Holiday Shipping Update

Holiday Shipping Update

The holiday season is quickly approaching and that means more online shopping and shipping.  Some of you may remember that last year we had some packages waylaid in the Philadelphia hub for several weeks during the peak of the holiday shipping season. We would love to say that it will not happen again this year, but we are already starting to see some delays in delivery from the estimated time frames given to us when we ship packages.  With this in mind, we have decided o open up another avenue for shipping within our store.  We are happy to announce that starting last night, UPS in now an available option for you to choose from for both domestic and international shipping. 

 

Below are the dates that the carriers are listing as cut off dates for holiday shipping.
