Question

What's the difference between production time and shipping time when ordering?

Answer

They are two separate clocks that add up to your in-hand date. You choose each one at a different step of the order.

  • Select both so the combined timeline meets your deadline.
  • Need it Friday? Pair 1-day production with 1-day shipping: finished and shipped the next business day to arrive Friday.
  • You are charged once. The two selections work together.
