POSTAGE RATES FOR FOREIGN CUSTOMERS: As postage must generally be calculated by weight, there is no automatic way to add postage your order. There are two general ways to proceed with adding the postage total to your order:

1. You can submit the order from the shopping cart off the website, and request an e-mail quote for the postage amount for the order. We will
try to send the quote back to you as soon as possible for your approval. This will normally take 24 - 48 hours.

2. You can simply request that we calculate the appropriate postage for your order by weight, and apply it to your merchandise amount. We will do our best to calculate the shipping and handling charge. Please note that sometimes the postage we apply is slightly over the actual rate, as the cost of our boxes, etc. has become significant. This will save you time getting your order shipped, and most of our customers have been very happy with this method.

Foreign Shipping:

1. By insured Surface Post. There is a 5 pound MINIMUM for this. Good for heavy parcels such as books, but it is quite slow. Average delivery time is 3-6 weeks.

2. By insured Airpost. Good for insured deliveries of medium to large parcels requiring quick delivery time, and minimal chance for loss or breakage, especially for valuable or rare items.

3. By non-insured Letter/Package Post. Good for quick delivery of small to medium size packages of relatively low-cost items; there is a considerable cost savings over insured Airpost. Average cost around $3.00 for small envelope to $15.00 for packages. Customer must take the risk for loss or damage, but our loss rates for these shipments is extremely low. We have only lost 2-3 packages in 8 years.

Please note that there is NO Insurance available for any shipments to the following countries:
Bolivia, Brazil Surface shipping (Airpost insurance OK), Ecuador, Guatemala, El Salvador, Malta, Mexico, Panama, Uruguay and Venezuela.
PLEASE NOTE THAT VERY LARGE, HEAVY OR OVERSIZE PACKAGES MAY INCUR HIGHER SHIPPING CHARGES; WE WILL CHARGE ACCORDINGLY AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO OUR SHIPPING/MATERIALS COST.
