Holiday Shipping Schedule 2009/10

Expedited Shipping

Order early to make sure your gifts arrive on time, or use expedited shipping if time is running out – we are here to help!

Thanks so much for giving the gift of Kamibashi this holiday season!

As always, we are shipping orders out by Priority Mail within 24 hours of receipt, but once it's out the door it is out of our hands. In order to insure that your gifts arrive on time, please order EARLY, like now ;-). Below is some information and dates to keep in mind, and if you need us to expedite your order we can do that no problem – just call our office right after you place your order to let us know when you need it to arrive: 828-683-7994. We'll figure out how much extra it will cost and send you a PayPal link, or take your credit card info over the phone, to cover the additional shipping cost.

.

Cost: $5.95 flat rate for your entire order.

Priority Mail generally takes 2 - 3 days but it is not guaranteed, and even though they say it will make it there by Christmas if shipped on Monday December 21 it may not. Try your luck (sometimes the post office surprises even us!) or contact us for expedited shipping by UPS (see below) on orders being placed after 3 pm on December 20 or after.

Date to remember:

Monday, December 21: This is the last day to place your order to ship by regular priority mail. Please make sure your order arrives to us no later than 3 pm EST on December 20 – any orders that arrive after 3 pm may not get out the door that day and therefore may not make it there on time. Please see below for expedited shipping by UPS for orders placed after 3 pm on December 20 or for orders you'd like to expedite no matter what the date. Please note that we are not responsible for any order that does not make it to you by the holidays, even if ordered on or before December 20. Thanks so much for your understanding, we really appreciate it!

.

Cost: This will depend on how fast you need it and where you live.

Shipping by UPS is the best way for us to ship your order when you need it by a certain date and don't want to take a chance with Priority Mail. It's also the only way to get your order there on time for the holidays if you are ordering after 3 pm on December 20. UPS Ground is of course the cheapest way and it takes only 2 business days to get there from our office in North Carolina if you live in the South, most of the Midwest, or on the East Coast. Shipments to the West Coast take a full week by UPS ground to arrive and other regions take 3 or 4 days. To see how long UPS ground takes to get to your state from NC, please see the color-coded map below. To have us ship using UPS please call our office for a quote on 3-day, 2-day, and Next Day: 828-683-7994

Dates to remember:

Monday, December 21: Depending on where you live, it could be only a few more dollars than priority mail to ship by UPS. Orders going to addresses which take 4 or 5 days by UPS ground (see states in orange and brown on map) will need to be shipped by 3-day today, all others states can be shipped ground.

Tuesday, December 21: Orders going to addresses which take 3, 4 or 5 days by UPS ground (see states in orange, brown, and green on map) will need to be shipped by 2-day, all others states can be shipped ground.

Wednesday, December 22: Orders going out to ALL STATES must be shipped by Next Day Air. There are 3 types and price levels for Next Day Air – call us for a quote.

Thursday, December 24: We will be shipping out today but it won't make it there by the 25th no matter what we do – at this point it will most likely be as fast or faster (depending on where you live) to have us ship as usual by Priority Mail. If you need it there by a certain day though, UPS is the way to go and we'll be happy to tell you your options – just give us a call at 828-683-7994.
