Overnight shipping: more info on getting “Cinnamon Bear” by December 24th
Mon ,21/12/2009Want “Cinnamon Bear” to arrive by Christmas Eve? Select “Google Checkout”, and “Express Shipping” to process your order, or call us at (224) 836-0108. You must order by December 22nd at 3:00 PM CST if you live in a small city or town, or by December 23rd at 3:00 PM CST if you live in a major city / postal hub (Miami, Seattle, etc). This is for shipping via USPS Express Mail.
Why the difference? The post office offers different service commitments depending on distance from a major airport. However, they do continue to offer a service guarantee when UPS and FedEx do not (between the 21st and 24th of December).
Shipping will also be adjusted to match the correct weight and cost for your package, generally downward – for most customers, ordering one copy, the overnight delivery charge is about $24-25, with NO handling added.
You may also decide to order via Priority Mail for the regular cost; keep in mind that while it is listed as arriving within two days, these are guidelines and not guaranteed as with Express Mail.
Currently, Priority Mail packages are arriving on average within 3.2 days from the time of shipping. Not bad considering the Christmas crunch!
If you call us to place an order, and receive our voice mail while we’re on the other line, please be sure to repeat your telephone number and give us the best times to call you back.
