SHIPPING NOTES:
FAST shipping is always a TOP PRIORITY!  Upon receiving your cleared payment purchases are carefully packaged up and shipped out within 24-48 hours.  If for some reason there is a delay, I will email you.  Our PO is closed on the weekends, so items paid for on Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday are usually shipped out the following Monday (unless I happen to catch our mail lady beforehand).
On MOST items I am also happy to combine shipping (also
noted under the shipping&payments tab)
