Ordering

May 19 update

The Simblissity online shop will be closed from May 19 until early July while I'm out on the trail. Cart buttons for available items will return to the website as soon as I do, and ordering will resume at that time. The LevaGaiter will once again be available then, as well.

We've been running a stock alert feature on the LevaGaiter since April 20, and are happy to report than everyone who contacted us with a need-by date of May, June, or early July has been accommodated. And we'll be ready to go public with the LevaGaiter again when I reopen the shop, at which time anyone else on the stock alert list will be notified. If you haven't already done so, you can sign up for the LevaGaiter stock alert and we'll notify you by email when this item becomes available. Our old school approach is simply to contact us by email at info(at)simblissity.net, and put "Levagaiter" in your subject. Again, we anticipate this product will be available in early July and throughout the rest of the summer and beyond -- both sizes and colors.

Meanwhile, we're excited to introduce a new product. The next generation in ultralight, waterproof, protective gear storage, our Device Care Cushion Pouch is ideal for electronic devices and other essentials. A definitive leap beyond our previous offering, the BubblePakit, the Cushion Pouch is available in two sizes to fit a wide range of items including Kindles and iPads. It's a really nice, simple yet effective way to protect your more fragile cargo without running up your packweight or breaking the bank on product-specific cases. Available again in July. Check it out here.

Formerly manufactured by Simblissity, the perennially in-demand Ultralight Mosquito Headnet is now available for purchase through the website of the product's inventor, Peter Vacco. Peter has put a lot of time and energy into developing and now retailing the best headnet on the market, bar none.

Shipping

Simblissity is proud to offer a low-cost USPS First Class shipping option with every order. Or upgrade to Priority Mail ($7 total shipping price)

We receive online credit and debit card payments instantaneously and will send a confirmation e-mail when we begin processing such orders. PayPal eCheck orders will begin processing upon notification of eCheck clearance (typically 3 or 4 business days).

Many of our products are made to order. Current shipping times (the time it takes for your order to enter the mail stream after we receive payment) are posted at the top of this page. To estimate when your order will arrive, simply add the stated shipping time to the transit times listed in the yellow box below.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS PLEASE NOTE:
Currently we are only accepting orders that will ship to addresses within the 50 United States and Canada. With apologies, international orders without a US or Canadian ship-to address will be refunded.

"GENERAL DELIVERY" CUSTOMERS PLEASE NOTE: If you are having us ship your order to a "general delivery" post office address (or other "trail town" facility) and need your order to arrive within 2 weeks of the date your order is placed, we strongly advise that you choose Priority Mail shipping during checkout. Not only is Priority Mail likely to arrive sooner than First Class, but it is also the only way to have your order forwarded to another location at no additional cost in the event that the recipient is unable to receive it at the original destination. (Free Priority Mail forwarding is available only from official US Postal Service facilities.)

First Class Mail standard shipping

All domestic orders include a low-cost shipping option via USPS First Class mail. First Class keeps our shipping costs down, and we are happy to pass along the savings to our customers. Transit times (after order processing - see below*) are typically 3 to 5 business days to addresses within the continental United States.

Priority Mail shipping

Need your order sooner? You can upgrade to USPS Priority Mail shipping during checkout for $7. Priority Mail is the gold standard among shipping services for fast, affordable delivery. Transit times (after order processing - see below*) are typically 2 to 3 business days to addresses within the continental United States.

International Shipping

Simblissity does not ship internationally except to Canada. During checkout, Canadian customers may choose standard international shipping or expedited Priority Mail International service. Please note that delivery times to Canada are not guaranteed, are not trackable, and that shipments may be subject to customs inspection and import duty.
