You can help to ensure prompt delivery of your order by verifying the address and obtaining the Zip+4 code for shipments to your US address using the US Postal Office National Address Server.
when possible, please ship to a commercial (work) address attended during the day. If you provide a residential address, be aware that the recipient may need to pick up the package at the nearest post office or UPS facility if no one is home.

Once received your order, which doesn’t include shipping cost, WE WILL SEND YOU A PAYMENT REQEUST EMAIL VIA PAYPAL FOR THE SHIPPING COST which is based on the weight of the order. After payment we will ship the order ASAP. We ship by US postal service only.
US Postal Service (USPS): First Class Mail International (under 4 LBs), Priority Mail International (under 20 LBs) or Express Mail International. The last one is faster but more expansive ( Use USPS rate calculator to estimate cost and time.). By First Class and Priority, packages are delivered via the local postal system in the destination country. No tracking number is provided and is not guaranteed. Express International Mail offers a tracking number you may use to track via www.usps.com. However, the information offered is very limited.
IMPORT TAXES: There are no US taxes; however, you will be responsible for any additional customs handling fees, duties and/or taxes. Because each country is different, and these fees change often, we do not know these fees. Your local post ⁄ customs office can give you this information.
If any international order is refused upon delivery for any reason, all customs & duty charges will be billed to you by River2sea. Once a package enters your country these charges are not reversible whether the package is delivered to you or not. Orders may be returned after receipt if there are any problems. Please be aware of all related charges when ordering.
If your order is returned to us as undeliverable, and you still request us to resend the order to you, we will have to charge a second shipping amount to again ship your order.
