Shipping
For the 2026 Holiday Season
Please consider ordering gifts as early as possible! We usually ship within 48 hours Monday through Friday.
- Media Mail/UPS Ground shipping: 5-10 business days
- USPS Priority Mail: 2-3 business days (delivery dates no longer guaranteed by USPS)
- International Priority Mail: The sooner the better! USPS says 6-10 business days, but that seems to be highly variable.
Non-holiday shipping
We offer Media Mail shipping (2-9 business days in transit) for U.S. customers (unfortunately postal rate increases necessitate excluding HI and AK), as well as USPS priority mail (2-3 business days), and International USPS service (transit times may vary). Shipping times are estimates provided by the post office, but are not guaranteed. UPS and Fed-Ex may be available upon request. Please email us with shipping questions or requests at tachyon [@] tachyonpublications.com.
