It varies, sometimes 2 weeks sometimes a month. I’ve only NOT received one book but all others came usually within a month

It says 4-6 weeks on my recent win. And it said to let them know if I hadn’t received it after 30 days.

Usually within 2 weeks for physical books. Ebooks I get right after I receive the email.

Still waiting for the latest print book I won. You can mark not received after a certain time frame, but most have been 2-3 weeks. Kindle editions are auto added to my device.

I’ve had some arrive in less than a week, some that took 6 weeks, and others that never came at all (surprisingly from major publishers, not independent authors). I would say average is probably 2½-3 weeks

Sometimes it takes only a week or two, but right now I have one that I won June 24th and still haven’t received it. I already pushed the button to let them know I haven’t received it, but who knows when it’ll get here ?

Most of the books I’ve won have been Kindle books so overnight. Most of the paper books I’ve won took 10 to 21 days.

Sometimes within a couple of weeks. I have only not ever received one book and I have won lots of books. Sometimes it has been 4 or 5 weeks.

The 2 books I won came in the mail and I wasn’t expecting them because I hadn’t been notified! Was a very nice surprise!
