Shipping policy
Shipping within the United States
All orders ship for the rate calculated at checkout. I use USPS for my preferred shipping carrier and I ship via First-Class or Priority Mail with tracking. If you would like insurance on your package, this is an additional cost and is the responsibility of the buyer. Please read the additional important info regarding insurance below.
If you prefer to have your item shipped faster or through another carrier, this negates the free shipping offer and the shipping rates will be added to your order.
Shipping Internationally
Shipping costs vary based on the destination. Any and all duties, taxes, fees, etc. associated with international shipping are the responsibility of the buyer. If you need a quote, please contact me at shanbun@cox.net and I will do my best to get you an accurate quote.
Shipping Time Frame
Ready-to-ship items will go out 3-5 days after the order is placed (quite often sooner). Made-to-order and custom pieces will have the timeline stated individually in each listing (most likely it will be about 3 weeks).
Additional Important Info
Please note that I can no longer be responsible for the package once it has left my hands. I always ship with tracking and you can use your tracking number to contact USPS regarding it's whereabouts if it is missing at 1-800-ASK-USPS® (1-800-275-8777). Purchasing insurance on your package prior to shipping (for the total cost of the item) is recommended and can be helpful if there is a loss or damage to the package.
