INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING INFORMATION: International orders are processed and shipped via the ebay Global Shipping Program.

All items will be well-packaged for International shipping. (I have been

doing this for a long time, and use the golden rule of packaging. I ship

items the way I would like to receive them.) 

All items will be shipped in a poly sleeve with vinyl outside of protective

sleeve, with a cardboard stiffener insert, inside a 200lb test lp

mailer.

International buyers will pay for US shipping to the eBay Global Shipping Program

sorting center, plus any additional charges that eBay adds for

International shipping and fees via the Global Shipping Program. The

Global Shipping Program is not currently providing multiple-item

shipping discounts.  FYI: I am using the ebay Global Shipping Program so

that International buyers have access. I have no control over the GSP

rates, which at first may seem a bit high. But please bear in mind that

GSP prices include tracking for International orders. (Because of past

problems, I can no longer ship International eBay transactions without

tracking... and I cannot provide International shipping with tracking at

anything close to the GSP prices. So if you factor in the tracking, GSP

prices are reasonable.) However, if the shipping rates/fees quoted by

eBay are too much for you, please shop elsewhere.

Although I ship most packages same business day as ordering, I

cannot be responsible for package taking a long time to arrive /

shipping not arriving or lost (2024).
