Shipping Information

Free Shipping Program

We offer free ground shipping on orders over $250 on specific products that are shipping within the Continental US.

Here are the key points of our program:

Only merchandise orders shipping within the Continental U. S. are eligible for free shipping with a minimum purchase of $250. APO, FPO, Alaska, Hawaii and shipments outside of the U.S. are not eligible. We require shipment to the same address as the billing or PayPal confirmed address. If the item shipped to you free and you return it for credit or refund, we will subtract the actual cost of outbound shipping from your refund. 2nd Day Air, Next Day Air and other express shipments are not eligible. Photofinishing & certain oversized items, such as printers, monitors, and scanners are excluded.

*All orders go through a verification process and may hold orders for up to 24 hours.*

Free Local Delivery

We do offer free delivery service within approximately 10 miles of the store within Austin city limits. There is a $250 minimum order for free delivery, or a $15 delivery charge is applied to your order. If you have questions of whether or not you're within the delivery area, please call us. Deliveries are made in the morning so your delivery will be made the next business day after the order is placed and require a signature. Deliveries are not made on Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays.

If you are not present at the delivery address during the delivery window, we will move the order to in store pick up. Additional shipping charges will apply if you want it to be shipped or attempted for delivery again.

In-Store Pick Up

Precision Camera & Video requires the card holder or confirmed person on a PayPal payment to be present during in-store pick up. If the card holder is not present, we can ship to the billing address of the card holder or confirmed PayPal address as an alternative. We require the card used online to be present during pick up along with a copy of the cardholder's ID.

General Shipping Information

Most products will ship the day of purchase if purchased prior to 1 p.m. CST on a business day. Orders for in-store pick up placed Monday-Friday (9 a.m.-6 p.m.) are generally ready for pick up within an hour, but we will email you as soon as your order is ready. In-store pick up orders require card holder to be present during pick up. Bring your ID and card used to place the order online.

UPS 2nd Day Air & UPS Next Day Air are based on business days, and shipments will not be delivered on weekends.

Exceptions:

  • Some paper and ink products are drop-shipped and may ship the next day.
  • Pre-order items will ship as soon as received with priority given to those who have put a deposit down, or asked to be on the waitlist, in that order.
  • Orders that require additional credit screening may take longer as shipment can be made only after full approval.
  • Products purchased with e-checks or with a hold on the Paypal purchase ship as soon as payment clears.

Most orders are shipped via UPS. Therefore we cannot always ship to P.O. Boxes or APO, FPO addresses. Smaller items may be shipped via USPS. These shipments can ship to P.O. Boxes and APO, FPO addresses though shipping costs are higher for APO and FPO shipments.
