Please be sure to include the correct amount including shipping. We accept Money Orders or cashier’s checks made out to Shades of Color, LLC. You are encouraged to confirm your request was received. Unfortunately Shades of Color is not held responsible for payments that do not arrive.

We currently do not currently ship via this website to any other locations other than the USA and Canada. If you would like to ship internationally please contact us to request a shipping rate quote. We will need to know the items you are interested (to get the weight) and your address.

We ship most small orders via US Postal Service, and large orders via FedEx or UPS (UPS does not ship to P.O. Boxes). If you are a wholesale client you may request to ship via your own account, however, this service may not be available.

Order Confirmation:
If your order was processed successfully, you will receive an order number via e-mail. If you do not receive a confirmation your order did not go through.

Shades of Color is not responsible for typographical errors. We reserve the right to cancel any order you have placed if there was a typographical error on our website concerning the pricing or availability of any item you ordered when you placed the order.  We reserve the right to change the terms and conditions of sales online at any time. Shades of Color may also make changes to any products offered online based on inventory.

When will I receive my items?
Please allow up to two business days to process your order in addition to the shipping method you select.  We are unfortunately not open on the weekends. We will always do our best to get your items to you as fast as possible. The average turnaround time is up to 10 business days; locations closer to California will require less time. If you need your items by a specific date we suggest selecting an expedited shipping method or ordering via phone and alerting your sales agent of your requested deadline.

Returned or Unclaimed Shipments:
Unfortunately we are unable to provide guidance to the mail carrier on where to leave your package. Shades of Color is not responsible for returned or unclaimed shipments. Some state institutions/penitentiaries do not accept certain calendars as they are deemed contraband. In this event, Shades of Color is not liable. Customers that have shipments returned to our office will be notified and have 14 days to redirect their shipment, possibly for an additional shipping cost.
