PLEASE NOTE The US Postal Service has raised it's rates for First Class International (the least expensive method) packages by nearly 25%. A single slide in safe packing (approx. 1.6 oz.weight) now costs $US13.50 for postage cost. The good news is that approximately 10 slides can be sent for about the same price. We will be regularly listing antique slides, so if you are outside the US and plan to bid on more than one auction, please let us know! We can hold your won slides and combine them in one parcel for reduced post cost.

We always combine postage on multiple slide purchases, and you will only pay the actual cost to ship your slides to your location. The Flat Rate charge shown in the auction is an estimate.
