Shipping is free for all orders shipped to destinations within the United States and Puerto Rico. We ship by Priority, Priority Flat Rate or First Class mail depending on the size and weight of the order, based on US Postal Service regulations. We ship all domestic orders within three business days, and typically ship within 24 hours of receiving your order. We do not accommodate requests for expedited shipping, overnight shipping or other carriers such as FedEx.

Please note that it is not possible for us to guarantee delivery times. We are at the mercy of the US Postal Service, and the time that it takes them to deliver your shipment is unpredictable. We have seen a Priority Mail shipment take 10 days to travel from Colorado to California even though the USPS states that Priority Mail shipments "are delivered in an average of 2-3 days to any destination" (quoted from the USPS.com website).

We ship all large sheets of washi in mailing tubes. Because mailing tubes must be sorted by hand, the Postal Service typically takes longer to deliver these tubes than to deliver other pieces of mail. If you place an order for large sheets of washi and other items, you will receive a tube containing your washi and another package containing the remainder of your order. The tube typically arrives later than the other package.

If your shipping address is in an apartment complex, office building, university or college campus, etc. please provide as much additional information as you can, such as a company or business name, floor number, unit number, building name, room number, and/or suite. It is your responsibility to provide a complete and accurate shipping address. We ship to the address that you provide. If your shipment is lost and we determine that the address that you provided to us is incomplete or inaccurate, we will not replace your order or issue a refund. Please read your order confirmation email to verify your shipping address. Verifying the accuracy of your shipping address is your responsibility, not ours.

Sending Gifts

Origami paper makes a lovely gift! If you would like your order sent as a gift, write a message to be included with your gift in the Comments section when placing your order. Please also mention that this is a gift order in the same section. We will include your message in the gift package. We will mail your invoice with the price information separately to your billing address, rather than to the gift recipient.

Sorry, but at this time we do not offer gift wrapping or gift certificates.

Returns

We will accept returns of unopened, undamaged packages of paper. (Large sheets of washi, which are not pre-packaged, must be returned in the same condition in which they were received.) Returns of items totaling $20 or more are subject to a 15% restocking fee. Items must be postmarked for return within 30 days of the date that you placed the order. Please package items securely before sending them back to us. We will not issue refunds for items damaged during shipment back to us, and we will not pay for the cost of shipping the items to us.

If you receive a damaged item from us, please contact us and we will send you a replacement. You must return the damaged item(s) to us. Items must be postmarked for return within 30 days of the date that you placed the order. We do not pay for the cost of shipping the item(s) back to us.
