📦 How Shipping Works:
Shipping is calculated by at checkout based on the buyer’s zip code and the package size/weight. USPS and UPS change their rates a few times a year, so costs may vary. I never charge extra or inflate shipping — buyers pay exactly what shows.
If you prefer expedited shipping or a different carrier, please message me before purchasing so I can revise the listing.
