With our proprietary map editor, you can choose any location in the world and turn it into a beautiful printed poster. Commemorate milestones and achievements by adding custom captions. Our prints make a perfect gift for any occasion! After your order is placed, we send your order details to our hand-picked printers. They print your product, and deliver it safely to your door in a timely manner.

This is most likely because the distributor of map data we use (OpenStreetMaps) does not have that information, so unfortunately we do not have it either.

If for some reason you do need a return, the following below is our return policy, also listed on our Terms of Service.

Return Policy 

If for some reason you are unsatisfied with the quality of your print, your product gets damaged in the mail / during manufacturing, or the product does not arrive within 15 business days (domestic) and 28 business days (intl) - we will see that you get a replacement product or possibly, a refund. Refunds are made on a case-by-case basis, but generally, products that have been kept for longer than 21 days may not be returned. Similarly, we are not responsible for orders that do not arrive on time for a specific occasion/holiday, products that are accidentally ordered/now unwanted, or spelling errors made by the end user. Of course, we want all our customers to be satisfied, and if you have a specific question/case that does not fall within this policy, please send us an e-mail at: [email protected]

Refund and Cancellation Our promise is that we thrive to satisfy our customers and we will make exceptions when necessary to ensure a greatly exceeded customer experience when buying our product.

1. Once the order was placed and we receive it, we will deliver within 15-30 business days. Generally we are well covered and since our product is manufactured in the United States. At times, we can expect quicker delivery due to our proximity to customers. What we can’t control is that the customer provides us with a correct delivery address during the ordering process. In such cases we won’t be able to guarantee a return if the error was due partly to the purchaser.
2. In the case where our local printing partners are not able to deliver the ordered merchandise for us and they are not able to fulfill their contractual obligations, then we will inform the customer immediately that the product ordered is not available. We want to ensure our support of our American local printing partners so we are often choosing the local suppliers. This means they may need some time to adapt to our high amount of orders but we want to grow with them and support the local community. We will however inform you the customer immediately in case there are any delays, therefore this does not result in a non refundable case.
3. Once the goods are shipped the risk of goods that may be damaged or perished passes on to the buyer, this means that we, PHYB LLC will not be liable for any damages caused by the shipping company. 
4. Since the merchandise/maps are designed and customized by the user on www.craftoak.com, there is no right for refund if the design is not due to the standards of the customer/purchaser. In such a case this order is not eligible for a return.
5. If the shipment information provided by the customer was incorrect at the time of order, this results in a case where an order is not eligible for a return for such reasons as delay in shipment, etc.

While we do our best to get all our packages ready and shipped, unfortunately, it is not Craft & Oak's responsibility to ensure that your package arrives in time for an occasion. We are dedicated and committed to getting you your order in a timely manner as described in our terms and service and shipping times article, and would rather the package get to you safely and in one piece rather than rushing the process, it takes to quality check and safely package each custom item.

Sometimes delays will happen in either processing or shipping and the majority of the time we are able to deliver packages that are aligned with our estimated shipping times. 

Delays in shipping sometimes happen due to re-routing on our shipping provider's end.  After we ship the packages, we don't have as much control as we'd like over our shipping provider (USPS) and any re-routing that may be necessary on their end. 

In our experience, packages that are listed as "delayed" will be sorted out by the USPS and sent to our respective customers, usually we have seen that the delays are not longer than a few business days. If you are experiencing a longer delay than 3-4 business days, we recommend calling or going into your local USPS post office with the tracking number - the postal service may have more detailed tracking information than what can be seen through our tracking link.

If your tracking's status has been "delayed" for longer than 7-10 business days, please write us and we will see that a possible replacement gets sent out.

There are three typical scenarios that cause this issue:

1. The overwhelmingly majority of the time, the shipping carriers may update the status to "Delivered" just when your package has made it onto the carrier vehicle, allow 1-2 business days for delivery. 
2. Another situation when the tracking information states that your items have been delivered but you have not received it, check around your neighborhood in case another home received it by mistake. Speak with family, roommates, etc. in the event they received it on your behalf. The package may also have been left with property managers or an apartment office.
3. Lastly, carriers may mark the package as "delivered", but in the event that no one was home, they took it back to their facility.

Most of the above issues are resolved naturally - the packages generally get delivered within 1-2 business days.

If you still do not have your package in the next 3 business days after the delivery date on the tracking link, please contact us and we will work with you for a resolution.

Our e-mail is: [email protected], or you can message us on our chat service in the bottom right corner of your screen on the homepage.

We will always do our best to assist you, but Craft & Oak's does not hold responsibility for packages that are lost or stolen in transit. If you are still unable to locate your package, you must contact the shipping carrier to discuss the issue and file a claim with them.

If it's been quite some time (4+ business days after your order), and your package is stuck in the "Pre-Shipment" state - this is because sometimes our shipping provider may have not scanned the package when it was received.

After your order is placed, typically it is shipped within 1 or 2 business days at most. We find that the majority of these packages that are in this "Pre-Shipment" state eventually get updated and delivered to their destination on-time.

If you're still experiencing the same message after 7 business days, please write to us and we will help you troubleshoot further.

If you did not receive your tracking link, please get in touch with us let us know any of the following information to help locate it further - the more information you provide us, the better we can help you figure out where your package is.

1. Your order number (if you have it)
2. The e-mail you used to purchase the order
3. The name your package was addressed to
4. The shipping address you used in association with this order
5. The date or time you placed your order
6. What the contents of the order were (Star Map, City Map, and of what location?)

Once we have some or all of this information, we can do a better job of tracking down the package and provide you with a tracking link, estimated delivery date, or order status.

Thank you!
