Book orders placed through our print department typically take between 3–6 weeks from the date of payment to be printed, shipped and delivered. Orders through our print partners in China can take anywhere from 8–12 weeks to arrive, though for some books, such as short children's books, the timeline can be 4–6 weeks if air shipping is feasible.
Please note that we are unable to guarantee these timelines as the print partners we work with can sometimes experience setbacks in their production timelines. Furthermore, printing and shipping timelines are dependent upon the location of the printer, delivery address, quantity ordered, and whether the book is bound in hardcover or paperback.
To avoid unnecessary stress, we strongly recommend that you wait to finalize event dates, such as book launches or book signings, until you have the printed copies in hand.
