Shipping

Where prints go, what it costs, and how long it takes.

What it costs

Prints leave the studio within five business days of the order.

Canada714 business days$18
Rest of world1021 business days$32

One flat rate per order, however many prints are in it. Prices are in US dollars, and this is the same table checkout charges from.

Where it goes

The rates above are the whole list, and they are the rates checkout charges — the page you are reading and the page you pay on read the same table, so they cannot drift apart.

The country list behind each zone is long but not endless. If your country is not offered at checkout, write to me and I will see what it would cost.

When it leaves

Prints are made to order, so add printing time to the delivery estimate. The line above the rates says how long that takes.

The estimates are business days from the day it is posted, and they are estimates rather than promises.

How it is packed

Prints ship rolled in a rigid tube, unframed, interleaved with tissue. A tube survives the post far better than a flat parcel, and it keeps the cost of sending a large print sane.

Give a rolled print a day or two flat under a book before framing and it will lie down.

Tracking

You get an email when the parcel goes out.

Not yet written: [TO FILL IN: who you post with and whether tracking is included. For example: “Everything goes USPS, tracked within the United States and by international tracked post elsewhere; the tracking number is in the shipping email.”]

Customs, duties and import VAT

For orders outside the United States, the price you pay here is the print and the postage, and nothing else. No import duty, customs charge or local sales tax is collected at checkout.

That means your own country may charge you something when the parcel arrives, and the carrier may add a handling fee for collecting it. Those charges are yours, not mine, and I cannot tell you in advance what they will be — it depends on where you live and what the parcel is worth.

Parcels are declared honestly, at what you paid, as printed artwork. I will not under-declare a parcel or mark it as a gift.

Not yet written: [TO FILL IN: whether you are registered to collect import VAT anywhere — UK VAT, EU IOSS, an Australian GST registration. If you are, say so here and delete the paragraph above that says nothing is collected, because it stops being true.]

If it does not arrive

Wait until the estimate for your zone has passed, then write. The returns page says what happens next: a parcel that is genuinely lost is reprinted and resent at my cost.

A note on addresses

The address is collected by Stripe on its payment page, not here, and that is the address the parcel goes to. Check it there, because it is much easier to change before the label is printed than after.
