Shipping is fulfilled by our fulfillment partner, which uses UPS delivery service. We unfortunately cannot accept Fed-Ex or UPS account numbers for shipping; our partner does not allow-third party shipping options.

Rush Shipping and Printing

Rush ordering is available, and shipping cost varies based on the actual shipping cost of your order and the speed at which you wish to have your books delivered. We offer ground, two-day, and overnight shipping. Rush shipping drastically increases the cost of your order, and we recommend only requesting rush shipping as a last resort. To plan ahead, please allow up to three weeks for delivery, though this can vary greatly depending on your location and the book ordered. We also offer a rush printing option, which will add an additional cost to your order.
