Shipping Restrictions
*****Shipping cost as 18.5% NOT included in original
price*****
Warranty issues and manufacturer restrictions prevent us from shipping certain products
to all geographical locations. You'll be notified while placing your order if we're
unable to ship specific items to the address you've selected. Below are some general
guidelines for items shipped by Amazon.com to the following destinations:
- APO/FPO Address
- U.S.Protectorates (including Puerto Rico)
- Prisons
APO/FPO Addresses
Most items can be shipped to APO/FPO addresses, except:
- cell phones and service
- computers
- furniture
- grocery items
- outdoor living items
- Target@Amazon.com items
Additionally, some apparel, camera and photo, electronics, health and personal care,
housewares, jewelry, software, sports, and tools and hardware items cannot be shipped
to APO/FPO addresses.
U.S. Protectorates (including
Puerto Rico)
Only the following items can be shipped to U.S. Protectorates:
- baby items
- books
- DVDs
- music
- software
- toys
- VHS videos
- video games
Prisons
We deliver to penitentiaries, but we strongly suggest you contact
the prison first to confirm that they accept deliveries and to note any special
regulations the prison might have. Some prisons don't allow delivery of hardcover
books. Others place a limit on the number of items contained in a package.
We're unable to affix any special labels or instructions to the packages and on
the outside will indicate only the destination address, our company name, and our
return address. We also cannot allow gifts to be sent anonymously to inmates; the
sender's billing address will appear on the order invoice.
Because inmates cannot sign for deliveries, packages must be sent via U.S. Mail.
While Amazon.com often sends packages via U.S. Mail, we also use UPS, FedEx, and
Airborne/DHL. Unfortunately, there is no way for customers to request a specific
shipper. To avoid delivery problems, you might consider having the items shipped
to you and then shipping them to the penitentiary via U.S. Mail.
