Freight and Delivery

Delivery time

Small and Large Limited Edition Prints: All prints are individually printed to order and each one is a registered, signed and numbered masterpiece. Every large Limited Edition Print has to be inspected and signed by Melissa personally so some delays can occur when working around Melissa’s photographic schedule. Prints are delivered 14 days from the date your order is placed.

What if my order is later than expected?

If your order hasn’t reached you within 15 business days, the best first step is to contact your local post office in case they are holding the package for you. You’d be surprised how often this is the case!

If you feel that your order is taking much longer than it should, and your local post office was not able to help, contact us and we’ll see what we can do. When contacting us, please let us know your order number and the full correct delivery address so we can help you as soon as possible.

Packaging

Every framed print is professionally packaged and fully insured from our door to yours. In the unlikely event that damage should occur in transit, we will have the print collected from you and replaced with a perfect one at no additional charge to you. Our goal is to resolve any problem quickly and to your complete satisfaction.

What about customs?

As customs rules in various countries can frequently change, this can cause delays, and at times, additional charges imposed by the receiving country. While we take all reasonable steps to comply with general world shipping standards, Melissa Histon Photography is not liable for any additional customs taxes or duties, or if any specific item was prohibited or confiscated by the receiving country.

It is recommended that you investigate the relevant local laws in your country.

Gifts

Can I send a gift to someone else?

Absolutely! The ‘billing’ address must be your own, however you can choose a different ‘delivery’ address.

Please note, because we email your payment confirmation and receipt it’s also a good idea to use your own email address.

How will my ordered Gifts be packaged?

Photographic prints arrive mounted in on white board and boxed flat.

We are currently unable to personalise any orders that are purchased as gifts with a message or gift wrapping.
