FAQ
Our Shopping Cart
The most common challenge with our shopping cart is our address verification system, which creates a safe shopping environment by assuring that the person using your credit card is you. If you enter an address in the billing field that does not match what your bank has on file for you (street & zip), the card will be rejected. For more about secure shopping please see the bottom of this page.
 
International Orders
Due to the address verification system mentioned above, the easiest way to process orders from outside of the US is to complete the checkout process up to the confirmation page and if an error message is received when the order is submitted online, email the complete contents of the confirmation page (your cart contents, billing address, contact information and credit card info) to "ote [at] custompaper.com." Your order will be processed by hand offline. For our customers overseas, please note that not every country will allow live seeds embedded in paper through customs.

Shipping Methods

We pack carefully to ensure your purchases arrive in perfect condition. We always insure your UPS package at full value. With UPS you will receive a tracking number to watch the progress of your shipments if you have provided a valid email address. USPS packages only ship with delivery confirmation, no tracking information is available.

The map below shows the expected travel time from Seattle to you. Travel time is business days, not including weekend days.

Ground Service is always our first choice for your wedding invitation package. Faster shipments are possible via UPS 3 Day Select, 2nd Day and Overnight. We do offer USPS which has good prices and fast service but no guaranteed delivery date. If you pick USPS as your carrier we suggest you insure the package so that we can help if you need to file a claim.

Our standard shipping and handling rates range from $6.50 to $18 depending on weight, speed, distance, value and service selected.

You can estimate the costs if you put items in your shopping cart and proceed to checkout, no credit card information is necessary to see the shipping rates, just your zip code is required. Paper is light, most of our shipments are under 10#.

All UPS shipments are sent requiring a signature; the driver will not release the package without that signature. USPS shipments valued over $100 may require a signature. Please be sure to provide a shipping address where there will be someone to sign for the package.

Additional Shipping Fees:

If UPS has to correct the address you provide, there will be $19 charged to your credit card at the time we are billed by UPS for the address correction, this and all shipping charges are not refundable. If you have provided an inaccurate or incomplete address for USPS packages it will void your insurance and we will be unable to assist you with a loss or damage claim. For waiving signature there is a $6.50 fee, but it voids any liability for the package. You can add this to your order with the button at the bottom of this page.

We are not responsible for delays due to incomplete or incorrect addresses.

Please be sure to give us your complete and correct street address....UPS cannot ship to a post office box address.

 

International Shipping

International orders are accepted but shipping options are limited and brokerage fees and duties are the customers responsibility. Additional handling fees may apply. Click here to view brokerage rates. When making payment online with your credit card, your payment will not clear if the billing address does not match the address on file with your bank. We do not provide free samples outside of the states. For orders being shipped to Canada please select UPS Standard or USPS Global Priority Mail as the shipping method. For orders outside of the US and Canada please select UPS Expedited, UPS Worldwide Express or USPS Global Priority Mail for proper calculation of shipping costs.

 

Damaged Goods:

If you receive your order in damaged condition, have the UPS/USPS driver inspect the contents with you. If there is damage have the UPS/USPS driver verify the damage. Please then notify us to begin the claim process. You must retain all of the packing material and contents in case UPS/USPS needs to assess the damage.

 

 

 

 

 

Returns

We accept returns on many but not all items. Please contact us prior to returning an item for a return authorization and to assure proper handling. Proper packing material is a must on all returned items, they must reach us in original condition and properly marked or be subject to refusal. Credits for returned items may be in the form of a PayPal payment, a return to your credit card or a check. All returns are subject to a 3% payment processing fee. Email or call us before you make your purchase to ensure a return is possible. Custom items are not returnable. If you are unsure, ask! All returns must be authorized within 7 days and reach us within 30 days from delivery date.

Before you make a purchase we recommend you request a sample. Computer monitors do not show true colors. Really, we like to send samples!

For damaged or missing items claims must be made within 7 days. We will respond quickly in correcting the trouble. Please do look through your package carefully before calling as most often the item has just been overlooked. For ribbon yardage, we ship multiple purchases combined on one spool for protection in transit. UPS offers a delivery date guarantee but claims must be made within a week of the original expected delivery date for a refund to be issued.
