SHIPPING POLICY

Shipping Prices

Skippingropes.com offers real-time shipping estimates where possible. The shipping times do not include assembly time for custom orders which may take up to two (2) weeks. Refer to individual product descriptions for details.

Skippingropes.com does not mark up the shipping rates we get from our shipping suppliers -- we simply pass the cost along to our customers.  We are a small business so we are not able to offer the same low-cost shipping options as big box stores and major internet sellers.

No Signature Required

Our default is to not have customers sign for packages.  If you are concerned about missing packages please let us know and we will make sure that a signature is required.  An additional fee may apply.

Priority Shipping

Priority shipping is available with a surcharge applied. For additional details, please contact us directly.

International Orders

International Orders (e.g., Asia, Europe etc) shipped by "Surface" via the Canadian postal service can take 4 to 12 weeks depending on the destination.

Air shipping is also available (takes about 5-10 days) via Canada Post and DHL.

NOTE: If you send an inquiry about an order already shipped, please include your order confirmation number and order date.

Offline Orders

When you go to Checkout you will be given different payment options, including those that do not require real-time processing. Should you choose one of these payment options, your order WILL NOT be shipped until payment has been received and processed.

For payment by cheque, your order WILL NOT be shipped until the cheque has cleared the bank. This may take up to six weeks for international cheques. Bank drafts are preferred in these circumstances so that we can ship your product immediately.  For additional details, please contact us directly.

Custom Beaded Ropes

Custom ropes are available online through our Custom Ropes category. Custom beaded ropes in either single or long rope lengths, half-cut or regular length beads may require up to 2 weeks for preparation prior to shipping.
