Need it by the 25th?!

admin — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 18:06:01 +0000

If you want to ensure your order will be received by the 25th then you’ll need to use US Express Mail. Service is overnight to most destinations, and the Post office will even deliver on 25th for Express. Cost for this is $25. If you are interested in this please contact me directly at alex@familytreedesign.net. After you complete your order, please let me know that you need it fast! And you will also need to send an additional Paypal payment of $18 to alex@familytreedesign.net to cover the Express Mail cost. Last day to order and receive by the 25th is Friday December 23rd.

There’s still time to get your order by the 25th!

We send all our Domestic shipments using the US Postal Service Priority Mail. That means you’ll get your order in 2-3 days from mailing, and we almost always send out orders the same day, as long as they are placed BEFORE 2pm CST. So although the post office doesn’t guarantee that time frame, they are usually quite diligent. Orders placed as late as December 21st still have a chance of getting to you by the 24th. Cutting it close… but it’s possible.

If you really need peace of mind then you’ll want to go US Express Mail. Service is overnight to most destinations, and the Post office will even deliver on 25th for Express. Cost for this is $25. If you are interested in this please contact me directly at alex@familytreedesign.net

International shipments are another story… generally to EU and Great Britain it takes about two to three weeks. Other parts of the world usually take longer. So keep that in mind when ordering.

Reduced International Shipping

Rates have been reduced to better reflect the actual costs of International Shipping! To Canada is now only $8 or $10 (depending on weight). To the rest of the world shipping is $13.50 or $15.50 (depending on weight). Familytree uses The US Postal Service to keep your price down. We also will continue to use heavy duty 4″ tubes to protect the posters you buy, so they look great when you get them.

Local Pickup

admin — Tue, 05 Apr 2011 22:56:38 +0000

Local Pickup: If you live in the Nashville area you can pickup your poster purchase for free. Paypal does not offer a decent way of doing this automatically so you will be charged the regular $7.00 at checkout. If you would like to pick up your prints at the Familytree office, add a “Message to seller” in the Paypal checkout process indicating that you would like to pickup. After you pick up your purchase the difference will be refunded to you. Protective tubes will be available for pickup orders for $2.00.

Sorry for the potential inconvenience of this method, but it is currently a Paypal system limitation.
