    *Updates*

    Hello! We are currently adhering to public health guidelines to ensure the safety of our staff at our facilities. Please allow 5-12 business days for your order to ship.

    Our partnering shipping companies are currently experiencing delays due to an influx of shipment demands--we apologize in advance for the inconvenience. We will post the newest notice as they are made available, so please stay tuned to this page for recent announcements.

      

    SHIPPING & DELIVERY 

    How much does shipping cost?

    For domestic shipments, any purchase at or over $50 USD ships free. Orders totaling under $50 at checkout are charged $6.99 (Domestic only, * except Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Guam). International orders do not qualify for free shipping and charges will vary depending on the size and destination of the shipment.

     

    Do you ship internationally, and if so, to which countries?

    Yes! We ship to most countries worldwide. Please visit our page titled, “Shipping” to check which countries we currently ship to (link to page: https://store.linefriends.com/pages/shipping).

    **Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, shipping regions are subject to change.

     

    When will my order ship?

    On average, orders take 2 business days to be fully processed and dispatched from our warehouse.

    **As a friendly reminder, packing and shipping duration can be subject to delays during promotions or the holiday season, when we receive more orders than usual. To avoid extensive delays, we suggest that you place your order ahead of the holiday season. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.

     

    Will I get a tracking number?

    Yes! You will be sent a tracking number via email when your package is ready to be shipped.

     

    Why is my tracking number invalid?

    Your tracking number may appear invalid because your package is yet to be dispatched from our warehouse. The progress of your package will be made available to you once the package has been accepted by our carriers and scanned through their facility.

     

    When can I track my order?

    You can begin tracking your order once your package is issued a tracking number. Once issued, tracking info can take up to 5 business days to be updated.

     

    Why can’t I track my order / No update?

    Tracking updates may be delayed during its journey because your package is waiting to be processed through shipment facilities along the way. Additional delays are common when packages are transferred from one shipping service to another, especially in the case of international shipments where parcels are passed through customs and transferred to the origin post of the destination country. In domestic shipments, this delay typically resolves within a few days.

     

    Package Not Delivered / Lost

    For issues with tracking or delivery, the fastest way to resolve the issue is to reach out directly to the shipping company.
    Please note that parcels are sometimes marked “Delivered” before delivery is completed; in some cases, parcels are unable to reach the receiver because couriers need additional information to complete the delivery. Remember to check with your neighbors, family members, and/or apartment managers to ensure that your parcel was not received by someone else by mistake or placed in an unseen location.

    If your issues still remain unresolved after reaching out to the shipping companies, please contact us at dl_support@linefriends.com.

     

    Can you ship to a PO box?

    Unfortunately, we are unable to ship to a PO Box location for any U.S. Territory or international address. Any orders that include a P.O. Box will be canceled without notice.

     

    Who pays for duties and taxes?

    Our prices do not include duties, value-added taxes, or miscellaneous fees. If assessed, these charges are the responsibility of the package recipient, who will be billed by their local customs office. Please keep this in mind when shipping a gift item to a destination outside of the U.S. You may be contacted by your local carrier prior to delivery to settle outstanding duties, taxes, or fees.

     

    More on Customs

    For goods shipped internationally, please note that any manufacturing warranty may not be valid; manufacturer service options  may not be available; manuals, instructions, and safety warnings may not be in destination country’s language; the goods and accompanying materials may not be designed in accordance with destination country’s standards specifications and labelling requirements; and the goods may not conform to destination country’s voltage (requiring the use of an adapter or converter). The customer is responsible for assuring the goods are lawfully imported to the destination country. When ordering from our site, the recipient is the importer on record and must comply with all the laws and regulations of the destination country.
