Any orders placed after 1:00PM CST will be packaged and shipped out the next 1-3 business days. Any orders placed over the weekend will be processed the next business day.
Any orders that are not shipped within 3 business days could be the cause of unavailability of merchandise or incomplete/inaccurate credit card information. We will always give you a complimentary call and/or email to let you know of such details. If we are unable to speak with you/get a response from you by the 4th business day from the date of your order, we will ship out your order as is.
