Retail Order Information & Retail Support

We are currently operating. In light of the ongoing novel coronavirus pandemic and our efforts to slow the spread however, our fulfillment times may be slowed. Please allow 4-5 business days in handling on all orders prior to shipping at this time. Quoted shipping speeds begin only once an order leaves our warehouse. Please also be aware that carriers are still experiencing delays and quoted shipping times are not guaranteed. We thank you for your patience and understanding during this unprecedented time as we continue to prioritize the health and safety of our employees.

Hasn't Arrived- International Economy Mail

Parcels shipped using International Economy Mail can take up to 14 business days (or 20 days total) to arrive. If it has been 20 days or less, try to wait patiently--it could be right around the corner! If it has been more than 20 days, shoot us an email and we will figure out what happened. You can also try calling your local post office and see if for some reason the package had any hang ups locally.


Hasn't Arrived - Domestic Economy Mail

Economy Mail takes approximately 4-8 business days to arrive. If it has been less than 8 days since your order has shipped, please be patient-- it is probably on its way! If it has been more than 8 days since it was shipped, please contact us and we'll see if there have been any problems regarding the shipment.

How do I purchase a digital download? How does it work?

To purchase a digital download, add a digital download to your shopping cart just like anything other item in the store.

When you purchase a digital download, the store will generate a unique link for you to download the file. You're going to want to keep it to yourself, as you have a limited amount of downloads.

 

The link should show up in 3 places

  1. The secret link appears on the order confirmation screen, immediately after purchase.
  2. The secret link is included in the order confirmation e-mail.
  3. The secret link shows up on your oder screen when logged into the website.

Your download will be limited to 3 clicks and 30 days. Be patient, it may take a moment to start your download. Clicking multiple times may exhaust your 3 clicks.

Movies are *.mov files, while audio are *.mp3 files. All files are compressed into a *.zip archive.

 

Can I download the file onto my iPad, phone, or other device?

Yes, but not directly by using the iPad, phone, or other device.

For the iPad or iPhone, you must first download the file to your computer. Then you can add the file to your iTunes to sync to your device.

Some devices may offer the ability to download it. As it is a large file, extracting the file may have some issues on a mobile device.
