UPDATE 9/18/12 - Many smaller same day orders are going out today.

UPDATE 9/17/12 - Warehouse staff put in a full weekend of work and we are proud to notify you that we are nearly caught up. We should be back on track by mid week.

We have moved the warehouse and are back to shipping. Due to the downtime, we are backlogged with orders, a good problem to have. Warehouse staff is working feverishly to complete orders as quickly as possible. Thanks for your patience, YOUR ORDER IS ON THE WAY! Contact our customer service department to check the status.

We are Moving to a Shiny NEW Space

September 6, 2012

Our pick and pack warehouse is moving to a shiny NEW space this week. The move is an effort to cut costs and consolidate print on demand department with pick and pack. We also saw this move as a perfect opportunity to reorganize the warehouse and make the operation more efficient. All prints will be getting a new shelf in a more engineered slot for faster picking. Best sellers will be moved to the front and collections shelved together, artists will be in order whenever possible. Old prints are closed out to make way for new and exciting works.

This move does not come without a price though, expect delays as we are not shipping 9/6-9/7 and the following week will be limited. Please contact the customer service department for more info and to check on your orders. Lets hope all goes smoothly, see you on the other side.

Shipping has resumed!

August 31, 2011

Power is back on and we are shipping today! All employees came to work with boots on, mop buckets in hand ready to pitch in and get the place cleaned up. I am amazed at the progress. Some rooms are nearly back to normal and in some cases cleaner than before. Orders will still be backed up for a few days but we are doing our best to catch up.
