    PAYMENT:

    SHIPPING NOTES:
    Please see detailed shipping rates in the eBay calculator below.

    If ordering multiple items please request an invoice. I always pull all issues ordered and charge whatever the USPS quote for multiple item orders.

    All single magazine orders ship out flat protected by a magazine hobby bag (usually BCW brand) and sandwiched between cardboard to protect from bends and bumps.

    I use the USPS for shipping.

    U.S. orders are shipped within two business days of cleared payment by First Class, Media, or Priority Mail. Will combine Media or Priority on orders of multiple issues of this title.

    Outside the U.S., Priority Mail International orders ship within one business day of cleared payment. First Class International ships out 1-2 times per week.

    I'm known for my expert packing and shipping, please see my feedback for tons of customer satisfaction!
