Fed Ex.
Domestic shipping fees are based on actual cost plus a small packaging cost to cover labor and materials. Most small
domestic items are shipped USPS Priority Mail at a flat rate of $13 plus $2 for
each additional item in the same package. All shipping fees are added to the cost of the item, and payment for shipping is due before shipment is completed.
A buyer may request almost any choice of shipper, and under some circumstances with prior approval we will ship on the customers
shipper account number. All orders are shipped FOB our
dock unless otherwise negotiated. Lost or damaged in transit goods shall be paid
for by the purchaser. Insurance is optional and must be clearly specified in
writing with the order prior to shipment.

rates. Please notify us if you are not prepared to travel to your airport
to pick up your package.

Delay in shipping your order may occur if the wire-transfer amount received is different from the order total amount. Wire-transfer may take 1-2 business days to confirm. It must be confirmed by our bank before shipping can take place.

If your shipping address is different from what's registered with PayPal, your order will be delayed for order verification.
For orders over $200 we require that the Paypal address be confirmed with Paypal. If an order is placed for over $200 on an unconfirmed Paypal account we will reject the order
or require a different form of payment. This is to protect you and the general public against fraud.
If you don't yet have a PayPal account, you may visit www.paypal.com to open an account. The process of obtaining one and getting the money transferred may take 2-6 business days, which may significantly delay your order.
