Shipping: I ship 5-6 days a week. Sometimes, depending on my schedule, I do not ship on Saturdays. As a rule, everything is shipped within 24 hours of the receipt of payment.
I use the post office for most of my shipping. If you are purchasing multiple items, I will look at the various rates offered by the USPS and FedEx Ground shipping for heavier items. I do not use UPS because it is not convenient in my area of the country. The eBay standard invoice does not have a field for FedEx, so it will say UPS, but it's not UPS. FedEx requires a street address and phone number for shipping.
Packing: I have a great record for getting things through the system safely. If you frequently receive items that get damaged in the mail, let me know. I will add even more fluff to your stuff - some carriers in some areas are rougher, I guess. If you are requesting an item be double boxed, let me know before you pay or respond to the invoice. Double boxing adds weight to the parcel and your shipping cost is going to be higher.
Always, always, always, if you have questions - please ask. I am happy to answer. I appreciate your business.
