Shipments originate in New York City, and transit times vary depending on where packages are delivered. Please remember that if you place your order after 11 am EST on Friday, your order will only be processed or shipped the following week, as Le Lotus Bleu is closed for business over the weekend.

​
SHIPPING METHODS
UPS
Unless otherwise specified, all orders shipped within the Contiguous U.S. are shipped via UPS Ground or USPS. UPS does not ship to P.O. boxes, so a street address is required to send a package via this method. A UPS tracking number will be emailed to you upon the shipment of your order.

UPS Worldwide shipping is available for Canada orders; please note that it is the customer's responsibility to take care of any taxes, fees, or dues upon receipt.

SHIPPING LIABILITY
Le Lotus Bleu will ship based on the method you select from the available options. The estimated time of the arrival of your product should be considered as an estimate only, and Le Lotus Bleu will not be responsible for any damages due to delays in shipping. Shipping charges will be listed when you purchase the product from this webpage. You are responsible for all federal and provincial shipping-related taxes and agree to comply with all export laws of the United States that apply to the products purchased or received under this Agreement. Le Lotus Bleu is not responsible for undeliverable packages due to wrong addresses, missing information, or needing someone present to accept packages. If there is a suite number, apartment number, or building number, please include that on your order.
UPS has permission to leave packages at the recipient's address if no one is there to sign for them; however, UPS drivers may also leave a UPS notice for a 2nd or 3rd delivery attempt at their discretion. Le Lotus Bleu is not responsible for packages stolen or damaged after they are delivered to the address specified by the customer. We recommend that someone be home to accept the package or that it be shipped to a workplace or office address when possible.
If your order is undeliverable and returned to us, you will be issued a refund for your order minus the shipping cost. A new order is required to send the same items again. You may also need to provide an alternate shipping address, as UPS may flag the undeliverable address on all future deliveries.
Le Lotus Bleu is not responsible for delays caused by weather, mechanical failure, or other acts beyond our control.
