Question 2

Processing time

Accepted Answer

Please note that all items on our website are made to order, with a standard time for woodwork completion of approximately 2 weeks. If you receive your order earlier than expected, it means that we have put extra effort into ensuring your satisfaction. If you need your order sooner than the standard time, please let us know as we may have rush options available.

Please also consider transit time and possible shipping delays from the carrier when placing your order to ensure that you receive it in a timely manner.

Question 3

Pricing

Accepted Answer

The prices for our paddles vary depending on the size and design, with options ranging from $30 to $100+.

We offer competitive pricing compared to local campus Greek stores that sell traditional paddles. If you are interested in customizing your paddle, please note that additional costs may apply for each customization. However, it is possible to create a low-cost custom paddle if you are on a budget. For reference, a popular choice is a 3-foot paddle for $80, with a custom top piece starting at $25 and Greek letters cut out in the middle for an additional $20. Please keep in mind that prices may vary depending on the specific customization requests.
