"Hello, thank you for getting in touch! Shipping is that amount because the Post Office said so. Unfortunately I have no control over the USPS rates lol. I encourage you to do your own research and look up the rates at https://postcalc.usps.com/, using 5lbs and a box size of 24x18x9. You'll see the rates delivering to your zip code, as it varies for each distance. I'm in 80526, so please input the info and see what numbers you come up with! Thanks again for checking in, and hopefully you'll see I'm not just pulling numbers out of thin air. :) "
All items come from a smoke-free home. I am a collector as well so I understand the elevated level of how we treat our treasures! I will pack this up safe and sound for you and get it shipped out asap.
Please contact me with any questions, thanks again. Take care of yourself and each other!
