Yard of Blue rayon satin ribbon unused from the 1930s, choose from 2 widths, 3.4cms and 5cms

I aim to send goods within 2 to 3 working days of receiving cleared payment. I will contact you if for any reason it is going to take longer than that.

Within the UK items are sent by 1st class post, for International destinations I use Royal Mail standard airmail service or International Tracked airmail for more valuable parcels

I am unable to predict an exact delivery time for overseas purchases as customs clearance times and local delivery schedules vary widely around the globe. However, as a rule, packages sent to addresses within Europe take 3 to 5 business days and to the USA, Australia and Japan 6 to 9 business days.

I'm afraid that I cannot be responsible for delays caused by customs authorities or the postal service as can happen from time to time. I regret I am unable to accept orders from Romania and any orders placed will be cancelled.

For international shipments including now the EU a customs declaration has to accompany the package and I always state the actual sales price of the goods. Please do not ask for a lower value to be stated or for the item to be marked as a gift. Please note that any customs duties, VAT or handling charges applied locally are the responsibility of the buyer.

I make a small charge for packaging. That cost is included in the postage charge.

I am happy to reserve items for a maximum of 7 days. After that time the reserve will be removed and the item put back on sale to all customers, unless agreed otherwise. Sorry to impose this, but it is disappointing when the well intentioned buyer doesn't complete their purchase as planned.

Please be sure to request a 'reserve' of an item if you are considering a purchase but are asking for further information or images before making a final decision. Items sell quickly on Etsy and I do sell privately also, and without a reserve being specifically requested, it isn't possible to guarantee that an item will still be available when you come to purchase.

I use recyclable postage bags or cardboard packages for shipping. Occasionally for other larger items I will reuse boxes wherever possible, perhaps even an original vintage thread box. I only use acid free tissue paper.
