Shipping Policy
Sandy Coburn Photography & Communications · Last updated: May 2026
1. Complimentary Delivery
Delivery is complimentary on all orders. No shipping charges are added at checkout. The price you see is the price you pay.
Every print is professionally packaged and shipped with full insurance by Sandy Coburn Photography's fine art production partner, using specialist carriers selected for their handling standards and experience with large-format fine art.
2. Production and Dispatch Timeline
All prints are made to order. There are no ready-made stock items. The timeline from order to dispatch is as follows:
This timeline reflects the production of a bespoke, museum-quality fine art print — not standard retail fulfilment. No expedited production or rush service is available.
A personalised email confirming your edition number and estimated dispatch window is sent once your order has been placed into production. You will receive a separate notification with tracking information as soon as your print has been dispatched.
3. Carriers and Delivery
Prints are shipped via specialist fine art carriers selected for destination, print size, and handling requirements. Carriers used include DHL, DPD, UPS, and FedEx/TNT depending on your location.
All shipments are fully insured for the value of the print. Tracking information will be provided as soon as your order is dispatched. Sandy Coburn Photography is not able to specify a particular carrier in advance, as carrier selection is made at dispatch based on destination and the physical requirements of your print.
Express or expedited shipping is not available.
4. International Orders and Customs
Sandy Coburn Photography ships worldwide. All orders outside the European Union are subject to the customs regulations of the destination country.
Customs duties, import taxes, and any associated fees are the sole responsibility of the collector. These charges are determined by your country's customs authority and are entirely outside Sandy Coburn Photography's control. They are not included in the print price and cannot be estimated in advance.
Please be aware of the following before placing an international order:
- You are responsible for ensuring your order can be legally imported into your country and for paying any applicable duties or taxes upon arrival.
- If an order is held by customs, it is your responsibility to contact the relevant customs authority and arrange release. Sandy Coburn Photography will provide any supporting documentation reasonably required to assist with customs clearance.
- If an order is abandoned, refused, or returned due to failure to pay customs duties or respond to a customs notice, Sandy Coburn Photography cannot issue a refund and is not liable for the loss of the print.
If you have questions about customs requirements in your country, we recommend contacting your local customs authority before placing an order.
5. Delivery Address
Please ensure your delivery address is correct and complete at the time of ordering. Sandy Coburn Photography is not responsible for orders that cannot be delivered due to an incorrect or incomplete address provided at checkout.
If you need to update your delivery address after placing an order, contact sandy@sandycoburnphotography.com immediately. Address changes may be possible within the 24-hour cancellation window but cannot be guaranteed once production has commenced.
For large-format prints requiring a two-person delivery, please ensure someone is available to receive the shipment at the specified address. If a delivery attempt is unsuccessful, redelivery arrangements are the responsibility of the collector and may incur additional charges from the carrier.
