1. ​Free Shipping Threshold:​​

   • Most affordable eyewear retailers (including similar direct-to-consumer brands) offer ​free standard shipping​ when orders meet a minimum value (e.g., orders over $50or$100).
   • Example: “​Free Standard Shipping​ on all orders over $[Amount].”(Commonthresholdrange:$50 – $100)

2. ​Standard Shipping (Below Threshold or Baseline):​​

   • If your order is below the free shipping threshold, expect a ​flat fee​ for standard ground shipping. This is usually quite competitive.
   • Typical Cost Range: ​​$4.95-$9.95​ within the brand’s main market (e.g., US, Canada, UK, EU). International charges will be higher.

3. ​Expedited/Rush Shipping Options:​​

   • Faster options (like 2-Day or Overnight) are usually available for an ​additional fee. This fee depends heavily on the speed and your location.
   • Typical Cost Range: ​​$12.95-$29.95+​​ (Domestic). Can be significantly higher internationally.

4. ​International Shipping:​​

   • Charges vary greatly based on destination, package weight/size, and service level.
   • Expect higher fees than domestic shipping. Look for an international shipping calculator on their checkout page or shipping policy.

5. ​Special Cases:​​

   • ​Prescription Glasses:​​ Since these often require production time (lab work), standard shipping usually covers the delivery after they’re made. Rush fees might accelerate the production or the shipping.
   • ​Contact Lenses (Scout by Cheap Glasses):​​ Shipping charges follow the same structure but might have lower weight thresholds for free shipping.

• ​Visa​ (Most widely accepted globally)
• ​Mastercard​ (Most widely accepted globally)
• ​American Express (Amex)​​ (Commonly accepted, sometimes with slight processing differences)
• ​Discover​ (Primarily US-based, less common internationally)
