***Payment is due within 48 hours of close of auction. An Unpaid Item Case will automatically be opened after 48 hours, and the item will be relisted or offered to the second highest bidder.  I so hate to go there...***
I ship via USPS, least expensive option available within 24-48 hours of receipt of payment.  Additional postal services, i.e. Priority/Express delivery, insurance, etc. available at buyer's request.
INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS WELCOME
International buyers are solely responsible for any international shipping fees, i.e. customs, taxes, etc.
(I have found that the Ebay calculation for international shipping is often higher than the actual fees. When I discover that actual shipping costs are substantially less than charged, I issue a partial shipping refund via Paypal. Hope this helps!)
A portion of all of my sales is donated to charity. Buyer may request specific charity prior to payment.
THANKS FOR LOOKING!
