International shipping costs are very expensive. Please ask before bidding if shipping cost is an issue. The first few ounces of shipping weight, which includes the envelope and cardboard, are the greatest part of the cost. For example, 1-2 ounces to United Kingdom (and most of Europe) would be $7.35, 3-4 oz. $10.45, 5-8 oz. $13.95, 9-12 oz. $16.35, 13-16 oz. $18.25. Every 4 ounces after that: $20.25, 22.15, 24.15, and 2 whole pounds (32 oz.) for $26.10. Canada ranges from $7.35 to $17.95 (from 2 oz. to 32 oz.) So, combining multiple items reduces the per/item shipping cost quite a bit (only one cardboard, one envelope). Note: I do pack with stiff backing to protect these wonderful items en route, so that the items are more likely to arrive safely and in the same condition they left me, rather than if I were to send them in just a plain envelope. I weigh every piece to be as accurate as possible! As noted below, we are always happy to combine similar items won within a few days or so. Just let me know when you are done bidding. Please do not pay for items one or two at a time. Wait for ONE COMBINED INVOICE from me reflecting all your multiple wins, to save on the shipping costs. If you have any questions, please contact me.

Shipping weight: 4 ounces <<>> Please read the following: Always happy to combine items of similar auctions to save on shipping!! Please note: Unfortunately, international rates have increased significantly. Sorry, the rates are beyond my control. However, my quotes for shipping are for actual shipping plus a minimal charge for packing materials when applicable (usually between 25 and 50 cents), but no extra handling charges. I add tracking for packages sent within the US If you are outside the US, you should contact me beforehand for a shipping price - I want you to be sure you want the item before bidding, considering how high the international shipping can be. If you have won more than one auction, you must wait for MY invoice (NOT Ebay's) to show any savings in combined shipping costs. Ebay will not combine the shipping costs - it will merely add up each individual shipping charge for a huge grand total. Let me save you some money! Payment Methods: In the U.S: Paypal is preferred. Payment is expected within 7 days. We will not assume responsibility f... read more
