Shipping Deadlines for the Holidays

Hi Everyone

With the holiday season in full stride it’s important that you keep in mind the last shipping dates to ensure orders get to your customers before Christmas. We have listed our recommended last shipping dates below, however please keep in mind that each supplier and carrier company are different.

As part of your marketing efforts, we highly recommend that you place holiday shipping dates onto your stores as it ensures that expectations are met and it has also been shown to help increase conversions.

Recommended holiday shipping dates to ensure Christmas delivery:

1. Recommended last day for standard shipping:  December 16th, 2009
2. Recommended last day for expedited shipping:  December 20th, 2009

(Please note:  These dates do not represent a guarantee.  They present the timeframe for a reasonable expectation of delivery only.)

All dates are based on shipping to the continental United States (excluding Alaska).  For shipping to Canada:  Expect delays on all cross-border shipments.  Be sure to give yourself enough time.

Happy Selling.
