Base level domestic shipping does NOT include a tracking option. Most orders arrive in 5-6 business days or less. However, that can be very erratic depending on seasonal and weather factors affecting the postal service. Occasionally it may take up to 2 weeks to receive your order.
Several upgraded shipping options are available for select listings if you need faster delivery and/or tracking information. However, please understand that once we ship your order it is out of our hands and we can't control whether the USPS actually delivers it in a timely manner. Please consult their website for their estimated delivery times to your area. We ship from zip code 64119.
International orders typically take 8-14 business days to arrive. Again, it's out of our hands once it ships and it *COULD* take 4-6 weeks depending on destination, customs delays and other factors.
Any customs charges, duties, taxes or other charges related to importation of goods into your country are the responsibility of the buyer. We're not experts on International shipping laws, and we also don't collect any such monies on behalf of foreign countries) so it's up to you to know and understand any tariffs, taxes or other import charges you may face once the merchandise arrives.

***APPLICATION OF IRON-ON PATCHES***
Most customers have success applying iron-on patches to their garments, however due to the age of some vintage patches and differences between manufacturers some people prefer to sew the patches on for a more secure application. Just keep in mind for vintage items that the glue is older and the fabric more susceptible to damage when handling.
But here is a general guide for applying iron-on patches.
Step 1: Set your hand iron at the hottest temperature setting. DO NOT USE STEAM DURING APPLICATION!
Step 2: Place your applique or embroidered patch in the desired position and place a pressing cloth (such as a handkerchief, sheet or pillowcase fabric) over top.
Step 3: Press the iron straight down for 35-45 seconds with as much constant pressure as possible. NO BACK AND FORTH.
Step 4: Turn the garment inside-out and repeat steps 2 & 3.
Step 5: Allow the applique or embroidered patch to cool down.
