Shipping and Returns
Where will you ship to?
  We ship to all U.S. addresses including APO, FPO and U.S. Territories.

We regret that we do not ship internationally. We are happy to ship to a freight forwarder (you give us a U.S. address for your freight forwarder and they handle the international shipment) and have found that this is almost always a cheaper option than us shipping directly.
How much does shipping cost?
  We use a smart shopping cart with USPS live rates enabled. The shopping cart will calculate shipping options for you based on the items in your cart and your zip code.

We ship all orders from Washington State. We aim to ship same or next day and the majority of our orders placed by 1pm Pacific time ship out the same day.

We offer USPS media mail, first-class mail, priority mail and priority mail express.

USPS media mail takes 2-10 days depending on how far you are from Washington state.

USPS first-class mail is available for packages up to 15.9oz. It takes 1-4 days in transit.

USPS priority mail takes 1-3 days. Transit time here depends on how far you are from a major hub. The majority of priority mail packages leave Washington the day we ship them. Sorting in your state determines whether transit time will be 2 or 3 days.

USPS priority mail express is a 1-2 day service. Please be aware that there is cut off time for USPS receipt to guarantee this service and we cannot guarantee that orders placed after 11am will ship out in time to meet that cut-off.

For most customers needing a package in a hurry USPS priority mail will suffice. It is usually one day slower than USPS priority express and much cheaper. In addition to saving one day in transit USPS priority express comes with a guarantee. If your package is not delivered within the promised window (remember that your package might not ship until the day after you place your order) your shipping cost will be refunded.


When will my order ship and how long will it take to arrive?
  Media mail is a special class of mail for books. Depending on how far you are from WA it could take 2-14 days to receive your order. As an indication, within WA transit time is 2-3 business days. To CA, UT and MT takes approximately 3-4 business days. To TX, FL and NY takes approximately 4-6 business days.

First Class Mail takes 3-5 days within the US.

Priority mail is our preferred shipment method. Transit time is 2-3 business days to most U.S. addresses (Saturday counts as a shipping day. Sundays and Federal holidays do not.)

USPS Priority Express is an overnight or 2 day service. Saturday delivery is standard. Sunday delivery is available to some locations.

You can check to see whether overnight service is offered to your zip code at Express Mail Commitments Your order is shipping from zip code 98004. (If this page returns "no service available" change the date to tomorrow - it simply means that the Post Office close off time for package receipt today to guarantee this service has passed).
We guarantee to get your order placed by 11am Pacific shipped in time to meet the express mail commitment for that day. We will do our best to get express mail orders placed later in the day shipped in time but we cannot promise that an order placed after 11am Pacific today will reach you tomorrow.
What is the return policy?
  You may return books in resaleable condition for up to 30 days after receipt.
