The P.R.A.Y. Program

Shipping Policy for Books

Shipping Policy for Books
P.R.A.Y. will process your order within two business days of receipt. But while we guarantee a very quick turnaround time, book orders are sent Media Mail through the US Post Office and we cannot guarantee a specific delivery date through Media Mail. You may choose to upgrade your shipping for faster delivery. Shipping to other than the continental US (including APO, FPO and US Territories) will require additional fees. See below for specific information.

Standard Postage/Handling Fee for books provides Media Mail service through the United States Postal Service. It is a Book Rate, which means it is slower than First Class Mail (USPS.com indicates 2-9 days for delivery, however delivery times may vary, especially during holiday seasons). 

Calculate Standard Handling Fee:

1 book  = $2.65
2 or more books = $3.50 plus $.15 per book (Click here for Price Chart)
100 or more books = $18.50

Additional Shipping Options (Please note that these charges for expedited shipping are in addition to the Standard Handling Fee.)

Priority Mail is provided through the United States Postal Service. Packages are usually delivered within 2-3 business days (but this is not a guaranteed delivery time).  The cost for Priority Mail depends upon the number of books ordered.  There is a Flat Rate Priority Envelope for an additional $7.00, and a Flat Rate Priority Box for an additional $13.00.   

Ground Service is offered for Street Addresses ONLY, FedEx will NOT deliver to PO Boxes. Note this is Ground Service, NOT overnight.  See below for Expedited Shipping. Deliveries are made Monday through Friday - No Weekend Deliveries. Please visit www.fedex.com for transit times from zip code 63123.  The cost to upgrade to FedEx Ground is an additional $14.00.

Expedited Shipping - Only available by contacting the P.R.A.Y. office for rate quote.  Orders will be delivered in 1 or 2 days depending on your zip code. (Remote areas will take longer.) Deliveries are made Monday through Friday - No Weekend Deliveries. Customers must provide a street address and correct zip code (UPS cannot deliver to P.O. boxes). A day phone number is also required. 

International Shipping / APO / FPO
(Shipping outside the continental USA)
Additional shipping charges will apply to international/APO/FPO orders. Orders outside the continental USA will be automatically upgraded to a Flat-Rate Priority Mail. Your invoice will be adjusted to include these additional fees. Please contact P.R.A.Y. at jenniferh@praypub.org for shipping rates.
