| Shipping Information:
We always offer our buyers at least two shipping options on domestic purchases. We proudly offer USPS priority mail, USPS parcel post or UPS ground shipping options. Our standard policy is to ship within 24 hours of receipt of cleared payment. In the rare instance when shipping is delayed, we will notify you via e-mail. Insurance is optional on most items, and if it is required, it will be stated in the listing.
We are delighted to offer a multiple shipping discount on items paid for in a single invoice. If buying multiple items, please wait for our invoice so that we can apply the shipping discount to the invoice. Most of our shipping quotes include a handling fee of $1.50 to defray the cost of packaging. Our smaller items, such as our pet charms, have a $.50 handling fee. Please understand that we do not make money on our shipping costs.
In May 2007, the United States Postal Service changed its international shipping options and rates. First Class International has replaced the airmail letter post and economy letter post options. Priority International has replaced the airmail parcel post and economy parcel post options. These rates can be higher than the old rates and, unfortunately, we have no control over them. For international shipments we will try to make the package as compact as possible with proper bubble wrapping to reduce the shipping cost as much as possible. We have made numerous international sales and all of our international buyers have been very satisfied with their buying experience with us. |
