Shipping:
All items ship from zip 61761 U.S.A.  While most of my listings feature 1 business day turn time, I'll always try to make it same-day shipping!  Monday-Friday orders placed by 10 a.m. CST will usually make it to the Post Office same day.  Monday-Friday orders placed after 10 a.m. CST may not get to the PO until the next day.  My ultimate goal is to have all orders to the post office by the next business day.  Saturday/Sunday orders will be posted the following Monday.  Postal holidays excluded.  While I will get your item to the courier quickly, please be patient as we all know the USPS, FedEx and UPS are all experiencing delays these days!
Packing:
I pack very carefully to avoid shipping damage, using the best box to protect your item from damage, while minimizing your shipping cost.  I love to use bubble wrap and so far have not had a single item damaged in shipping.  Check out my feedback; there are many mentioning shipping speed and good packaging.  Will always try to use recycled options whenever available but I do maintain an inventory of fresh, recyclable boxes so I'm not wasting your and my time digging around the house for an old box to ship your valuable item!
Feedback:
Statistically, only about 30% of ebay buyers ever bother to leave sellers feedback!
As a seller, I don't mess around.  If you pay promptly after purchasing, I'll leave you positive feedback immediately upon packing and shipping.  All I ask is that you please take the time to return the favor once you've received your item and are satisfied with it  In the very rare circumstance where something goes wrong with your purchase, I just ask that you please give me an opportunity to make you happy and reach out to me with the issue first.  Thank you!
