INCLUDES A FEE FOR PACKING MATERIALS. FROM EACH ADDITIONAL COMBINED PURCHASE, THIS AMOUNT SHALL BE AUTOMATICALLY SUBTRACTED, AND THE POSTAGE REDUCED ACCORDING TO THE STANDARDS OF THE UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE (USPS).
THERE ARE NO SURCHARGES HERE! BECAUSE OUR PRICES (AND THEREFORE, OUR PROFITS) ARE RELATIVELY LOW, WE CANNOT AFFORD TO ABSORB THESE EXPENSES.
WE DO NOT OFFER 'FREE SHIPPING', AS THIS WOULD DEFEAT THE PURPOSE OF COMBINED SHIPPING (INDIVIDUAL MAILING COSTS ARE INCLUDED IN THE PRICE OF EVERYTHING THAT IS SHIPPED "FOR FREE" AT EBAY; THUS YOU USUALLY PAY MORE FOR IT, NOT LESS!).
INSURANCE IS AVAILABLE AT THE RATE OF $1.00 FOR DELIVERIES WITHIN THE U.S.
IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE COST OF DOMESTIC SHIPPING AND HANDLING.
IF YOU WISH TO OBTAIN INSURANCE, YOU MAY EDIT YOUR TOTAL BY ADDING $1.00 TO THE POSTAGE AND HANDLING CHARGE. BUT--PLEASE INFORM US THAT YOU ARE REQUESTING INSURANCE (PREFERABLY IN THE MESSAGE BOX ON YOUR ORDER FORM). OTHERWISE, WE HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING WHAT IT IS FOR!
INTERNATIONAL ORDERS SHALL BE INSURED AT NO CHARGE, AS A COURTESY TO OUR FOREIGN CUSTOMERS. THE INSURANCE COMPANY WILL INSURE DELIVERIES TO MOST COUNTRIES, BUT--SOME ARE EXCLUDED (SUCH AS MEXICO, CUBA AND VENEZUELA). THIS IS BEYOND OUR CONTROL--UNFORTUNATELY.
ALL INSURED DELIVERIES SHALL COVER THE FULL COST OF THE ARTICLE(S) PLUS POSTAGE AND HANDLING. IF YOUR SHIPMENT IS LOST OR DAMAGED, WE WILL FILE A CLAIM FOR YOU. LET US KNOW IMMEDIATELY IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED A LONG DELAY OR IF YOU HAVE RECEIVED BROKEN OR DESTROYED MERCHANDISE. AND KEEP ALL BROKEN PIECES AND PACKING MATERIALS FOR EVIDENCE OF DAMAGE!
