I ship globally. International packages include insurance, some countries are excluded. Insurance claims may take up to 60 days to process. I do not include insurance for shipping in the US, but if you would like insurance, just email and I will add it to your invoice. I look and find the cheapest and best way for you to get you your item. There are no handling charges for US shipping. I will gladly combine shipping to save you money. Please let me know if you are buying more than one item and I will send you a revised invoice. I ship within 1 business day. Holidays will cause delays. I do my very best to ship your item with love and care. Please review your shipping choices. If you have shipping requests, please let me know and I will GLADLY accomodate them.
