We make every effort
to ship your order out within 24 hours of receipt for items in stock.
All of our orders ship via UPS as we have found this to be the safest
and most reliable method for our company. However, it is necessary
for us to use U.S. mail for Post Office box numbers, APO/FPO destinations
and some non-mainland orders. If you would like to choose a different
method of shipment you can contact our Customer
Service team and they will offer you an alternative quote.
Shipping
Services
Orders are shipped UPS
ground and require a street address. Delivery of in-stock items
normally takes 7-10 business days. Your order may be shipped in
multiple boxes and arrive separately. Posters are always shipped
separately in a durable cardboard tube.
Extra
postage required
Additional Delivery charges
may apply to items that are too large, bulky, or heavy to be accommodated
by our standing shipping charges. The additional charges will
be automatically added into your shipping costs in the shopping
cart stage. The product description will indicate the additional

find these products listed below for reference
