Shipping
We ship to any address in the world via United States Postal Service and Federal Express shipping options. Shipping costs are calculated during checkout, and multiple options are offered. In general, please do not email asking for shipping quotes. Create an order, and the shipping options and costs will be shown on the checkout page.
We apologize, but given the variable nature and rules concerning VAT/GST/Customs/etc. charges, our shipping calculations cover only the costs incurred to physically move the merchandise to your location.
Given the high costs of shipping overseas, we offer a cheaper shipping option for PCB-only International orders. Please email us for details.
We typically ship twice weekly, Wednesday and Saturday, though some items have longer fulfillment times:
- Low volume unpopulated PCBs are ordered in batches. Shipment timing depends on when enough orders are received to order a batch of boards.
- Minimally hand assembled items (such as JiffyDOS ROMs) are programmed and switches hand attached after order and thus can take 1 week to fulfill.
- Non stock unassembled items, like C=Key and PS2Encoder kits, do not always have stock on hand and thus may take 2 weeks to fulfill
- Fully hand assembled items, like C=Key and PS2Encoder, are soldered in batches and can require 4-5 weeks to ship (this time would include any parts ordering requirements)
If we will be away from the office for any length of time, we will note the delay on the store web site. However, if timing is important, please email us before placing an order to ensure timely delivery.
Federal Express shipping options are primarily for International customers. Most first class and priority mail will take no more than 3 days to continental US locations. However, if you wish to ship overnight or 2nd day air via Fedex, please let us know before placing the order so we can ensure the order is filled in a timely manner.
