Combine Different Items In One Order To Save On Shipping
For *most multiple items being ordered at the same time we follow the chart above. Unfortunately, because of an eBay rate listing limitation, the rates above don't always show up in the shopping cart correctly when ordering multiple items at the same time.
When checking out, if you see that the shipping costs are higher than the chart above, just contact us and we will put the correct rate into your checkout. We have programmed the cart so that *most multiple items totaling over $100 will automatically have the correct rate.
* There are, of course, exceptions to the above rates. For instance, strings have a lower ship rate when ordered alone while large or heavy items, such as instrument outfits or cases, have a slightly higher rate. Please see our Items with Special Shipping Rates chart above. Our individual item pages also have the correct rates posted for that item.
* If you order other items along with an item with a higher shipping rate, such as an instrument, there will not be two shipping charges. The "other items" will be shipped along with the "special item" at no extra charge.
We Ship Worldwide
We will ship to just about anywhere! Because of any special shipping rates that might be neccessary, we kindly ask you to contact us with your shipping information and we will quickly let you know what the shipping rate will be.
Important Information for International Customers

Expedited and Rush Shipping

When Will My Stuff Ship?
