Shipping and Shipping Costs:
Foreign shipping charges are based on the actual cost of shipping and insurance, plus a small handling fee. In order to keep the cost to you as low as possible, we have discontinued the use of Shipping Tables. If you need an estimate please call or send email. For explaination of our shipping strategy and policy please go HERE.
Generally Your Choices for Shipping include:
Global EMS - Usually only costs a few dollars more than Air Parcel Post. Takes a few days.
Air Parcel Post (our default method) Takes about a week.
FEDEX - if we use your account number. Two or three days. Very, very expensive.
Surface Mail. Takes several months. No insurance available.
Important Note: FEDEX and UPS are extremely expensive, please be prepared to spend $80 or more for delivery of a very small package. We recommend you have us ship to a freight broker here in the USA.
We no longer quote shipping charges, but can give you an estimate, or, you can estimate shipping costs yourself by going to the USPS Website. Most of the time your order will be sent Air Parcel Post or Global EMS.
Important Note: We hate to pay shipping charges as much as you do. If we charge fifty dollars to ship something to you, it means we have to pay to turn around and pay the carrier fifty dollars for his services. For more information on shipping charges, please go HERE.
Items Marked with an "S"
Items marked with an "S" require us to calculate shipping charges for you because these items are extra heavy, are hazardous materials, or require some other special packaging consideration. Most "S" items are too heavy or hazardous to be shipped to a foreign destination. More information on "S" shipping charges.
