The Fine Print
Shipping: I offer Same Day Shipping on most items whenever possible (nights, weekends, and holidays are the general exception). I also combine shipping, and try to balance costs of shipping and making sure you get your item quickly and in one piece. Sorry, sales are limited to the Lower Forty Eight (USA). Please take note: Heavier packages I may have to estimate and correct the final costs upwards. Where the buyer has overpaid shipping, I will generally refund the difference over a dollar.
Returns: I know what it's like to buy something online and then get the package and it isn't what was expected. I therefore offer a Satisfaction Guaranteed Return Policy, contingent on the item being returned in the same condition as was sent. In most cases, I will expect the buyer to pay all or most of the shipping cost on a return, though at my discretion I can offer the return cost as a credit toward another purchase. Any requests within reason will be honored, please contact me to discuss the situation and how best to resolve your concerns.
Feel free to contact me at any time with questions. Thank you!
