Let's get this out of the way first: We
do
not ship overseas
We strive to offer you quick and reliable shipping
methods
while trying our best to keep costs down.
HOWEVER, some
responsibility lies on you to choose
the correct shipping method for your products.
Here's a list - well, a table, really - of our currently
available shipping methods and examples of the products
that are good
and bad ideas for each method.

The small print:
As with everything pertaining to this online
store,
I have the final say in how stuff is shipped.
If the chosen method of shipping can't work, I have reserved the right
to change said shipping method to one that will work.
Yes, even if it costs you more. Of course I'll notify you before
I go charging you more.
