Policy

 

I use three flat rates for shipping: $5, $10 and $20 to cover international and domestic shipping. Calculated shipping website features at checkout are unfortunately far too expensive for this small business at this time.

 
  • $5 is for stamps and small items that fit inside a 6x8” envelope. If the order is large enough (e.g. two postcard sets) to require a more expensive shipping it’s simply viewed as a bulk discount for the customer. Average expense for me is $4.6-$5.15 for domestic shipping but can go up to $27.15-$31 for international orders, excluding the expenses of packaging materials.

  • $10 is for posters and comics. International shipping costs on average $12.5-$14 (sometimes as high as $24) at the post office, while domestic shipping costs between $5.5-$7.5. This excludes the expenses of the packaging materials, which cost between $0.81-$3.26 each. This was therefore as low as I could possibly go with the pricing.

  • $20 is to cover anything that requires more extensive weight or packaging.

 

Expedited shipping or online tracking is too expensive for this small business, but I can arrange custom shipping options at hi at solaeva.com for an additional fee if you would like a different option for your order.

Once the package is shipped it becomes the responsibility of the postal service. However, I sincerely care about a positive customer experience so if there is any trouble please let me know at hi at solaeva.com.
