Sorry but no international shipping and no returns unless I've made a mistake. Packaging is often recycled, but items are packed well. I work hard to describe items accurately and provide good customer service. I want you to be happy and enjoy your purchase. Shipping price is for mainland U.S.; Alaska and Hawaii will be at cost. I try to price all shipping at cost rather than try to make extra that way. (Please note eBay assesses fees on postage too.) Feedback is important, helping both buyer and seller, and takes less than a minute. Please be a responsible buyer and pay promptly or notify me if there's been an unanticipated delay. If you have any issues with your purchase, please contact me first before leaving feedback. Otherwise, please leave positive feedback and I will do the same for you. Thank you!
