We ship on Tuesdays & Fridays. Items paid for on Saturday, Sunday, Monday or by 9AM Eastern Time on Tuesday will ship on Tuesday; items paid for after 9AM on Tuesday, on Wednesday, Thursday or by 9AM EST on Friday will ship on Friday. Items paid for after 9AM on Friday will ship on Tuesday. This falls within the 3-business day time frame. Please remember: We don't make the postage fees, the Post Office does! We add insurance to all Canadian shipments at the cost of $1.15 USD ($1.75 for jewelry.) If you are unhappy with the shipping fees, your gripe is with the U.S. Postal Service. Please do not take it out on us! Thank you for your understanding :) PS: It does NOT cost more to ship to Alaska, Hawaii, APO, FPO, or US Minor Outlying Regions/Proctorates despite what others may say! Please remember when leaving feedback that "shipping time" means the time between when you paid & when we shipped-NOT when it was delivered-we have NO control over that part, sorry! We always ship within 3 BUSINESS days of payment (Please remember Sunday is NOT a business day.) You can view our shipping schedule on our "My World" Page and in our FAQS. We will ship flat rate Priority Mail if that is the least expensive method. If you would like an accurate shipping quote please email with your Zip Code and the item(s) you are interested in and we can tell you exactly how much the postage will cost. Thank you very much!!
