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 the book leaves our warehouse. For example, an item marked as "Usually shipped 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.

Ordering Books with Different Availabilities

"Make one shipment when complete order is ready"
Choosing this option on the order form means that we will wait until we have all the items in your order before shipping any of them. For example, if you order one book marked as "Usually shipped within 2 to 3 days" and another marked "Special Order: usually shipped within 4 to 6 weeks," we will ship both books to you when the special-order book becomes available.
"Ship as ordered books become available"
Choosing this option on the order form means that each book you order will be shipped as it becomes available. Your shipping charges will increase, but, to save you some money, we make an effort to ship books as soon as we obtain them while not making any more shipments than necessary.
Out-of-Print Titles
Any out-of-print books in your order will automatically be shipped separately, even if you choose "Make one shipment when complete order is ready."
1-Click Orders
All 1-Click orders placed within 90 minutes of each other will be combined automatically into a maximum of 2 orders. Click here for more information about 1-Click shipping information.

Customs Information

We mark international packages as containing "Books--New" and state the cost of the books on the customs documentation; if the order is a gift, the package is marked "Gift," but the cost of the books is still stated on the customs form. Currently, we are not able to describe the contents in any other way.

Customs or import duties may be levied once the package reaches your country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; 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.
