Buyers in Canada, UK, Germany, Australia or Japan – read below before purchase !!

Stamps come from a smoke free home.

Glad to combine shipping on stamp purchases. However only able to do so if you request INVOICE BEFORE PAYMENT.

US - CHOICES: 

eBay Standard Envelope for CV < $20 any number of stamps up to 3.5oz, includes tracking (insurance at buyer’s request / expense). 

Ground Advantage (First Class) for CV < $40: any number of stamps up to 4oz (contact for rates over 4oz), includes tracking (insurance at buyer’s request / expense). 

Priority Mail for CV<$100 with insurance and tracking (any weight).

 Most International:

eBay International Shipping  and they will handle ALL customs forms, VAT, duties, robust tracking, etc. 

Canada - UK - Germany - Japan – Australia - Also offer:: 

 

..      Economy Shipping - only orders with CV <$10 (tracking or insurance at buyer’s request / expense).  This economical choice is sent standard US Postal Service without customs forms and most small person to person (not to businesses) envelopes pass without incident.  Stamp dealers in UK and Australia have made smallish purchases using this choice, and I’d guess they know more than I, but you accept the small risk that Border Agencies may delay and/or lose your items sent without tracking. ONLY select it understanding your local regulations and that you may have deal with customs forms and/or pay duties and taxes later.   Otherwise, please choose a more complete service such as eBay international above.
