SHIPPING DISCLOSURE I have tried my best to keep shipping cost low but therates just keep getting higher and higher. I ship using the U. S Postal Serviceas I find them the safest shipper. The shipping cost to the Midwest and farwest is so much more than what I have to deal with here in the Northeast. Ihave struggled with doing this as I didn't want to lose my bidders/buyers westof me but it just adds up to too much money in the long run. Please understand I do this very reluctantly, as such, I am adding 20% to anything being shipped to zip codes that begin withthe number 5, 6 or 7 and 33% to anythingbeing shipped to zip codes 8 and 9. Example $85.00 regular shipping cost to zipcode that begin with 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 is just that $85.00. Zip codes that begin with 5, 6 or 7 would be $85.00times 20% which equals $17.00 which is added to the $85.00 and becomes $102.00. Zip codes that begin with 8 or 9 would be $85.00times 33% which is $28.05 which then becomes $113.05. Your invoice will beadjusted to your zip code. I double box the shade and ship the base separately.Please consider this when you are bidding and thanks for understanding.
