We do our shipping in-house and are more than happy to work with you. Our auctions are usually on Saturdays, winning online bids are usually processed the Monday-Tuesday following an auction.
Our process goes like this:
1. We gather your order together and make sure all your lots are present and in the as-advertised condition.
2. Next we pack your order and calculate shipping.
3. Finally we charge your card and give your boxes to the shipper. UPS is used most of the time, sometimes USPS, especially for the smaller items.

Shipping costs are calculated by:
- Cost charged by shipper (UPS, USPS, ect).
- $4 per box, for most boxes.

What you can do to expedite your order:
1. Check your contact information. Can we reach you quickly with your phone number? Do you regularly check your email?
