Please CHOOSE USPS Media Mail, it is almost always the cheapest option, and under normal circumstances arrives within 8 days for domestic shipments.
For international shipments, we have options not listed, including shipment via boat, which takes 2-4 weeks for delivery, but is substantially cheaper than other options. There are also last-minute FedEx rates which if available can be as low as 20% of the standard FedEx rate. Please contact us at info@fonsvitae.com to get a quote for your order.
FOR Dubai & UAE residents: USPS does not send books to your location, please choose UPS, FedEx or other courier only
Note: For overseas shipments (priority & priority express) please be aware that the package can legally be held by US customs for up to 30 days, and that you are responsible for paying any customs duties, which are not included in your payment to Fons Vitae.
Please Read – Major Delays with United States Postal Service (USPS)
Since December of 2024, there have been widespread problems with the delivery of items sent via USPS. Many times the packages arrive on time, but far too often packages are either significantly delayed or lost. Therefore, we suggest you consider UPS for shipping, rather than USPS. Please feel free to contact us for UPS rates, both domestic and international, that will be lower than those shown in the ‘shipping options’ section above.
