International Shipping
International shipping is a valuable means of serving the urgent and pressing needs of buyers by enabling international buyers to purchase goods from overseas.
Expected Delivery Times
There are two options for international shipping:
- International Standard: Buyers may expect to receive their orders in 3-6 weeks after shipping, depending on customs requirements.
- International Expedited: Buyers may expect to receive their orders in 3-7 business days after shipping, depending on customs requirements.
Carriers
Sellers may use any carrier of their choosing to deliver their products, as long as the expected delivery time schedule is met.
Note: Sellers may offer buyers other delivery options as well, including Domestic Standard Shipping, Domestic Expedited Shipping, Domestic Two-Day Shipping, and Domestic One-Day Shipping.
