Featured Promotion - SAVE THE USPS

Why it's important:

Small businesses like ours rely on the postal service for safe, efficient, and cost-effective delivery of goods
Many people rely on the postal service for timely delivery of prescription drugs
Many people have social security checks, paychecks, and other important financial transactions sent through the postal service
In some rural areas, the postal service is the ONLY delivery method available
An efficiently-run postal office is an important service for US citizens, including for safe and timely delivery of mail-in ballots during a global pandemic

What you can do:

Write, call, email, and otherwise contact your Senators and Representative in Congress and let them know that the USPS is important to you
Understand the perspective of the front-line, essential workers at the USPS -- see what the American Postal Workers Union has to say, and use their resources
Use the USPS! Buy a book! Send a letter! Postables will send a real-life, customizeable postcard for $1 to the government official of your choice

A Notice to Our Canadian Customers --

We're pleased to announce that we are now providing prepaid Canadian Duties and Taxes on First Class Mail International (FCMI) packages. All taxes are covered, including duties and value added taxes (VAT). FCMI shipping is only available on orders weighing 3.85 lbs. or less (4 lbs. including packaging).
Orders over 3.85 lbs. must be sent Priority International and this offer does not apply.

COVID-19 Update from Parlew Distribution: Book stock from all publishers we work with is held in a controlled environment, accessible only to a limited number of people. We are fulfilling all orders as usual, with the exception that there will be fewer trips made to the post office each week. This may cause a minor delay in our usually prompt service (most orders have been mailed within 1-2 business days).
There have also been delays experienced in mailing times for the U.S. Postal Service, which are beyond our control.
Thank you for your business, and for your patience as we continue to provide high-quality service while also keeping our workers safe!
