Thank you for shopping with Dear Mixed Me.
Dear Mixed Me books are produced using a print-on-demand fulfillment model. Your book is printed after your order is placed rather than being shipped from traditional inventory.
Lulu Direct confirms that orders placed through merchant websites are printed, packaged, and shipped after the order is submitted.
After your order is submitted, it is sent to our fulfillment partner for production.
Because each book is produced on demand, there is a production period before the order is shipped.
Lulu currently states that production generally takes approximately 3–5 business days, although production times are estimates and can vary based on factors including demand, product specifications, print-facility capacity, and order quantity.
Production and delivery dates are estimates and are not guaranteed.
The following shipping options and prices are currently offered through our store for applicable orders:
| Shipping Method | Estimated Delivery | Shipping Fee |
|---|---|---|
| 12–14 days | $13.00 | |
| Ground Home | 10–12 days | $21.00 |
| Priority Mail | 10–12 days | $22.00 |
| Expedited Shipping | 7–9 days | $29.00 |
| Express Shipping | 6–8 days | $45.00 |
Shipping availability, rates, and estimated delivery times may vary depending on destination, product, quantity, and fulfillment conditions.
