If you ever receive a stamp you are not happy with, please message me first so we can attempt to settle the issue without getting Listia involved. Most of the time, you will get a replacement without question as I strive to make my buyers happy. I get really upset when there is a dispute filed and I don't know why or haven't been given a chance to resolve the issue first. So, please message me first.
Shipping is FREE within the United States. Please note, I need your verified address as soon as possible as I don't pull the winning auctions until I have it and if it goes too long, I will lose track of the auction. Please take a moment and do this for me. Thank you.
NOTE: It has come to my attention that I need to put the following foreign shipping rates and information on my listings: Shipping is $1.50 per stamp UNLESS you purchase at least 5 auctions/listings. At that time, shipping will be FREE. Any over 5 will so be shipped in the same package for FREE.
I strongly request that you ask any questions and understand the answer before you place any bids as I don't want any confusion about the shipping and how to make shipping FREE.
