All items are placed in a sheet protector with strong cardboard backing so your item will not bend. I ship my items out every Tuesday or Wednesday. Shipping for the USA and Canada is 2.50 for the first item anywhere else is 4.00 per item. I do combine shipping for more than one item. If you need insurance or a different shipping method please contact me. I am not responsible for lost or damaged items. You may return your item if you are not happy with it for a full refund on the item not including shipping costs.
