Shipping & Handling

Shipping is free to all destinations in the continental United States. AK, HI, Puerto Rico and international orders are shipped at the rates below.

We ship all packages via UPS. All orders shipped to continental U.S. addresses are shipped for a flat rate of $5. Expedited and international orders will be processed at standard carrier rates. Please allow approximately 1-2 business days for your order to process.  Your merchandise will arrive to you in 4-10 business days, depending on location.

All orders over $200 require a signature on delivery as well as other orders at the UPS driver's discretion if the driver feels a delivery location is unsafe.

Please note that there will be extra delivery fees for orders that must be reshipped, intercepted, or have address updates if the order has already been shipped to its original shipping destination. Customers will be notified of the cost before they are charged.

Orders will be processed on the following business day.  No Saturday deliveries.

Orders that are to be shipped to destinations outside of the United States will not reflect shipping charges during the checkout process. For your convenience, we will calculate the shipping charges and send you a shipping quote before processing your order. Once we receive your approval for the shipping amount, we will then charge your card and ship your order.

Orders shipped internationally are passed to the local postal carrier in the country of destination. Customers are subject to local duties and taxes, which are assessed once the package arrives in your country. We cannot estimate any of these additional charges.

Please note that packages can often be delayed while clearing customs. Please contact your local customs office for more information

Processing
Orders processed after 3pm Monday through Friday will be issued a UPS tracking number. This number may not be activated by UPS until the following business day. If you track your package and receive no information, please wait one day before tracking again.

Order / Credit Card Issues

We hold product of declined orders for 24 hours. If there is a problem with your order we will email you for further information or verification. If you do not respond within 24 hours of that email, we will return the product to our inventory.

Pre-Authorization
As a measure of credit protection, Lori's pre-authorizes its orders to verify funds and card owner identity. If you are using a debit card to place your order, the card processor may reserve those funds prior to our ringing of the sale. When we ring your order at time of shipment, that hold is released. Due to the two to four business days banks require to reverse holds, this may appear as a double-billing. You are only charged once for your order.

Our Privacy Statement

We neither sell nor share your information with outside companies or third parties.

When you purchase from our online store, we collect your name, billing and shipping addresses, phone number, email address, and credit card information. You provide this information so we can process and ship your order. We respect your privacy by not selling or sharing this information.

We encourage you to sign-up for our emailing list. These letters provide you with advanced notice of store sales, new merchandise, and other store-related events. But, of course, you have the freedom to add or remove your name from our list at any time.


Online Security

Your credit card is completely safe.

Protecting your information is our highest priority. We have developed several safeguards to keep your information completely confidential. To proceed to checkout, you must enter your e-mail address and create a password. The checkout process itself employs Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)* technology to insure your safety.

*Secure Sockets Layer encrypts your order information and sends it to a secure server, making it impossible for that information to be decoded by a party outside of the store you shop with.

Furthermore, only our store will have your information; other members of the Modern Retail community will not have access to your information unless you decide to shop with them.

To check the security of your connection during checkout, look for the unbroken key or closed lock at the bottom of your browser window. This indicates SSL is active.
