This strip is in Scott catalogue order as shown. Phil Jordan designed stamps based upon photographs of real ferns. The stamps feature close-up images of different fern species on a white background.

The logos in the images are added digitally and are not printed on the actual stamps. The black background display mount is not included. For pane singles the straight edge position may vary. For blocks/strips the position order will always be exactly as pictured.

Regarding Purchasing:

• Purchasing is self service. If you do not understand our terms please feel free to contact us for an invoice. We typically will not send a manual invoice because we have no way of knowing when you are done shopping until you ask.

• You will need to please pay combined. You will receive individual notifications from eBay with payment information after each item. You are free to combine and pay at any time that you are ready. Payments should be made within "reasonable time" following purchase. If this is not possible then please contact us ahead of time to make payment arrangements.

• Please do not pay for items separately (one at a time). This increases the fees that both eBay and PayPal charge us. Higher business costs means that we have to raise our stamp prices.

• Example - When purchasing more than 1 item, please Do Not immediately click confirm and pay now after each item that has been clicked buy now. Simply wait until you have all the items you want and then pay all together in one payment. Payment should automatically combine. If it does not please contact us.

• If you need to use checkout, please do it once to request a combined invoice. Please message us at any time. We welcome all questions or comments!

Important information about Shipping & Feedback

Regarding Shipping:

• Items will be shipped together (even if you ignore these polite reminders and pay separately).

• Shipping is always free to USA. We actually lose money on shipping and have not raised our rates in 20 years!

• The security of your order is guaranteed by our special packaging. Tracking is provided when available.

• We ship Internationally but not to every country in the world. Please verify postage rates before purchasing. Large International orders will be shipped via US Registered Mail at current rates. Please understand that Registered International mail might take as long as a month to deliver after we have posted it and patience is appreciated.

• We always ship at earliest convenience. This means that a mail-run may occur multiple times a day. We have no control over the speed of mail, but have found the USPS to be very reliable. We strive to be competitive in all aspects of the eBay market. If for any reason you are unhappy we hope that you will contact us for quick resolution.

Regarding Feedback:

• Feedback is left following the conclusion of each transaction. Feedback is not left immediately because the transaction is not over until you have your stamps and we know that all is well. The fastest way to receive feedback is to leave it for us and we should soon respond in turn.

• We always leave feedback for each positive transaction. There is never a need to ask us. We never send messages to customers asking for feedback but hope that they will choose to leave a positive.

• We would rather work things out but reserve the right to refuse service to anybody at any time. Stamp collectors as a whole are very honest people. A few bad apples attempt to manipulate the system for personal gain or other reasons. These parties are blocked. We politely ask blocked bidders not to contact us.
