Payment
Shipping
I do my best to ship the following business day after payment is received and items are processed. Most listings have calculated shipping with expedited upgrades available to you. Shipping fees are based on the weight of the item in its packaging. Domestic USA ships via Priority Mail. International ships First Class International and Priority International for orders over $400). Please read item description for specific to item shipping.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS ARE DELAYED DUE TO COVID. I SUGGEST UPGRADING TO USPS PRIORITY INTERNATIONAL AT CHECK-OUT.
International customers are responsible for all fees associated with shipping to their respective countries. Orders that are shipped to countries outside of the United States may be subject to import taxes, customs duties and fees levied by the destination country. The recipient of an international shipment may be subject to such import taxes, customs duties and fees, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by the recipient; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; you should contact your local customs office for further information. When customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. All international orders will have full value declared on customs forms - no exceptions.
Lost or undelivered packages must be reported to me within 90 days from the ship date to file a claim and receive a refund. NO EXCEPTIONS.
