INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS ONLY:
The sold price is the only amount that will appear on the customs form as the item value. Any import duties or taxes you may have to pay on your end are your responsibility and not additional shipping.

Payment should be received within three days of purchase.
WE HAVE BEEN HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME WITH SHIPPING CALCULATIONS AND SERVICE CHOICES MATCHING WHAT WE CAN THEN PRINT FROM EBAY.  WE HAVE HAD NO LUCK ADDRESSING THESE ISSUES WITH EBAY OR FINDING A WAY TO AVOID THEM.  WHEN YOU SEE THE INITIAL SHIPPING CHOICE KEEP IN MIND THAT IS NOT THE ONLY CHOICE AND THAT THE LEAST EXPENSIVE CHOICE IS NOT ALWAYS SHOWN FIRST.  IF ONCE AN ITEM IS PURCHASED AND THERE IS A COMPARABLE BUT LESS EXPENSIVE SHIPPING OPTION (FLAT RATE, REGIONAL RATE, SWITCH BETWEEN FED EX AND USPS) WE WILL DO SO IN ORDER TO SAVE YOU ON SHIPPING COSTS.  WE WILL THEN SEND A NEW INVOICE SO YOU CAN SEE ALL AVAILABLE OPTIONS.  IF YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID WE WILL REFUND THE DIFFERENCE.
