Our experience tells us that the delivery times listed are accurate for developed countries with benign customs practices. Once the package arrives in the destination country, that country's customs and postal service affect the delivery time.

If your address is in India, Central America, South America, or Africa, your order may take more time to arrive than for other countries. Please see our Pricing page for more information.
