A complimentary set of 2024–2033 stamps is included with every 5 Year Diary.

We do our own quality control after we've received the inventory, here are some typical examples of what we deem as "imperfect."

- Grid lines not lining up, especially open spreads.

- Blemishes on the cover such as glue, stain, and glitter.

- Minor scratches on the gilded edge.

- Minor print stains/blemishes on pages.

- Separation of the cover and pages (can be seen at the spine). This is a cosmetic issue and does not affect the durability of the planner.

It depends on where you are. Orders processed here will take 5-7 business days to arrive. Overseas deliveries can take anywhere from 7-16 days. Delivery details will be provided in your confirmation email.

Please note that international shipping can take anywhere from 2-4 weeks depending on various factors. However, delivery times may fluctuate during busy seasons or if there is an increased volume of orders within the postal network.
We encourage you to reach out to us for expedited international shipping options. We'll be happy to provide an estimate and arrange an alternate shipping method. 

Our standard processing time for all orders is within 5 business days, regardless of the chosen shipping option. Please be aware that this processing duration may be affected during collection launches, sale periods, or seasonal rushes (i.e. Christmas). It's important to note that the processing time refers to the time required to prepare your order for shipment, which is distinct from the shipping time itself. The expedited shipping option refers specifically to the shipping service offered by the postal carrier and does not impact the processing time of your order.

Sometimes packages are caught up at regional processing and distribution centers and this will delay any updates with the USPS tracking information. 

For shipments outside the U.S., packages are first sent to a USPS GlobalPost domestic distribution center, where they undergo sorting, processing, and bundling before being registered for international transit. During this stage, it’s normal for tracking updates to be temporarily delayed. Once the packages make their way through the postal network, the tracking information should begin to update!

Customers are solely responsible for all taxes, customs duties, and associated fees linked to imported goods. While we endeavor to assist in cases where customs claim taxes remain unpaid, customers should note potential processing or administrative fees imposed by customs authorities. Customers should stay informed about their country's customs policies to avoid any unforeseen charges.

For quality assurance, all Five Year Diary are sealed before shipping. Once the seal is broken, the planner is no longer eligible for return, as we are unable to resell opened items.
