Shipping costs and problems
In
the past few years, many difficult obstacles have been placed on
exporters who ship internationally.
For awhile, I despaired of shipping to my many European customers, as just not being worth all the trouble, time, and expense.
However, I have found that if I
use DHL, especially for shipments to the U.K. or the EU, that the
shipments go through smoothly. You can now again order directly from my website.
However, shipping can not be calculated automatically.
After you
order, I need an e-mail with your FULL mailing address and telephone
number. I can then get a true estimate from DHL and send you an email
invoice for the shipping amount.
Note, for countries like Switzerland, Australia
and Canada, I can still use the regular USPS first class international
mail.

Import Duties and Taxes
Please
be aware that your shipment will, in most cases, be subject to import
duties. These are taxes charged TO YOU by your government, and have nothing to
do with me. I DO NOT receive any funds in this process.
Failure to pay the import duties will result in the package being destroyed and no refund of your payment.
Please
be aware what the import duties are for your country. Since I ship to
52 different countries, I cannot track this for you.
