You've still got time!


It's getting close to Christmas and we are getting lots of calls asking if it's too late to order prints in time to give as gifts. The answer is, you still have time!

This time of year, we strongly recommend choosing one of the FedEx shipping options.  Most of you choose USPS 1st Class, USPS Priority or Free Shipping when you order at iPrintfromHome.com.  Although the post office is generally very fast, please note that these are not guaranteed shipping options.  If you definitely need your order before Christmas, you might consider choosing one of the guaranteed FedEx shipping options when you place your order.

At iPrintfromHome.com, our standard turnaround time for Photographic Prints is as follows: if you place your order by 6am EST, we have it ready for shipping the same day, Monday through Saturday. Any order that comes in on Sunday will be shipped on Monday.

Please note that the turnaround time for Giclee Fine Art Prints is 3 business days (weekdays), and that the daily production cut-off is 6am EST.

Please also note that requesting foam and ultra mounting (or stretching) services can add up to 3 business days to your turnaround time.  Plak mounting can add up to 7 business days to your turnaround time.

If you're planning on ordering before the 23rd - which we would encourage (hint, hint) - please feel free to choose whichever shipping method meets your needs:

* USPS 1st Class - $3 (not recommended)
* USPS Priority - $7 (not recommended)
* FedEx Ground - $9.95
* FedEx Ground to Canada - $18
* FedEx 3-Day - $11.75
* FedEx 2-Day - $14.75
* FedEx Standard Overnight - $21.75
* FedEx Priority Overnight - $29.95
* FedEx Priority Saturday - $49.95

Here's what you need to do if you're really waiting until the last minute:
If you order Photographic Prints: Please place your order by 6am on December 23rd and choose FedEx Priority Overnight Saturday so that you receive your order on December 24th. NOTE: Requesting foam and ultra mounting and/or stretching service will add 3 days to your turnaround time.  Plak mounting will add 7 days to your turnaround time.

If you order photographic prints mounted to foam or ultra mount: Please place your order by 6am on December 20th and choose FedEx Priority Overnight Saturday so that you receive your order on December 24th

If you order plak mounted photographic prints: Please place your order by 6am on December 16th and choose FedEx Priority Overnight Saturday so that you receive your order on December 24th

If you order giclee or photo inkjet prints: Please place your order by 6am on December 21st and choose FedEx Priority Overnight Saturday so that you receive your order on December 24th. NOTE: Requesting foam and ultra mounting and/or stretching service will add 3 days to your turnaround time.  Plak mounting will add 7 days to your turnaround time.

If you order giclee or photo inkjet prints mounted to foam or ultra mount: Please place your order by 6am on December 16th and choose FedEx Priority Overnight Saturday so that you receive your order on December 24th

If you order a stretched canvas print: Please place your order by 6am on December 16th and choose FedEx Priority Overnight Saturday so that you receive your order on December 24th

At this point, it is too late to order plak mounted giclee or photo inkjet prints for guaranteed delivery by Christmas.

We will be closed December 24, 25 and 26.

Happy Holidays!!
