IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UNITED STATES MAIL SERVICE AND UNITED PARCEL SERVICE.

Please read this important information with regard to shipments going outside the United States of America.

United Parcel Service (UPS) Express is the only method available that offers insurance, tracking, and responsiveness to issues. The shipping rates includes brokerage but does not include any taxes or duties your country may sometimes impose based on the value you assess on the shipment. Please note, those taxes and duties are imposed by your country not ours and there is nothing we can do about them.

US Mail. Shipments going through the US mail system can be made using surface mail or International First Class. The United States Postal Service (USPS) does not have any reliable method of insuring or tracking packages, and, for the most part, is NOT responsive to shipping problems. In general, most packages arrive at their destinations without incident. Shipping rates are sometimes cheaper than UPS and duties and taxes often are not assessed. PLEASE NOTE: there is a trade-off for these lower rates, and that is accountability.

For an additional $5.00 per parcel we will insure your US Postal Service (USPS) packages.

NOTE: 3 months from date of shipment must pass before we can initiate a claim for any lost packages sent via United States Postal Service (USPS).

Packages sent through the US Postal Service (USPS) without additional insurance are at the buyer's risk for loss or damage.

Canada/Mexico. Most shipments can be made using US Airmail. These usually arrive in a timely manner without incident. However, the same rules above apply here as well.

Please choose your shipping method accordingly.

Below are some examples of shipping costs for various weights and how using CD sleeves can save on shipping costs. These are just examples.
