We
offer 1 day handling, meaning we mail items within 24 hours of purchase
(except on weekends and non mailing holidays of course) , but seeing
how we are in North Pole Alaska, items may take 3-5 days longer to
arrive at the destination than what eBay's notice quotes. They no longer
process mail in Alaska, so an item I mail here takes 1 day to get from North
Pole to Anchorage, then usually 1 day to be flown to a processing
center, then 1 day to get sorted. So there's a lag time of 3 days in
there that eBay does not take into consideration for Sellers that are in
Alaska. So please keep that in mind when buying from us to add those
extra travel days to the expected arrival time that eBay sends you.
Thank You!
**Sales Tax**
eBay does collect sales tax for towns & states that have a sales tax - we personally do not see any of that money, it is handled by eBay.
**International Buyers** – Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item
price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these
additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying. These charges are
normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when
you pick the item up – do not confuse them for additional shipping
charges.
on January 21, 2018 the USPS changed their mailing rules to where all merchandise is to be sent at package rate and no longer able to mail as first class letter rate- unfortunately I have to change all my rates to package rates now to keep my standing with USPS -- We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
**special note on arrival times
International
mail has taken anywhere from 7 days to a month to arrive, (item can be
held up in customs or at anywhere along the line) this is just how the
postal system works, we mail things out the next day after the item is
paid for and hopefully that helps in getting the item to you as fast as
the postal system can get it there.
