We try to keep shipping prices as low as possible. If your shipping is more than what we pay - we will refund the overcharge. Refunds may take a few days to process during busy times.

Our shipping charges reflect the cost of packaging, postage and fees.

We strive to mail out all items purchased as soon as possible. We are open Monday through Friday. During the RUSH season of October through December it may take up to 10 days to prepare your order.

Please contact us if you need a rush order. We will do our best to help you out. RUSH orders are not guaranteed during the busy season.

Customs and import taxes
Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply. We are not responsible for delays due to customs.

We SHIP TO THE ADDRESS ON Your ETSY Account! Please make sure it is correct. If you want it shipped elsewhere, please leave a MESSAGE in the INVOICE NOTES.

Tracking your Package - US Priority and Express Packages are trackable. First Class orders are inexpensive to ship, but will have very little tracking information and no insurance.

International Packages are only TRACKABLE if they are sent EXPRESS MAIL.

*Note* we don't make money from shipping. However, shipping costs vary from state to state and country to country, etc. We have tried to set up my shipping costs using an average of all places weI ship. It can be tricky to estimate shipping, especially out of the United States. Larger orders may be more expensive than your invoice states.

***WE ALWAYS REFUND ANY SHIPPING OVERCHARGES BACK TO YOUR ETSY ACCOUNT after we pack and weigh your order.

INTERNATIONAL ORDERS
In our experience, the following countries hold packages for 1-2 weeks in customs or are commonly lost in transport: I would advise requesting insurance for these countries:
GERMANY
SPAIN

If a package is lost, we do our best to help locate your package or send a replacement.

Please don't be afraid to ask any questions you may have in this regard!**

***We always include an invoices with orders, this helps us all keep better records and confirms that you've received the items you ordered.

Thanks!

Here's a run down of the different types of aluminum I have available:

PURE 1100 ALUMINUM
Pure aluminum is FOOD SAFE and safe on your skin. A perfect choice for projects that will come in direct contact with your skin. There are less skin reactions with FOOD SAFE ALUMINUM, than with STERLING SILVER..

3003 ALUMINUM - stronger but not as pure. THIS METAL IS Commercially Pure and could cause skin irritation for a few people. This metal is fine for designs that do not touch your skin - tie bars, money clips...

***This is also great for covering with fabric or as a BASE for POLYMER clay.

Sterling Silver - .925
Pewter
Copper
Jeweler's Brass
Surgical Steel - 316L
Stainless Steel

Metal Hardness is called Temper...
SOFT TEMPER
Very soft and great for metal stamping. Thick cuffs are easy to bend with the SOFT Temper. It takes a very clear impression and is very gently on your tools. Soft temper can be hardened by hammering the surface with a nylon non-marking hammer. Check our shop for this item
or
HARD TEMPER
Stiff metal that will not bend out of shape. Use the HARD TEMPER for all charms and discs.

Hope this helps you decide what metal is best for your aluminum discs, aluminum cuffs, or ring blanks at Gotta Getta Deal on ETSY!!!

Have fun creating!!!
