    The Red Tape:
    US Shipping:
    Saddles  will ship via either USPS or FedEx
    Shipping is
    calculated
    unless otherwise stated. This means that the price is determined by the Post Office based on package size, weight, and destination. The shipping fees you see are the actual cost to your location. Since shipping prices for an item vary greatly depending on the destination, we offer two to three shipping choices for most items that are 3 lbs or over. Please check the “Shipping details” link for all choices offered.
    We do combine shipping on items purchased the same day. eBay
    will
    not
    automatically combine charges on items from different listings. Sorry, but shipping cannot be combined on two saddles because they will not fit in a box that meets shipping size regulations.
    We ship every day that the Post Office is open – usually 6 days per week. Any items paid for by 10 P.M. EST are shipped the next business day.
    International Shipping:
    All international items are shipped as quickly as possible. One to two business days after payment is received is typical.
    We do ship worldwide. If you are from somewhere other than Canada, please contact me for shipping prices since they vary greatly from county
    to country. Canadian prices are advertised.
    We
    will not
    mark foreign purchases as “Gift.” This is illegal. If this is a problem, please do not bid.
