Domestic Shipping

Sock Insurance

Please consider purchasing insurance at checkout to insure that if your package goes missing in transit or is damaged we can reship the items or refund your payment! Does not cover stolen packages. Without insurance we cannot guarantee refunds or replacements.

Insurance cost is $3USD for domestic orders.

Please contact us at orders@sock-dreams.com to report your package missing. All domestic requests for reimbursement for lost parcels MUST be made within 60 days of the shipment date.

Please bear in mind that we can only reship or refund your order one time under this insurance policy. If your replacement package is also lost in transit, we will be unable to send a third shipment. 

Domestic Shipping Rates

Our domestic orders ship via U.S Postal Service.
Most packages ship within 24 hours except on weekends and holidays.

FREE Shipping: We offer free shipping for all orders placed online and shipped to U.S. addresses. Most orders will be shipped via USPS Ground Advantage. Delivery will be within 3-5 business days in most cases. Please allow up to 10 business days for delivery to Alaska, Hawaii, and remote areas without reliable postal service.

If you are in the U.S., and you absolutely, positively require your package within a week, we highly recommend that you upgrade to Priority Mail Express! 

These are estimated times that start from the day we ship the order, not the day you place it.

We ship in plain packages. The return address shows our company name as Sock Dreams. This can be changed by selecting the Discreet Shipping option at checkout, or by emailing us at orders@sock-dreams.com. No sensitive credit card information appears on our invoices.

US Military Mail

We ship to US Military Mail addresses with free shipping and at no extra charge.

During checkout, simply enter APO, FPO or DPO as your city, then select one of the six “Armed Forces” options in the drop-down menu for your state. The option you choose will depend on the location of the US Military Mail recipient and also the carrier route used for sorting the mail. Those options are:

AE (ZIPs 09xxx) for Armed Forces Europe, Canada, Middle East, and Africa

AP (ZIPs 96xxx ) for Armed Forces Pacific

AA (ZIPs 34xxx) for Armed Forces Americas

For example, if the last line of your address was “APO, AP 96351″ you would select “Armed Forces Pacific”. Please note that Signature Confirmation is not available for military mail.

US Military Mail delivery times vary greatly and are beyond our control. For non-US military, standard International Shipping information and rates apply.

International Shipping

Package Insurance is not available for international shipments at this time.

International orders ship Monday through Friday, via USPS.

Please allow up to 60 business days (approximately 12 weeks) for delivery, as there are many factors which can delay international mail, chief among them being the Customs service of the destination country.

Please allow up to 48 hours from the time we send your tracking number to you until the tracking system updates and starts tracking your package.

International Shipping Rates

First-Class International: Delivery timeframes (not including customs processing) and tracking updates vary depending on the country.

Customs Fees and Import Taxes

Your country may collect dues upon delivery. Our DBA 'Indigo Shadows' name is used for international shipments and if custom/import fees are owed this name may be listed on the invoice.

Currently, orders shipped to the UK are pre-collectively taxed 20% VAT tax. Orders shipped to Norway are pre-collectively taxed 25% VAT tax. These taxes are not included in our shipping fees. If you do not live in Norway or the UK, please contact your local post office or Customs department for more information on your country's import taxes. 

Remember, estimated shipping timeframes do not account for the time it takes for your package to get through Customs. It can sometimes take weeks for Customs to release a package. We cannot guarantee timely arrivals of international orders; order internationally at your own risk. We cannot control whether the national post of the destination country requires a signature for delivery.

Once the package gets to your country, Customs will analyze it, determine if there are duties due, and then pass it on to your national postal service.

We are legally required to include a Customs form which includes the names and value of the merchandise being mailed.
It is against company policy to declare purchases as gifts or alter the declared value for a customer. We ship discreetly in plain packages, but we must declare our originating address for Customs clearance.  No sensitive credit card information appears on our invoices.

Brazil, India, Indonesia, Nigeria, Philippines, Qatar, Romania, Guatemala, Mexico, South Africa, and Russia.
*To make arrangements for shipping to these countries, please contact us -- note that we may be unable to accommodate these requests due to increased order volume November - January.

Afghanistan, Belarus, Bhutan, Brunei, Laos, Myanmar, Niue, Russia, Sudan, South Sudan, Syria, Turkmenistan, Yemen. Unless otherwise noted, service suspensions to a particular country do not affect delivery of military and diplomatic mail.
