Frequently Asked Questions
Shopping Information
Do You Ship Internationally?
We do ship internationally, but highly recommend that all international orders be shipped via Fedex. For orders over $1500 USD, FedEx international shipping (priority method with tracking) is included, for all other orders, inquire for a quote. We can use USPS priority, but discourage use of USPS first class mail for international orders at this time, unless the customer is willing to accept the sometimes 1-2 month or more shipping period for this method.
What Shipping Methods Are Available?
For domestic (USA) orders, all packages with an order value of less than $1000 USD will be sent via United States Postal Service (USPS) priority mail, a safe and cost-effective method. For orders over $1000 USD, FedEx shipping within the USA is included. We can also ship via UPS or DHL, but prefer to use FedEx or the United States Postal Service.
Do you accept payment methods other than PayPal?
You are welcome to mail a personal check (please include telephone number and/or driver’s license number on the check if we have not done business before). Bank wires are also welcome. However, the PayPal platform built in to our order checkout does NOT require a paypal account to use, you can pay using a debit or credit card at no charge.
How Long Will It Take To Get My Package?
Typically, USPS priority mail is delivered to most USA destinations in 2-5 days. USPS priority mail international takes 6-14 days to most countries, depending on distance and customs restrictions. FedEx priority international is typically less than one week from door-to-door.
What if I don’t see what I’m looking for?
We have thousands of specimens in stock and are buying new collections and new finds all the time. If you don’t see what you are looking for, please reach out to Phil by email or phone and he will be happy to try and help you find the next special piece for your collection.
Do you accept time payments (layaway)?
For specimens over $500 USD, we do offer payment plans, which have no interest and flexible payment schedules to fit your time and budget. Specimens will be mailed once payment is received in full, and will be securely stored in your shipping package at our office until that time.
