Shipping Policy

GameDiva Holiday Shipping Policy

To receive your purchased items before Christmas, we advise all continental US customers to place orders no later than 5:00pm EST on December 13th for standard shipping. If you choose expedited shipping, your order should be placed before 5:00pm EST December 17th. If you order after December 17th, but before 5:00pm EST December 21st, we will try our best to ensure your order items arrived before Christmas if you choose expedited shipping, but we cannot guarantee you will receive it on time. Our experience indicates that you usually can, but there are just way too many factors that can affect the outcome, therefore we don't want to make a promise that we cannot fulfill.

NOTE: If your payment cannot be cleared by Amazon.com on time, and you place your order near the cut-off period, there is a chance your order may not arrive on time.

We can no longer guarantee standard shipping to location other than continental US Street before Christmas.

GameDiva Shipping Rates

(**We've noticed that many buyers confuse "Expedited Shipping" with express shipping. Amazon's definition of "Expedited Shipping" is NOT express shipping. In order to ease the confusion, GameDiva recently started to explore shipping thru true Express service. This results in higher shipping rate for our "Expedited Shipping.")
Listed below are shipping details for GameDiva, including the geographies shipped to, the service levels offered, and the prices charged.

ETA is for the time it takes for the shipping carrier to deliver a package only. Most of our items have an addition 1 to 2 days processing time.
