    Shipping Policy...
    For this specific item, A
    U.S.
    winner pays .00 S&H.
    If multiple items are purchased and paid for simultaneously
    , the S&H will be calculated by using
    the highest item's S&H as the base cost
    , and then adding for each additional newspaper. The per-item additional cost for folders, portfolios, and presentation cases vary.
    All U.S. orders include in-house insurance at no additional cost to the buyer.
    All U.S. bound orders include delivery confirmation (if sent by USPS) and/or tracking (if sent by UPS).
    Expedited shipping is available for all orders upon request.
    Every effort is made to ship all orders within 24 business hours of receiving payment.
    Some small items may be shipped 1st Class.  We will still provide tracking and insure them at our expense.
    Combined Shipping Notice
    If the automated eBay checkout process does not properly combine shipping, we will refund overages automatically. If you prefer, contact us prior to payment to obtain a revised invoice.
