PLEASE NOTE: SHIPPING IS NOT CHEAP. YOU are still committed to paying your invoice, even if you don't like the shipping cost. If you refuse to pay, you will be booted from future bidding on Hi-Bid auctions.
WE WRAP OUR ITEMS TO GET TO YOU WITHOUT DAMAGE.
WE DO NOT GIVE SHIPPING QUOTES!! TOO MUCH TIME INVOLVED. THE MORE IT WEIGHS, THE BIGGER IT IS and the further away you are from Hastings Nebraska, THE MORE IT WILL COST. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING IS ABOUT 3 TIMES THE COST OF USA SHIPPING. WE CANNOT CONTROL SHIPPING COSTS. THE POST OFFICE KEEPS RAISING THEIR PRICES.
Check each items description. Some items (Large or very fragile) will say NO SHIPPING AVAILABLE. All other items will ship.
WE ARE NOT OUT TO MAKE A PROFIT ON SHIPPING.
THERE IS A $2.00 to $5.00 HANDLING FEE ADDED TO EACH PACKAGE right off the start!! Our shipping is done IN HOUSE. PLEASE NOTE: we charge actual shipping charges plus there will be an ADDITIONAL CHARGE for bubble wrap, packing peanuts, tape, etc. There will also be a charge of $1.00 to $20.00 per box that I have to purchase to make your items fit in a box that I do not have available. Insurance is automatically added to any and all packages valued over $100.00 for a Priority Mail Box. FIRST CLASS PACKAGES valued over $20.00 at a cost of $3.50 per $50.00 in any TYPE OF PACKAGING. You will be also be charged for signature confirmation ($3.80) for any package valued over $250.00 or packages with coins valued over $30.00. WE WILL NOT ALLOW OTHER CARRIERS TO PICK UP ITEMS THAT WE HAVE TO WRAP. YOU CAN HOWEVER, PAY ANOTHER CARRIER TO PICK UP, WRAP AND SHIP FOR YOU (only after the items are paid for). Text message with your name prior to another carrier picking up your items. The shipper will need to follow the PICK UP schedule and bring boxes and paper for pick up. WE DO NOT ALLOW BUYERS TO SEND US A PREPAID SHIPPING LABEL. PLEASE DO NOT BOTHER ASKING. I CHECK THE RATES ON EACH PACKAGE AND USE THE CHEAPEST SHIPPING RATE via USPS or UPS. WE WILL MAKE THE DECISION ON WHICH METHOD IS CHEAPER FOR THE BUYER.
If you prefer 3rd party shipping let us know prior to paying the invoice. We will charge $10.00 to $20.00 to drop it off and you will be contacted by the 3rd party shipper.
Our shipping statement reads that you will receive your tracking number within 7 to 10 business days (usually sooner). We SHIP Monday through Friday no holidays. You can count the days as follows: From the day that payment is received.
Assuming the auction is on Wednesday and you pay the day after the auction that would mean it would ship out within 2 weeks. Count the days as follows:Thursday(1)Friday(2)-Monday(3)-Tuesday(4)Wednesday(5)Thursday(6)Friday)(7)Monday(8)Tuesday(9) and Wednesday(10). Speed is all based on the number of people on the auction that need shipping. Items are wrapped based in order of payment received.
It also states that you will receive the tracking number from Stamps.com when the shipping label is created. It will say that Judy Smith has sent you a package. Your package will ship the day after you receive this message.
Please do not call until you have waited the full 10 business days and have checked your email (including your spam folder for the tracking number).
