Shipping
Shipping charges are based on the weight of your order, and we charge only actual postage -- no handling fees. When you submit your order, we'll weigh the stamps and quote you a shipping price. At this time, you are welcome to proceed with the order, change it, or cancel it altogether. While this system requires an extra step in placing an order, the purpose is to keep shipping costs as inexpensive as possible for you!Shipping is calculated at United States Postal Service first class rates. If your order weighs over 13 oz., first class becomes priority mail, and the rates change accordingly. If you have a small order but would still like it sent priority mail, we can do that - just let us know!
We do not automatically insure packages, but can do so upon request, for an extra fee. Insurance for an order up to $50.00 in value will cost an additional $1.70, or $2.15 for an order between $50.01 - $100.00. Please note that orders requiring insurance may delay shipping by a day or two. Otherwise, we pride ourselves on getting orders in the mail within 24 hrs. of payment of in-stock items, unless you've been otherwise notified.

United States Customers:
If your UNMOUNTED stamp order includes regularly priced stamps totaling at least $45.00, we'll ship for free anywhere in the U.S.! It's okay if your order also includes sale items, as long as you still have $45.00 worth of non-sale items.
If your MOUNTED stamp order includes regularly priced stamps totaling at least $75.00, we'll ship for free anywhere in the U.S.! Again, you may include sale items, as long as you still have $75.00 worth of non-sale items.
International Customers:
Because we value our international customers the same as domestic customers, we want to reward your patronage as well! If you are an international customer and your order fits the criteria above for free shipping in the U.S., your shipping fee will be discounted in the amount at which shipping would have cost a U.S. customer. For example, if the same package would have cost a U.S. customer $2.50 in shipping, then your qualified order would receive a discount of $2.50 (USD) to ship.
APO Customers:
We are happy to ship your orders under the same terms as any other U.S. addressee!
