Shipping Policy

SECTION 1

Order Fulfillment Services

There are 2 lead times to consider for every order:

a. Fulfillment and transit times
At Theory 47, the fulfillment process includes the following: importing orders from our online store, packaging, and leaving a package ready for carrier pickup. Theory 47 has a maximum lead time of 2 business days to achieve the above. This means that if an order is received by Theory 47 on Monday, it will be ready for pickup by Wednesday at the latest. If an order is received by Theory 47 on a Friday, it will be ready for pickup by Tuesday of the following week at the latest, and so forth. Under exceptional circumstances, such as but not limited to: unexpected order fulfillment volume surge, shortage of fulfillment staff members, software or technical issues, and/or connection issues for your online store, this lead time could be extended with or without previous and formal notice.
In addition to the 2 business days for fulfillment, you need to consider the *estimated transit times for the order to be delivered by the carrier to Our Clients. Theory 47 is not a shipping carrier, and thus we rely on the carriers below for our shipping operations on behalf of our online store:
- USPS Domestic (US): estimated of 3-7 business days.
- UPS Domestic (US): estimated of 3-5 business days.
- GlobalPost (International): estimated 10-14 business days.
- UPS Worldwide (International): estimated 10-14 business days.

*This is an estimation provided by the carriers, and thus it is not a guarantee. Therefore, the transit times may be shorter or longer based on several logistical factors such as weather, work force shortage or strikes, order volume surge due to holidays, etc.

Below, you will find estimated lead times (Fulfillment + Transit) This is to help ensure Our Clients know what to expect at the time of purchase:
- USPS Domestic (US): 5-9 business days approx.
- UPS Domestic (US): 5-7 business days approx.
- GlobalPost (International): 12-16 business days approx.
- UPS Worldwide (International): estimated 12-16 business days.

SECTION 5

How to track an order that has been shipped?

a. Once Theory 47 receives an order from Our Clients, as part of our fulfillment process, we create and print the shipping label to start the order preparation. b. Once this shipping label is created and printed, the email that you provided at the time of purchase will receive an automated email listing the order and tracking information. This is an automated process. c. For all shipping methods, once the order ships, the tracking number will update automatically through the carrier's website and not through Theory 47. d. Theory 47 is not a carrier and does not control nor oversee the tracking of packages. e. We will do all that we can to send all purchased items in the same package, limiting the number of tracking numbers associated with any given order. f. If the items of the orders do not fit into our largest single box, up to 20x12x12, Theory 47 will split the order for shipment. g. When shipping internationally, customs can delay packages by up to 6 weeks. This does not happen often, but it can happen. Theory 47 has no control and absorbs no logistical or financial responsibility in such situations. Theory 47 takes no responsibility for the taxes and/or fees due at import. This is your responsibility as the buyer of goods.
