if you have any special request, please let me know BEFORE bidding
Also, please keep in mind that your item will be send from Europe and that you will need some patience to receive anything bigger than a tall envelope
As far as possible, and unless otherwise required by the buyer I try to ship in a flat envelope that usually travels between 2 and 3 week for a reasonable price and can be tracked and insured up to 150 Euro. Unfortunately the small priority parcel does not exist any more since the 1.1.2015. Everything that does not fit in a 3" thick envelope must now travel express faster, but possibly checked by customs
I'm always glad to combine shipping but please let me know in advance when you plan several purchases (to avoid unnecessary packing)
I charge no packing or handling fees and I use recycled wrappings and boxes as far as possible. Indicated shipping price is an estimation. If after packing there is a difference, I refund the exceeding amount, if I underestimated, the difference is for me. Except snow-storm or car-problem I send the day following payment.
Please be aware that whatever I'm listing, (mostly fabric, materials, costume pieces, lace and accessoires to repair) it can sometimes be in good condition but it is NEVER NEW from a shop shelf!!!! (so signs of a former life are often noticeable unless they are described clearly as VGC or AS NEW)
