FREE SHIPPING TO ANY US
   ADDRESS:

Most orders are shipped from my warehouse in Chelsea, Michigan.

Orders for physical items ship MEDIA MAIL with tracking for free to any US address (PO Boxes too!).

For an additional fee of $5.00 you can opt for UPS MAIL INNOVATIONS shipping if you prefer.  The weight of the parcel must not exceed 15 pounds.  This rate works like this:
*UPS will handle your order from my warehouse
   in Michigan to your local post office.  The post
   office will deliver to your door.
*Transit time is 2 to 5 days, depending upon your
                                                                                                       location.
                                                                                                     *Monday through Saturday delivery.
                                                                                                     *A postal service tracking number and/or a UPS                                                                                                                  tracking number will be assigned to your order                                                                                                                  which will provide detailed tracking updates via                                                                                                                  the UPS and/or the USPS website.

If you wish to use UPS MAIL INNOVATIONS, please CONTACT ME before placing your order and I will set up an invoice for you including the books you wish to order and the additional $5 fee.  This will give me a heads up that you want special shipping arrangements.
                                                                                             
Any order exceeding 15 pounds and all orders sent from my office in Oregon will be shipped using media mail with the US Post Office.  Door-to-door tracking is provided.  Transit time averages 5 to 14 days, depending on your location.

SEVERE WEATHER EVENTS:  Current or pending severe weather events, especially if expected in your area or near my warehouse, may impact when I ship your order and the timing of delivery.  If I am concerned about the weather, I will contact you to let you know.  Changes to delivery schedules may also be imposed by the post office or UPS.  

TIME-TO-SHIP WINDOW:  Once the Michigan warehouse receives your order, the shipping processing window is 2 business days.  In most cases, this processing window begins on the next business day after you receive the email from me notifying you that your order is being processed.
      If I am shipping from my office in Oregon, I can usually get your order out the day I receive it or the very next business day.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING

If you are thinking of ordering books for international delivery, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST.

MORE ABOUT MyUS.com
MyUS is in Sarasota, Florida.  These are the advantages:

*Excellent rates--Shipping internationally is very expensive.  Using myUS.com saves up to 80% in shipping costs.  (If you frequently buy things from US vendors, you can save on shipping all your US purchases.  There is also a paid premium account with more features.)

*Better pricing--Since my books are heavy and costs to ship to different countries vary quite a bit, it makes sense to get the best price possible.

*Door-to-door tracking--The US post office does not offer this service consistently for international shipping and this is a big advantage of using MyUS.

 *Timely delivery--The freight service ships your parcel shortly after it arrives in Florida.   Once it is shipped internationally, it gets to you pretty quickly, usually within 5 to 7 days, depending on your location.

International Shipping with MyUS: step-by-step

I'll ship your order to the Florida address MyUS assigns to you.  Once your order leaves the warehouse in Michigan, it cannot be cancelled.

Once your order leaves my warehouse, it will take about 7 days to get to the MyUS.com warehouse in Florida.

I will send you the tracking number for your order.

Once your order arrives in Florida, MyUS.com will determine the final cost of shipping based on the actual weight of your parcel as well as any import fees that must be prepaid.  They will usually ship your parcel within 1 to 3 business days after it arrives there.

IMPORT FEES:  After your order is received and processed by MyUS, depending on where it is going and the value of the items, they may require that you prepay import costs (customs, VAT, etc.).  These will be charged to your account along with the shipping costs.    If prepayment of import fees is not required, any import fees will need to be paid by you once your parcel arrives in your country.
