Shipping policy
Please review our shipping policies carefully.
If you have any questions, just let me know using the chat or email admin@likelytale.com, and I'll be happy to help.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Herbarium Book is made to order and ships separately from any other items directly from the printer. There is no way for me to combine shipping on these. The good news, though, is that this also dramatically reduces the book's carbon footprint.
Shipping Frequency.
Orders are shipped twice a week. (Typically, Tuesdays and Fridays)
You want your package fast, And I want to get to you as fast as possible, so I'll do everything I can to ensure your items get to you as quickly as possible. ❤️
Please note -there are, at times, delays, and while I do everything that I can to prevent delays from happening, once your items are in the shipping carrier's hands, we have no control over the length of time it takes to arrive.
Shipping Destinations
We ship to everywhere Canada Post ships to! We are fully integrated with Canada Post - and all information calculated in your cart should be accurate and up to date, though we cannot guarantee it.
Shipping rates can vary depending on location and the requested speed of delivery. All art prints are shipped in rigid mailers of the appropriate size matching the print (typically 6”x8” or 11”x13”). Other store items, including tarot decks are shipping in boxes with protective filling.
Shipping Cost Estimates
The shipping rates typically vary between $10-$30, again depending on the speed of service selected and the location. You can view the shipping rate in your cart before purchase.
Shipping Carrier Information
All packages will be shipped via Canada Post at your requested service level. Costs and speed are estimated at check out.
There may be delays through customs for international shipments as they are also backlogged. However, the classification of art prints usually moves pretty quickly!
Duties and taxes
Currently, most items in the store do not incur duties and taxes to most locations, but I strongly recommend double-checking with your receiving country. The package value is declared and matches the purchase price. Depending on tariffs and duties your country may have placed, you may be charged a small fee for the package, though as of June 30, 2020 - there is no Tarif schedule set on original art or small reproductions in most countries.
!! Duty fees or taxes charged though rare, are your responsibility. !!
