3. What is the last day to order to receive before Christmas?
Since our customized laptops and desktops have lead-times, please ensure your “Ships on” date is December 16th or earlier to receive before 12/25. Or, you can choose a ready-to-ship computer.
Note that our customized commercial-series products (including Z, Elite, Pro) may have an earlier cut-off date (review the product for details).
For ready-to-ship products which have a lead-time (usually these will be products on backorder), please ensure that the estimated ship date and shipping speed will meet your needs for delivery.
Please understand that supply constraints may unexpectedly prevent us from shipping on time for Christmas delivery. Therefore, if time to receive is critical for you, please consider an in-stock, ready-to-ship computer which you can find here:
For in-stock, read-to-ship products, please be sure to order in time for the shipment to reach your destination and choose the needed shipping speed.
Between the dates of 12/15 – 12/20, please use the ‘Express’ or "Priority" shipping option to ensure your order arrives when you need it and/or prior to Christmas (12/25).
4. What should I know about shipping times this holiday season?
HP and all retailers are expecting a very busy holiday season again this year. Shipping carriers including FedEx and UPS are expecting high package volume through November and December. While we have prepared for increased volume, there may be unexpected delays that arise in the shipping and delivery process. Please keep this in mind and use your shipment tracking number(s) to track your packages.
