How Long Does StockX Take to Ship?

StockX strives to get started on the orders within two days. Usually, StockX takes 6-10 business days to ship. Sometimes, it might also take up to 7-12 business days, depending on certain circumstances. Also, it is to be remembered that the business days don’t include weekends and holidays.


StockX Shipping & Delivery Process

The exact shipping time depends on the speed with which the seller can send the item. Then, there is the authentication process that the company needs to complete before shipping the item. All this takes time, but StockX tends to complete most of its orders on time.

Once the item has undergone its verification process, StockX sends the tracking information via email for you to track the order and be updated. StockX also sends a confirmation email to the seller company with the shipping deadline. 

The deadline depends on the type of product which is being shipped. It’s 3 business days for new release items, 5 days for supreme designed items, and some others are given 2 business days as well.

However, StockX does have a special delivery process to facilitate fast deliveries. It’s called NextDay delivery. If you are in a hurry and can pay a little extra, then you can choose this option and receive your item within 3 days.

It’s not exactly true to its name as it doesn’t provide the delivery on the next day itself, still, it’s something if you are in an urgent need.


Why does StockX Take so Long to Ship? (sometime)

There are several reasons why StockX sometimes takes so long to ship. 

  • First of all, the authentication procedure, which is an important step for StockX, takes a fair amount of time to complete.
  • Secondly, different sellers have different delivery speeds. Plus, at times they might need to deal with delays from the sellers’ end, due to any unforeseen circumstances, which can delay the next shipping procedures. And sometimes there are certain payout delays as well from the seller or the buyers.
  • Thirdly, there are different shipping deadlines for different products and hence the shipping time also depends on the type of item that the customers choose to buy.
  • Fourthly, international deliveries need to undergo certain important procedures, follow strict rules and observe certain regulations at the customs or document verification points, etc. This can sometimes delay the entire shipping procedure.
  • Fifth comes the weekends and holidays when StockX abstains from performing any of its regular operations. So, if any orders are made during this time, it takes some time to start the shipping procedure.
  • Last but not the least, the current COVID19 situation too had a huge impact and contributed towards causing delays in shipping and delivery. In certain extreme cases, it’s reported to have caused about 2-3 weeks of delays because of high demands among the COVID headwinds. 

Apart from these, there might be certain other unpredictable situations that can pop up suddenly forcing StockX to delay the shipping for the time being. However, other than these, the company tries its best to have its orders shipped and delivered right on time.

I hope it answers your question “how long does StockX take to ship”.
