You will likely have noticed the comment when you finish your purchase on our website "Please allow 4 weeks for delivery". Wow, that's a long time isn't it? The fact is you generally will get your order much quicker, in fact, sometimes we can ship the same day as your order is received. The reason for the 4 week statement is that we travel to find the items we offer here. Since we do not have a 1-800-Send-us-stuff number we use to resupply our inventory we have to resort to other means. That often requires us to be on the road for up to several weeks at a time looking for new goodies to place on the site. We appreciate your patience and understanding in this matter and we would like you to also know that we never charge your credit card or cash your check until your item is in the box ready to go out to you.
