Due to the hours of my job I can usually only mail packages out on Saturdays. I send out Priority Mail which takes 2 - 7 days to arrive in the USA and Air Mail International which takes 5 - 30 days depending on where you live in the world. I do not "sell" postage or packaging and charge less than the actual cost of mailing. I package items securely and wrap well. Most pages come in an Archival Sleeve with Acid Free Backing Board at no extra charge. If you are dissatisfied with an item. Let me know and I will do my best to make it right. Many Thanks to all of my 1,000's of past customers around the World. Enjoy Your Hobby Everyone and Have Fun Collecting!
