Upon request, you may also coordinate your own shipping directly with a preferred carrier by making all arrangements regarding pick-up and packaging requirements. Except with respect to a delivery arranged through our in-house delivery team, the risk of loss and title for all Merchandise sold by Scout Design Studio passes to you upon our delivery to the carrier.
