Dear Customers: The US Post Office has had 3 rate increases in the last three years. I have not passed this down to the customer in the past, but please understand that while I try to give you the best price possible, at some point this creates a negative impact on my already small profits. As of 2/2016 I have had to increase my rates as well. I DO COMBINE SHIPPING - PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE BEFORE PAYING. BECAUSE EBAY CHARGES FEES ON SHIPPING, I CAN NO LONGER REFUND OVERPAYMENT OF SHIPPING IF YOU PAY INDIVIDUALLY FOR YOUR ITEMS. PAYMENT TO ARRIVE WITHIN 3 DAYS OF SALE. I SHIP MONDAY-WED-FRIDAY BEFORE NOON EXCEPT ON HOLIDAYS. THANKS SO MUCH FOR BUYING AND BIDDING!
