I prefer Paypal payments, but also accept money orders (including International money orders in U.S. dollars from non-U.S. buyers), and personal checks in U.S. dollars drawn from U.S. banks. Personal checks must clear before shipping - this can take up to two weeks, but is often quicker than that.

I try to ship within three business days of receiving your cleared payment, and I often ship the same or next day. If shipping is delayed for any reason, I'll be sure to let you know.

Please let me know if you have any specific shipping requests, i.e. cheapest rate possible, fastest in-transit time possible, delayed shipping if you are going to be out of town, etc.

I choose from a variety of United States Postal Service shipping methods (Priority, Parcel Post, First Class, Media Mail) depending on the size, weight, destination, and nature of the item(s) being shipped.

I am an expert packer and use sturdy, quality shipping materials in efforts to ensure that your items travel safely.
