HOW DO I GET A BETTER SHIPPING PRICE?

Many people not only want a well priced quality product but the best possible way to save on shipping, while gettign their purchase in a timely manner. We want that for you too! Here are some ideas to keep in mind.

  • Shipping is based on the weight of your order to ship from New York City to your shipping address. USPS 1st Class Shipping will be your most economical choice on orders of ten or fewer prints to the USA. USPS First Class International is the comparable international choice. These are good, economical modes if you do not have a deadline.
  • Orders of large quantities of photo prints, of picture frames or of greeting cards will almost always be cheaper to ship via UPS / FedEx Ground rather than the USPS. UPS / FedEx Ground also have date definite in transit times, as shown in the following table:

  • Orders of photos 12x18 inches and larger incur an oversize packing charge after you checkout (it doesn't show in the cart, but the prices are listed there). This covers the higher expenses of larger boxes, extra protective cardboard, and freight oversize charges that we incur.
  • The West Coast and Southwest of the USA are more expensive to ship to since we are in the Northeast. This is especially true for express shipping.
  • Multiple orders placed on the same day may be combined for a reduced shipping price, so don't hesitate to call us at 212-228-6294 M-F 11am-7pm. If we can save you money, we will!
  • If you are in New York City, you can pick-up your order. We'd love to meet you! Always call first though for updated hours of operation.
