Shipping Policy

First-order free shipping

First-time customers with no previous orders receive free Standard Shipping on their first order with a cart subtotal of $175 USD or more, for shipping within the United States, including Alaska and Hawaii. Returning customers and cart subtotals below $175 do not qualify for this first-order offer.

If a cart contains any oversized item, the entire order is excluded from free shipping, including any standard items in the same cart. No part of an oversized mixed cart receives free shipping, regardless of the cart subtotal.

Local delivery remains paid. This offer applies only to Standard Shipping and cannot be combined with other discounts.

See first-order shipping eligibility and mixed-cart examples.

We process and ship orders within two business days. Orders placed on weekends or U.S. holidays are processed the next business day.

For U.S. Postal Service and all ground shipping methods, please allow up to ten business days for transit. Some items may require a signature upon delivery.

Once your order has shipped, you will receive tracking information by email. Please check tracking details regularly to ensure timely receipt of your package.

We are not responsible for packages that are lost, stolen, or delayed after the carrier confirms delivery to the address provided. If you believe your package is missing, please contact the shipping carrier directly. We will assist when possible but cannot guarantee replacement or refund once a package is marked as delivered.

For any shipping-related questions, email shop@articlesincommon.com. We aim to respond the same business day.

Shopify Legal Policy Updates

Terms of Service: Seller Services and WildUP

Full-Service Consignment

Articles In Common reviews gear for condition, resale suitability and eligibility before acceptance. A signed consignment agreement and itemized gear-drop schedule establish the accepted items, seller payout, pricing and markdown permissions, handling of unsold merchandise, and responsibility for loss or damage.

Existing signed consignment agreements remain governed by their original terms.

Self-Service Selling

Where available, Self-Service sellers manage their own listings and shipping under the applicable marketplace seller terms. Seller responsibilities, marketplace fees and buyer protections must be disclosed before participation.

WildUP Membership

WildUP is an annual full-service resale membership, currently $96 per year, billed once with no automatic renewal.

For new WildUP consignment agreements, members receive 65% of the eligible sale price when approved gear sells. AIC coordinates product photography, listings, sales and promotion. Membership does not guarantee acceptance of every submitted item.

AIC contacts members within two business days following a paid membership purchase to arrange their first gear review and drop.

Inbound gear shipping is a separate expense paid by the member at the quoted carrier cost before shipment.

Existing signed membership and consignment terms remain unchanged.

Liability and Ownership

Consigned equipment remains the seller's property until sold or otherwise transferred under the signed agreement. Transit and custody responsibilities, insurance, and compensation for loss or damage are governed by the applicable signed agreement and law.

AIC does not automatically guarantee replacement at the item's original retail price.


Shipping Policy: Inbound Consignment

Shipping, Handled.

AIC arranges shipping labels and QR codes for approved inbound gear. Sellers receive and approve the carrier quote before paying the actual shipping charge. AIC does not add a markup.

Labels are issued after payment. Shipping is not deducted from future resale earnings.

Oversized equipment, multiple packages and local pickup require individual quotes. Sellers may arrange their own tracked shipping with AIC approval.

Any subsequent carrier adjustment or return-shipping charge is handled according to the agreed shipping terms. AIC does not make undisclosed deductions from seller payouts.


Returns & Refunds: Memberships

WildUP is a service membership rather than a physical merchandise purchase. The merchandise-return window does not automatically apply to annual membership fees.

Membership cancellation and refunds are governed by the purchase-time disclosures, applicable membership agreement, and law.

Members whose proposed gear cannot be accepted, or who believe an agreed service has not been delivered, may contact shop@articlesincommon.com for review.

This provision does not limit applicable statutory consumer rights.
