Shipping

Courier

All packages are sent to you via USPS Priority Mail. All items are charged a flat fee which includes the calculated shipping fee plus a handling fee. The handling fee covers the cost of shipment packaging and labor involved in preparing the shipment. You will receive a USPS tracking number once your order ships out.
Some items will not have a flat fee, but will be have the option to calculate the shipping costs per your shipping destination. These items will have a separate fee to cover handling. These items will be clearly marked.

While orders are shipped out as fast as possible, please know that all hand-built items will take extra processing time. These items have a listed Ship-By date on the item description page.

All orders are shipped complete. Your order will not ship out until all items are finished processing and are ready to ship.

Local Pickup

Will call at our Riverside, California location is currently unavailable, and only shipping via post is available. Please check back soon, as this is an option currently being implemented.

International Orders

USPS ships to most countries. Delivery times will vary and are extremely unpredictable. If ordering internationally, please allow extra time for your package to arrive. A USPS tracking number will be provided which will allow you to see your package progress inside the U.S.A. – Some countries, notable Canada, Australia, and the U.K. will allow the USPS tracking number to track the shipments inside their borders.

Actual value and contents will be declared on customs forms. We can not and will not mark an order as “gift,” “sample,” or falsify the value. You, the recipient, are responsible for any and all VAT, taxes, tariffs, import fees, duty, customs clearance charges, and/or other fees that may be assessed by your postal service and/or customs office for importing products into your country. So, if your country charges import taxes or fees, please be prepared to pay them. There is no way for us to calculate fees like these for you; please contact your local authorities if you have concerns about taxes and fees associated with importing products.

Customs processing frequently requires an invoice, and we include a copy of the invoice in each international shipment. However, please keep a printed copy of your e-mailed order confirmation in case you need to send it to your customs office or shipping carrier for processing.
