However, because it is cheap, it is slower than other choices. Packages shipped via Media Mail are trucked overland (no air), so you can generally estimate how long it will take for a package to reach you based on how far you are from me (New York). Based on customer response, it seems as if destinations along the East Coast take a week. West Coast destinations take approximately 14 days. Hawaii and Alaska take a minimum of 1 month. Times may also increase if there is bad weather along the route, especially during the winter. Remember, there are no guarantees on delivery time. Occasionally things get lost. If you need something in a timely manner, please use Priority.ProblemsIf there are any problems with your order, please contact me. I try to work things out with all of my customers to make sure everyone is as happy as possible with their purchase and experience.
