Revision as of 12:11, 6 December 2005
Check here for any upcoming ordering deadlines. We will generally have a link to this page on the shopping cart page when deadlines are coming up.
Christmas 2005
Christmas is looking tricky this year because we don't have much cash in the till at the moment, which means we can't place a bunch of orders at the last possible minute the way we have done in past years. The situation may improve, though, and I will keep this page updated.
Deadlines are very different depending on whether your item is in stock or not. You can check on an item's in-stock status by going to the item's page (if you're looking at your shopping cart, click on the item's link).
In-Stock Deadlines
Generally, anything in stock can be shipped right up to the last moment; just allow enough time for it to get to you. We normally ship via USPS First Class for anything under a pound, and Priority for anything over. To estimate delivery times, go to the USPS Postage Calculator, enter a rough-guess weight (the weight generally does not affect the delivery time much except that items over a pound cannot be shipped via First Class, but must instead use Priority which is usually faster), and use 27705 as the "From ZIP Code". Add an extra day for processing on our side, to be safe. We can ship via USPS Express, and we will only charge for the actual postage.
Backorder Deadlines
These are deadlines for items not in stock.
Deadlines are broken down by manufacturer. If you have items in your cart, you can quickly tell which manufacturer they come from by looking at the first two letters of the catalog number.
Delivery in time for Dec. 25th is very likely for these manufacturers:
- MT - The Mountain:
- Details: They have no restock minimum, so I will place our final Mountain order as close to the 25th as possible (currently planning for 12/15).
- Bottom Line: December 15 for regular orders. Anything after that will have to be rushed in order to be sure to reach you by December 25; please email for more information.
- ZR - Zion Rootswear has been ordered, and it's unlikely we'll be placing another order with them before the end of the year.
- LB - Liquid Blue: I will be ordering from them first thing on Friday (12/9), so any orders placed before then will be delivered by December 24th as long as they are in stock at Liquid Blue.
- SD - Sun Dog I expect to place a Sun Dog order on Monday 12/12; any orders received by then will be delivered by December 24th as long as they are in stock at Sun Dog.
- EC - Earth Creations I am currently planning to place an order with them soon, hopefully 12/7 or 12/8.
