Shipping
DOMESTIC SHIPPING
------------------------------
Items ship USPS priority mail, first class or Parcel Select (if large and/or heavy)- all include a tracking number which can be found on your receipt page.
______________________________________________________________

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
--------------------------------------
International orders are shipped 1st class. International orders can take about week to a little over a month to arrive. I have no control over how long international orders may sit in customs.
International buyers are responsible for paying any and all customs fees they may incur on their orders. I will not mark purchases as "gift" as it is illegal to do so. If you refuse a package by not paying the VAT you will not be refunded any shipping.
Additional policies and FAQs
I have a basic "how to" for determining your measurements on my About page:

Frequently asked questions
What size it?

Please use the measurements and info provided in the item details. Letter and number sizing is an approximation. There is no industry standard on sizing, so it can be subjective. (This is why you might wear a 2 from one big box store and a 6 from another.) I urge you to use the measurements provided to determine your best fit.

What is your best price / Can I get a discount?

My prices are fair and firm. Sorry, I don't give discounts.

How does combined shipping work?

When buying multiple items, shipping will auto-combine in your cart. On the rare occasion there will still be an overage. I refund overages exceeding $3.

Do you offer local pick-up?

Only for people I know.
