• Patches are always shipped seperately from other items
• Patches are sent via USPS.
• To maintain low shipping costs, small patch orders (less than 4 patches) do not include tracking.
• Domestic patch orders: Allow 5-15 business days for delivery after shipping notification.
• International patch orders: Allow 10-28 business days for delivery.
• Patches will arrive in a small white envelope with your regular mail.

Pre-Shipment

• In case of a "pre-shipment" status, your order is with USPS, but they may be experiencing delays.
• Due to factors like federal funding cuts, USPS service disruptions are not uncommon.
• If you order is still in pre-shipment after one week please contact us and we will do our best to resolve the situation. We know how frustrating delays can be, and are sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.

International Shipping

• Due to the current shipping strike in Canada we are unable to ship to Canada until further notice. Because of this, we are NOT ACCEPTING any new Canadian orders and will be canceling and refunding recently-placed orders that have not yet been fulfilled.
• We ship worldwide, however delivery can take up to 28 business days or more.
• Be aware that items can be held at customs, potentially delaying delivery.
• Customers may incur customs fees, import taxes, or other charges, which are the responsibility of the customer. 
• Please be aware that international shipments are often subject to such fees, which are levied by the destination country and not by our company. Unfortunately, we are unable to predict or control these charges as they vary from country to country. As these fees are not levied by us, we are unable to offer a refund for them.
