find the best method: 212-876-5550.
UPS (United Parcel Service)
UPS picks up from us Monday through Friday, unless there is a Federal holiday.
UPS Ground is a trackable service with reliable delivery within projected timeframes.
UPS Next Day Air is trackable with a high rate of on-time delivery.
If you have concerns about whether an order will reach you in time, please call us at 212-876-5550.
Shipping Outside the United States
These policies have changed as of February 13, 2024.
We are now working with Shopify and their partner Global-e to provide improved international shipping. Specifically:
- At checkout, you will see and be charged for shipping costs as well as any local duties and taxes which may be due to your government. We’re sorry about these extra costs but we want you to see them up front
- All international shipments travel by DHL at significantly discounted rates
- Global-e will appear as the shipper of record on international orders. Please keep this in mind if you are contacted by DHL for delivery arrangements
International shipping rates vary enormously by country and by weight. The best way to find out what it will cost to have a book shipped to you is to initiate the checkout process. You will be shown shipping rates once your full address is entered. You will not need to enter your payment information to do this.
