How to Shop
All stamp catalogue numbers are Scott numbers.
This website does not yet have the ability to de-list (take off) items as they sell. When we receive an order, we immediately go to the site and de-list the item. The only time this will cause a problem is when items are purchased from overseas and it is night time here (i.e., we're sleeping). We try not to work weekends, but take care of business first thing Monday morning. When there are multiple orders for one item, first order received will get the item; duplicate orders will be refunded.
So why do we stay with this website when it does not automatically de-list a sale? Because we can build the website ourselves, we like the way it works, we can do just about anything we want/need to do for our website, and we are comfortable with the company. We have tried other websites, and have gotten frustrated with them as we were severely limited in what we could do, and it was difficult to build our webpage. Not to mention, their cost to maintain our site was higher. So, please, loads of patience is asked of you.
How to Pay
All payments are made through PayPal. If you do not have a PayPal account, it is very easy to create an account using your bank account or credit card.
Shipping within the U.S. is First Class, Priority Mail Envelope Flat Rate, or Priority Mail Medium Box Flat Rate, whichever is best for shipping your order.
Shipping to countries outside the U.S. will be Registered Priority or First Class Air Mail (where the rates have gone way up over the past couple of years). If you do not wish the receipt to be shipped with your order, please let us know.
If actual shipping costs are significantly lower than what is charged on your billing, we will refund the unused portion. Shipping is automatically added to each order. If we can combine orders to save on shipping, we will refund the additional shipping.
Etc.
Besides buying stamps from our site, you will also learn about Peafowl, Camelidae and other topics of interest to us. Keep checking our site every couple weeks as we add new items.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
Happy shopping!
