During the checkout process, you will be asked to choose your shipping method and will be provided with the cost and approximate shipping time. The estimate times provided by USPS are estimates only and are not guaranteed except for USPS Express Mail. We ship orders Monday through Friday and will usually ship the same day if your order is received by 10:00 A.M. MST. In addition, we have a 24-48 hour grace period for processing and packaging orders. We will only take more than one day in extreme, rare circumstances.

Shipping Directly from the Manufacturer
Jupiter band instruments ship directly from the manufacturer to reduce the total shipping time. Jupiter ships only via FedEx shipping service; however, you will only be given the option to ship UPS during checkout. Please select UPS as the shipping option but understand that the item will arrive from FedEx. All Jupiter instruments will ship separately from any books, accessories or other items within the same order. Other items in the order will be shipped based on the fastest delivery estimate from either USPS or UPS. If you are a local Arizona customer and would like to do an in-store pickup, please select in-store pickup when you checkout. We will call you when it arrives.
