GUARANTEE:
(1.) I never sell stolen merchandise. I personally select every item I sell, in the country where it was made. I try to be fair to people, both when buying and when selling any item.
(2.) I take care with my pictures, and with my words, to give as much relevant information as possible. If you feel the item you receive does not measure up to what the words say, or what the pictures show, you can return it for a full refund.
I like Paypal because it is very fast, and doesn't cost the customer anything extra. However Money Orders are great too - just be sure to get an International one, because myhouse imports is in Canada.

Canada is considered as 'International,' even though I live in Canada, because this is a U.S. site. Postage rates within Canada can vary quite a bit depending on geography: I'm on the west coast. I try to set a fair average price, so that the transaction can be completed right away. But if you prefer you can e-mail me first. Give me your Postal Code and I can check the shipping cost for you. - Tony
European/Asian/other countries - Please do not select the rate for Canada. You have only one choice, International Air Insured, which is the best way to send up to 2 kg. I do not trust International Surface because I have had some trouble with it. Air is expensive, but gets to anywhere in two weeks. HAWAII parcels seems to get there at the same rate as the mainland, if they are under 1 kg, but you definitely do not want surface shipping.
I try to use a consistent rating vocabulary throughout my listings, so you can get an idea of where an item fits, compared to others in its class:
1. Cheap Market Grade - things that are made to sell fast and to sell cheap.
2. Average Market Grade - the most common type of this item.
3. Better than Average Market Grade - Better craftsmanship, and/or better materials.
4. Superior - Better than most others that you see for sale, in materials and in skill level.
5. Highest Quality - the best of its class in the general market.
Collector's Pieces and Antiques and Rare pieces are a whole other ball-game, and the prices are usually in another dimension.
