Shipping:  Although Hawaii is part of the United States, it is important to know when purchasing items that shipping times can be a bit longer and shipping charges can be a bit higher than for the US mainland. Please keep this in mind when rating my shipping charges and handling times, as your ratings have immediate discount or listing-standing consequences for me. Thank you for understanding!!! 

Packing material:  I charge you my costs for all packing materials used.  However, this is Hawaii and not the continental US, and everything has to be shipped in from out of state.  To give you an idea, a shipping box, if it is not a free one from the Post Office, costs between $4 - $9.  Bubble wrap costs $1 per foot and I usually use at least 3 or 4 feet or more for breakable items. Foam chips per box (book box size) will be between $8 - $10, and packing tape costs me $3 a small roll.
