We use the US Postal Service (Delivery Confirmed) for most of our shipments. From time to time we will use Federal Express especially for customers requesting fast turn around. Please see our shipping policy page for additonal details. Sorry we cannot ship to post office boxes, APO and FPO addresses. EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE WE HAVE BACKORDERS. WE WILL CONTACT YOU BY E-MAIL SHOULD THIS OCCUR WITH AN ESTIMATED TIMETABLE. EVERY EFFORT WILL BE MADE TO TURN AROUND BACKORDERS WITHIN THREE WEEKS. If this is not acceptable you may cancel your order. Often we run a promotion where shipping costs on Hair Bun Covers are "free." When this is in place if our customer combines purchases with other items outside of the Hair Bun Cover category the cost of shipping follows the rates established for the purchase based on the total dollar value of the other items. Our shipping costs reflect a small handiling charge to cover the cost of packaging.
