Frequently Asked Questions
Our artisan partners work under conditions that we can hardly imagine. Power outages, lack of raw materials, unreliable transportation, floods, cyclones, and droughts can all cause unexpected delays in the delivery of their handcrafts to us. In addition, the handcrafted nature of our products and fair trade terms means a longer turn-around time for reorders. This means that products you order from SERRV may sometimes be out of stock. View our backorder policy.
You can view estimated delivery times on individual product pages. Products over $20 may also be backorderable—you'll see this information when you look at all the products in a category.
On the individual product page of an out-of-stock item, you can click Notify me when this item is in stock to receive an email when it's available for purchase.
