Shipping: Your card game will be shipped directly from Learning Plunge and should be sent out within a few days.  If you purchased other items from The History List, they will be shipped separately, but you will only be charged one shipping fee. 

Shipping

For shipments to addresses within the U.S. (scroll down for International shipping) 

Flat-rate shipping: Regardless of the number of items you order, the shipping price for shirts, caps, unframed prints and posters, bracelets, lapel pins, pendants, and button packs is $5.95.

For hooded and crewneck sweatshirts, mugs, and blankets, the shipping cost is $8.95. 

Our flat rate shipping means you can add two or more t-shirts, sweatshirts, or caps for no additional shipping charge.

Note that some large or heavy items, including larger framed prints, may have a different shipping charge or a shipping surcharge. When they do, it will be noted on the product page.

 

Timing

We try to ship orders within three business days of receiving them. This applies to in-stock items. Framed items or items requiring personalization may take up to two weeks longer. If there is an extended delay, it will be noted on the product page.

We close for a week over Independence Day and Christmas. A notice will appear at the top of every page of the site in advance of this closure.

We ship most orders via USPS, so if the post office is closed, we won't be shipping orders that day.

If you need to receive your order by a certain date, such as to give as a gift or have for a trip, we recommend ordering at least two weeks in advance, especially if you are using USPS shipping. 

If you're looking for reliable, on-time deliveries, we strongly suggest upgrading to "UPS 3 Business Day Select Shipping."

Additional notes:

  • When fulfillment takes longer, such as around the Christmas holidays, we'll put up an announcement in the site and will list recommended shipping deadlines below.
  • If an item is out of stock, we will contact you.
  • If one of your items is an advance order, that will be noted on the product page along with an estimate of when it will ship. If that estimated date changes, the product page will be updated.

        Regardless of the number of items you order, the shipping price is still fixed at $5.95. Our flat rate shipping means you can add another t-shirt, cap, or book for no additional shipping charge.

      • $8.95 for hooded and crewneck sweatshirts, mugs, and blankets.

    We strongly recommend using UPS, especially in November and December.

          Promises made promises kept

          I had my doubts that the items I ordered from the history list would actually arrive in time for Christmas. But lo and behold they did arrive in time as they promised. The games I ordered were nice quality too thank you so much!

          T-shirts and posters

          I purchased several items. They range from shirts to posters. My daughter loves historical figures. As we lived by Mt Vernon, she recalls the presidents and what they did and ironically knows more about the first ladies than the presidents. Her favorite is Abraham Lincoln and his wife. The shir w/ his stove pipe hat is her favorite. She loves the poster of him that she received. The poster were excellent with great card stock - nice and thick and evenly printed. The shirts were perfect sizes and comfortable to wear. Looking forward to new designs.

          Perfect Gift for the History Buff

          My 9 year old son has been playing this game nonstop. We love that there are different ways to play. I need to study more because he crushes me every time! He is an expert on presidential trivia, but is just beginning to learn other history, so it is cool that this game has it all.

          History plunge

          Great game for the entire family. We play with our kids and grandchildren. One of my daughters is a high school history teacher—she was impressed.
