Shipping and handling costs
All shipped orders include delivery confirmation so that all parties know when a package has arrived safely to its destination. NOTE: delivery confirmation is NOT insurance. We do not enforce insurance, but if you want us to insure your package, let us know when you send an email to order merchandise, and we will include the appropriate fee in your total. Please also be aware that we are NOT responsible for lost packages during shipping. Your safest bet is buying the optional insurance, its nominal, and the post office will reimburse you for lost packages. UPS offers insures their packages for free up to a certain amount, thereafter, you must purchase additional insurance.
