About Our Shipping Estimates

Most online stores charge a generic shipping fee that costs you more. Not Rings & Things! We charge the actual cost of shipments, which means savings for you. The downside of this is that not all variables can be calculated by our online store, so the cost you see when you submit your order is an estimate.

All of our continental U.S. estimates are based on shipping to the red area on this map:

Rings & Things' estimates are based on shipping to the red area. Final shipping will be the actual cost to your area, not an expensive generic fee!

Why? Because the database for our shopping cart would have to be bigger than our entire online store to accurately calculate every zip code! So, if you live to the east of the red area, expect your actual shipping costs to be higher than the estimate. If you live to the west of the red area, your shipping costs might be cheaper than the estimate. We say "might" because our estimates do not include fees that UPS and FedEx sometimes add. These include:

  • Residential address (not a business):
        Ground = $1.85
        Air= $2.20
  • Remote address (off the beaten path):
        Commercial address = $1.40
        Residential address = $2.20

Feel free to use shipping-company calculators for independent estimates of actual shipping costs. To get the best freight estimate, add 1 lb (for packing materials and paperwork) to the "Current order weight" listed on your order's checkout page. All of our orders ship from Spokane, WA, 99202.
