Processing time for standard orders may vary and take up to 5 business days before your order is shipped. Our shipping is based on business days, excluding holidays. We offer priority shipping on all US orders, including Hawaii and Alaska and free shipping on all US orders over $500. Items in stock will ship within 3-5 business days, and items for pre-order will ship within the date range indicated on their product page. Once shipped, you will receive your shipping confirmation and tracking number via email. You can also check shipping status from your account page.

International Orders
If you live outside the U.S., our shipment of products to you may be subject to customs duties, export or import taxes or other charges which are separate from the shipping charges and are your responsibility upon delivery.

If you refuse the duties payment, the product will be shipped back to us and all fees incurred will be the responsibility of the customer.
