We can often combine items purchased from our other lots the same day into the same package with this lot to save you shipping costs. NOTICE: Since insurance covers only the goods but not the costs to ship them, the buyer agrees that once we have proof of delivery of the package to the post office (which is usually the Postal Receipt we receive from the postal window clerk at the time of mailing), that if the package or its contents is lost in the mails and not delivered or is damaged in shipping that any refund is limited to the purchase price and any sales tax (if applicable) and does not include a refund of the shipping or insurance. For international buyers, we label our customs tags as "merchandise" and you are responsible for all customs, duties or other import fees into your country.
