Shipping dates for Christmas gifts....
We suggest that this be left to our discretion; and we promise to ship in ample time to assure pre-Christmas delivery - provided, of course, that you get your order to us by December 10th. (We cannot guarantee pre-Christmas delivery after December 10th, but we will try our level best.) Our last pre-Christmas trucks leave about December 19th. We do not ship between about December 20th and January 5th due to delays inherent with the holidays.

If your order is received too late to be included in one of our "last minute" trucks, your recipients will be notified that their Christmas gift from you will be late - and we'll ship the first week in January.
