Free Shipping on Shipments of $50 or More
Place a shipment of $50 or more, and we'll send it via No Rush Economy Mail free of charge.

Guidelines:
  • Books ordered from our stores and local warehouse are automatically sent separately from books ordered from our remote warehouse. This "split order" allows us to expedite your order and get your books to you as quickly as possible.
  • Please note that orders containing only items from the remote warehouse are not eligible for store pickup.
  • Shipping time is calculated in business days (weekdays, not including holidays) after your order is processed.
  • Orders will be shipped when all available items have been gathered. In-stock items will not be shipped individually.
  • Shipping costs and applicable taxes do not count toward the $50 minimum.
  • Only orders sent via Economy Mail within the United States and U.S. territories are eligible for this special offer. This offer does not apply to orders placed with Standard options, 3 Day Express, 2nd Day Air, Next Day Air, International Standard, International Expedited, or International Express.
  • Preorders and backorders: Because books "on order" ship when available, shipping charges for these items are applied individually per title. Preorders and backorders do not count toward the total of your in-stock order.
