📦 Shipping Policy Last updated: 24 June 2026
Thank you for shopping at 79 Franklin Press! We're excited to get our books and goodies into your hands as quickly and smoothly as possible. Here's everything you need to know about our shipping process.
🌍 Where We Ship We currently ship to:
- All U.S. states and territories
- Select international destinations
If your location isn't supported at checkout, feel free to contact us and we'll see what we can do!
🚚 Estimated Processing Times
- Books & print products: ship within 3–5 business days.
- Merchandise (mugs, apparel, etc.): ships within 5–7 business days.
- Digital products: delivered instantly. After purchase you'll receive a download link by email from BookFunnel (check your spam folder and your BookFunnel library if you don't see it).
We process orders Monday through Friday. Orders placed on weekends or holidays are processed the next business day. We use third-party print-on-demand partners for some of our books and merchandise, so the estimated processing times above are based on their fulfillment schedules.
📦 Estimated Shipping Rates & Delivery Times Shipping is calculated at checkout based on your location and selected method. Here's what to expect:
| Location | Method | Estimated Delivery |
|---|---|---|
| United States | Standard | 3–7 business days |
| United States | Expedited (if available) | 2–3 business days |
| International | Standard | 7–21 business days |
Please note that delivery times may vary due to carrier delays, customs, or busy seasons — all factors outside our control. We're big fans of the USPS and trust they're doing their best to get your order to you safely.
🌐 International Orders, Customs & Duties For international orders, any customs fees, import duties, and taxes are the responsibility of the customer and are not included in your order total or shipping charges. Customs processing may also add to delivery times. All prices are listed in U.S. dollars (USD); any currency conversion is handled by your bank or card provider.
📫 Correct Shipping Information Please make sure your shipping address is complete and accurate at checkout. We're not able to take responsibility for packages delayed or lost due to an incorrect or incomplete address.
💌 Order Tracking Once your order ships, you'll receive an email with tracking info. Please allow up to 24 hours for the tracking number to update.
📬 Lost, Delayed, or "Delivered but Not Received" Packages We're not responsible for delays caused by carriers or customs, but we'll do our best to help if something goes wrong. If your package seems lost or significantly delayed, email us at info@79franklinpress.com with your order number. If tracking shows your package as delivered but you haven't received it, please contact the carrier directly to start a trace.
📦 Local Delivery or Pickup We offer free local delivery or pickup in Bloomington, Indiana! Just choose your preferred option at checkout and we'll be in touch to schedule.
📭 Preorders If your order contains a preorder, we'll ship the entire order once all items are ready. If you'd like in-stock items sooner, please place a separate order.
🌱 Sustainable Shipping Whenever possible, we use eco-friendly materials for packaging and printing. Thanks for helping us care for the planet!
