**Shipping Carrier Update**

Please note that our shipping carriers are experiencing delays due to the holiday season. These delays may impact ground and expedited shipping. Due to these delays, your package may move but not scan at every location in transit to you. Rest assured, if you have received tracking information, your package has left our shop.

For pre-orders, please reference the estimated shipping date on the product page as to when your item will ship.
