Shipping:

USPS First-Class Package

We combine shipping whenever possible to save on your shipping costs. If you purchase more than one item at a time, please request an invoice before paying. EBay will not allow combined shipping on multiple "Buy-It-Now" purchases, so place all items in your cart and then request an invoice.

Shipping charges for the heaviest items are combined with discounted shipping charges for each of the lighter items.

A note about shipping charges: Both eBay and PayPal collect a portion of the shipping charge (usually about 25%) from all orders. For example, if you pay us $8.00 for shipping, we only receive about $6.00. Therefore we cannot charge you the actual shipping charges; we must add about 25% to the actual shipping charge. That allows us to break even on the shipping cost. Please complain to eBay and PayPal as this is just a hidden money-maker for eBay and PayPal.
