Shipping Cost:
is .85 by USPS in US only. I also offer eBay Global shipping.    Most shipments that cost over .00 to ship are shipped priority mail which includes up to .00 insurance for item damage.  IF you would like more coverage.  It is up to YOU to request and pay extra insurance coverage which shipping company charges for.  Most shipping companies charge around an extra .00 per every 0.00 requested.  So, if you would like this. Please request it before item is paid and we can invoice you for it.  And again, REMEMBER we DO NOT own the shipping companies.  This is their policy. If you do wish to try to find or use your own shipping company and think you can receive a lower price then what we offer.   Just send us your label with our return address on it.  We will use you.  Just remember that if you choose to go this route.  You MUST take responsibility for label expense and shipping insurance.  For global quotes, please e-mail eBay for global shipping quotes.   This price includes insurance & tracking.  We offer FREE PICK UP if you purchase over 0.00 worth of items, if this is offered/arranged. Items are shipped on Monday’s, Wednesday’s and Saturday’s.  PLEASE give the shipping company at least 24-48 hrs. to process and scan item/s before asking WHY your item isn’t shipped and or e-mail within 24hrs asking why you haven’t received a shipping confirmation.  Please be patient.  We ship items ASAP but only during noted business hrs.    Please note:  If shipping company doesn’t work on weekends and holidays. You cannot count that day as a business shipping day.  So please note that when calculating days for item arrival.  Most items arrive 2-3 business days and some 3-5 business days depending upon your location.  Out of the country/U.S. will of course take longer.  Some items may offer combined shipping on large orders only (NOT SMALL ORDERS). Again, we DO NOT make money on shipping fees. In most cases we lose money with their fees and shipping materials used.   Depending upon if items are coming from same distribution location.  We do NOT make money on shipping rates.  These are what are charged by the shipping company, plus eBay charges 15% on shipping fees.  So, we have to endure these fees as well.
