Do You Ship Nationwide, And How Long Does Shipping Take?

Because photo magnets are a physical, hand-pressed product rather than a digital download, shipping is a genuine part of the customer experience, and being a nationwide shipper means accounting for the full range of transit times across the country rather than assuming every customer is local.

Standard shipping carriers generally move packages coast to coast within about a week under normal conditions, though customers closer to our production location may see faster transit than customers on the opposite coast. Weather events, carrier delays, and seasonal shipping volume (particularly around major holidays) can occasionally extend transit time beyond typical estimates, which is part of why building in a buffer ahead of any hard deadline matters more during busy shipping seasons like the December holidays.

For customers ordering around a specific date, whether a birthday, holiday, or wedding, it's worth accounting for both the production time (see the previous FAQ) and shipping transit time together as one combined window, rather than assuming shipping alone will be fast regardless of when an order is placed.

• Double check your shipping address for accuracy at checkout, an incorrect or incomplete address is one of the most common causes of delayed delivery.
• During December and other high-volume shipping periods, build in extra buffer time beyond the typical estimate.
• If you're shipping to a P.O. box, confirm that's supported for your specific order, since some shipping methods have restrictions on P.O. box delivery.
• Consider your specific region's typical transit time when planning around a deadline, customers farther from our production location should build in a bit more buffer.
• Use the tracking number provided once your order ships (see the next FAQ) to monitor progress rather than guessing.

A customer on the West Coast ordering ahead of a December holiday gift deadline built in extra time specifically because she knew holiday shipping volume can add delay beyond typical transit estimates, and her order arrived comfortably ahead of her gift-giving date despite the seasonal shipping crunch.

Snapped Memory Magnets ships nationwide, and while most customers see delivery within one to two weeks combined production and shipping time, building in extra buffer during holiday seasons or for a hard deadline is always the safer approach.
