Estimated Delivery Time

Want to know when you can expect delivery of your items? Remember, estimated delivery time = order processing time + shipping time

The availability of each item is clearly labeled throughout the Booksamillion.com site. Many items are labeled "In Stock," which means that your order will generally be processed and ready to ship within 24 hours after being placed. Larger orders may require additional processing time.

The number of days required for delivery also depends on the shipping method you select. For example, if you ordered an "In Stock" book and selected Express Shipping, your total delivery time would be 4-6 business days (1 to 2 business day(s) to process, plus 3 to 4 business days of shipping time).

Sometimes an item's stock status may change during order processing. We will notify you of any changes in stock availability by email. We do everything within our ability to work with publishers and vendors to ensure your title is available to ship as stated on Booksamillion.com.

Titles selected from our New & Used Marketplace usually ship in 1 to 2 days. This is because our partners ship directly to you. We work closely with our New & Used Marketplace partners to get your order to you as soon as possible. Please note, delivery should be expected between 4 and 14 days.
