Shipping & Delivery

Q: How do you pack the glass so it doesn't break?

A: We have specially designed boxes for shipping sheet glass in most Bullseye sizes. Each box can hold eight 3mm sheets. Large-quantity sheet glass orders are packed in sturdy wooden crates, then banded together or palletized for safe transport. 20 or more full sheets can fit in a wooden crate, and shipped via freight carrier, which usually saves on shipping fees. To take advantage of this, you can click HELP ME WITH SHIPPING OR WILL CALL and a sales person will contact you.


Q: When will I receive my order?

A: Orders ship anywhere between 2 and 7 business days after being received, depending on volume. Shipping times depend on ship to locations and carrier. Expedited orders usually ship within 2 business days. Shipping industry standards continue to be in flux since 2020, and most carriers no longer guarantee transit times.

Q: If my order seems too large for the shipping method offered, can I contact Bullseye to find out if better shipping options are available?

A: Bullseye sales associates are always happy to discuss the best way to ship your order. Simply contact us at sales@bullseyeglass.com or call 503.232.8887, Mon-Fri, 7am–5pm (Pacific Time).


Q: Can I shop through the Bullseye Online Store and pick up at a Bullseye Glass Resource Center?

A: Yes! To learn how, visit our page on ordering in advance for in-store pickup.

Q: What are Curious glasses?

A: The grading system for our handmade glass demands that each sheet match a target color and have a uniform appearance to receive first-quality grade. Glass that is not quite the target color or that has some other irregularity is graded “Curious” and is sold at a discount. Curious glass that is fusible is graded “Fusible-Curious” and is also sold at a discount. Fusible-Curious sheets are held to the same compatibility requirements as first-quality sheets. Our Curious and Fusible-Curious sheets are excellent for one-of-a-kind projects and are a great value for your dollar. Some of these sheets may be found in the Limited section of our online store. A much wider selection is available when you order by phone or email or when you shop at our Resource Center and some regional dealerships.


Q: What are Special Production glasses?

A: Occasionally we produce limited runs of top grade glass styles that are not included in our regular product line. We refer to these as “Special Production” sheets. Special Production sheets may be one-of-a-kind or available in multiples. They may be fusible or non-fusible. Some Special Production sheets may be found in the Limited section of our online store. Often, a wider selection is available when you order by phone or email or when you shop at our Resource Center and some regional dealerships.


Q: What are “Striking” glasses?

A: A small number of Bullseye glasses appear pale or colorless in the cold sheet, but “strike” or change dramatically to target color when fired. The images of striking glasses on this site show how colors appear before and after firing. Striking colors can vary, depending on temperature, atmosphere and amount of heatwork. For projects that are especially color-sensitive, we recommend fusing or torchworking a small sample of striking glasses before use to best predict final color results.

Q: Why are gold-bearing stringer styles packed differently?

A: Tubes of colors made with gold contain fewer stringers, to reduce unit price. For example, a tube of gold-bearing 1 mm Cranberry Pink (001311) contains approximately 87 pieces, while a tube of 2 mm contains approximately 33 pieces.


Q: Can I get samples of your glasses?

A: Yes. Our popular sample sets are great resources for any studio. Note that these samples are for color reference only. They are not intended for reheating and may not be fusible.


Q: What is 'Prop 65'?

A: The State of California requires clear and reasonable warnings on products containing chemicals that have been shown to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm, even if these products contain only trace levels.
Manufacturers of certain products include warnings pursuant to California Proposition 65, and caution is recommended when using products marked with the Prop 65 icon.
