We have updated our shipping rates–including offsetting a U.S. rate raise with a cheaper alternative.
Overall, we’ve
- added Economy shipping for sending our books within the U.S.
- raised some of the Priority rates for shipping to our U.S. customers
- lowered some Canadian shipping rates and
- made our shipping fees to elsewhere in the world country-specific
Remember, we’re flexible. If you have questions or would like to inquire about a special bulk rate, email Erica at pjch381@gmail.com.
U.S. Shipping Rate Changes
Due to ever-rising U.S. postage rates, we’ve had to raise our Priority Mail (1-3 days) shipping fees for packages containing more than two (2) books.
This has also prompted us to add a less expensive alternative for domestic customers: Economy Shipping. In most, but not all, cases, this means USPS Media Mail (2-8 days).
Canada Shipping Rate Changes
We’ve lowered the shipping rates on more than two (2+) books heading to Canada.

Rates for Elsewhere in the World are Now Country-Specific
Shipping costs from the U.S. to countries outside the U.S. and Canada have become extremely variable. We’ve had to change our rates accordingly. Here’s the rate chart. Or if you’d like a quote for your country’s rates before shopping, email Erica at pjch381@gmail.com.
In many cases, we have also switched from using the United States Postal Service (USPS) to using United Parcel Service (UPS). UPS is often more reliable, faster, and cheaper than USPS.
