International Shipping

In order to maintain low prices, fast order processing, and quick delivery, we currently only ship to addresses in the US and Canada.

We are currently exploring options to allow us to ship to more countries. In the meantime, international customers who can supply a U.S. address of a friend or relative to whom we can ship may order by phone (888–WTSBOOK or 215–886–0999). International customers may also want to consider using a parcel forwarding service. These services provide a U.S. address to ship to, and then forward the package to an international address for a fee. You can see several parcel forwarding services here.

The Westminster Bookstore is not responsible for packages once they arrive at the shipping address given on the order.
