Orders to the U.S.
Individuals
Online ordering. We encourage you to use our online shopping cart. You may access the shopping cart at any time through the navigation menu; you may add any book to the cart from that book’s description page. Orders will be filled by Ingram Publisher Services, our domestic distributor. To inquire about domestic orders placed through the Penn Press website, contact IPS Order Support by email at ordersupport@ingramcontent.com or call (844) 841-0258.
Please do not submit orders via email or fax. To safeguard your credit card information, book orders must be placed online through our secure shopping cart.
All Penn Press books are shipped via UPS. Shipping charges are additional to prices quoted in catalog information, as are sales taxes, and will be calculated in the shopping cart. Domestic orders will arrive in 5-10 days.
Returns. Should you choose to return an item, you will be eligible for a full refund of the purchase price and applied taxes, but you will be responsible for the cost of return shipping. These conditions apply: books must be undamaged and in salable, like-new condition. If the books you receive are not as ordered, or if your shipment arrives damaged, you will be eligible for a full refund of the purchase price, applied taxes, and original shipping cost if you return the items within 30 days of their receipt. You will nonetheless be responsible for the cost of return shipping. Ship returns, postpaid, to this address:
Returns Center
191 Edwards Drive
Jackson, TN 38301
Be sure to include the original packing slip.
Once your returned items are received, inspected, and approved, refunds will be processed to the credit card used in the original purchase. Please note that it may take your credit card issuer 4-6 weeks to refund your account.
Booksellers
University of Pennsylvania Press participates in Ingram’s consolidated delivery and free-freight policy. To qualify for free freight, orders must total at least 10 units, or $350 in retail value, of any combination of IPS and wholesale stock. A fuel surcharge of $2.00 will apply. Books will ship from the store’s primary and secondary Ingram distribution centers (Oregon, Indiana, Pennsylvania, or Tennessee). Orders will combine with Ingram wholesale and those for other publishers distributed by Ingram/IPS but will be invoiced separately.

Orders Within the Americas (Outside the U.S.)
Orders shipping to countries in the Americas (North America, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean) will be filled by Ingram Publisher Services, our U.S. distributor, and should be placed through the Penn Press website.

Customers shipping to Canada may select Canada Post (“Post Track”) shipping; all other international orders will ship with DHL.
Please note that, for all international orders filled by IPS, the customer is the importer of record and will be responsible to pay the carrier (when contacted) for any applicable taxes and duties before delivery is made. Failure to pay such charges may prevent delivery of the shipment. Credit will not be issued for shipments that are not delivered due to non-payment of taxes and duties.
See the Orders to the U.S. section for more information about ordering with IPS.
