PT should be received on the second business day. (Business days are defined as Monday through Friday, except holidays.)


This is a new policy from American Express that must be adhered to both by ClipperDirect.com and American Express customers. It is done to protect you from fraudulent use of your credit card account. It is in your best interest to call American Express and notify them of your additional addresses so that your order can be authorized and shipped to you as quickly as possible. If you do not call American Express to notify them that you are using a different shipping address for an order, your card may not be approved, which would cause the order to be placed on hold.


Delivery

Once your order has shipped, a tracking number link will be included on your shipping confirmation email as well as listed on the order information page on ClipperDirect.com. These dates vary due to carrier shipping practices, delivery location and the items you order.
