FAQ & Site Info

Yes! I will ship to most countries. If your country is not listed, please contact me for the postage cost. I make accurate customs declarations, including a packing slip of the listing. See FAQ on Shipping for breakdown of rates. Buyer is responsible for all shipment-related fees, including, but not limited to, postage, customs, tariffs, etc. Items returned for non-payment of duties, undeliverable, refused, or rejection by your country's custom will be reimbursed--less shipping fees and a 15% restocking fee.

While the beads are sold "as is", I try to describe them as accurately as possible. Each listing will be described so that you know what you are getting. Please read through the entire listing, but don't hesitate to "Ask Seller a Question" if you have any questions not covered. Some beads are vintage; that implies "used" (though they may, in fact, be unused), but are clearly marked in the listing. All the other beads are new and unused, although they may not be in their original packages or those packages may not be in mint condition. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, preferably before your purchase. If you don't like the item you have purchased, you may return it, unused by you, in the same condition it was shipped within 7 days of your having received it (per USPS delivery confirmation). Shipping fees are non-refundable. Return items via USPS with delivery confirmation.

Most domestic items are shipped USPS first class parcel with delivery confirmation. The best value is to buy multiple items to save on shipping. I do charge a small amount for the packaging materials and handling, but it'll still be a savings for you. For example, one item may weigh 0.3 oz. You still have to pay the 1oz shipping price, but if you add items up to 1oz, there's no increase in shipping. Put together a shopping cart and look at the shipping fee. Domestic packages over 8 ounces will be shipped in a USPS Priority Mail® Flat Rate Box. International packages are typically shipped first class. If you want an upgrade (or are in a hurry), let me know and I'll email you the additional cost.
