Orders are processed in 1-4 business days, most within 24 hours.   Please keep in mind shipping is only available from Monday to Friday.  Orders placed over the weekend or after 12pm Friday will process on Monday morning.   The type of shipping selected and the delivery address determines shipping time.  Most order are shipped from our local warehouse or drop shipped direct (usually from the East coast).  Certain manufacturers require an extra day or two to process the order before shipping. 

If your order is time sensitive please state the actual date you need the items in  the comments section at checkout.  The comments section can be found on the review page (last page) on the online checkout form.  Please refrain from giving a false event date.  This could hold the order up if shipping determines it will not arrive in time and needs to contact you for confirmation.

There are special order items that require more time than the standard 1-4 business days for processing.  This is due to the items either being custom made per order or the item requires a few more days to arrive.  This information can be found under each item in the “more info” section.  For most items there is a link to the right in the brief item description or you can scroll down the page below the item.

A special note air shipments.  Air shipments will have a faster transit time but do not make the order process faster.  They will ship as requested but if a manufacturer requires one day to process and ship then the order would ship the following day. 

For example, if an order is placed on Tuesday at 11am with 2nd day air shipping requested and the item ships direct the following day; the package would arrive on Friday.  Now if that same order were placed on Wednesday the package would arrive on Monday of the following week.  Please understand this example is not to insult your intelligence but more to help show the need for processing time.  If a manufacturer needs 1 day to process and ship, Buy4lesstuxedo cannot change their policy (if it were up to us everything would arrive in an instant).
