Thank you. Shipping: In an effort to reduce shipping costs, I will mail USPS First Class Mail - 2-3 day delivery in a small padded envelope in most cases. If it is small copper findings, I may wrap in cardstock and mail in standard envelope. I will ship FREE OF CHARGE in the United States. I will ship first class USPS to Cananda and Mexico -6-10 business day delivery in a small padded envelope for $2.00; Mexico $5.00; all other countries $7.00. If you are outside the US, you will be responsible for any additional costs due to duties. I will be able to provide a confirmation and tracking number or insurance for an additional charge. Please let me know before check out if those services are required prior to check out; otherwise, it will not be included to save us both additional shipping costs. If actual shipping first class outside the United States is less than above price estimated, I will be happy to credit your paypal account for the difference. If you would like to arrange alternative shipping such as UPS or USPS Priority mailing, please feel free to request. I will only charge what is above my normal shipping costs.
