We’ve been relying on people overseas doing contributions on the honor system to cover extra postage, but, whoa, all of a sudden we got hit by people doing purchases from overseas with no postage. Well, I don’t blame them, and we will honor the offering, (it’s costing us more to ship than we’ll make on the transaction) but—we have to manage this fast, since we started to do dead tree books now and again. So we have to put a postage charge on.<\/p>\n
IF you want to buy multiple dead tree books, for one thing, do it now, because we don’t have many of them, and for another thing—if you’re getting multiple purchases, we can sometimes cut you a deal on shipping, by working it out by hand how to cram it into one box. In any situation, wherever you live if what you’re ordering is small, or flat, and you can contact us in advance of purchase, we can see if we can cram whatever it is into one of those larger flat-rate boxes and save you a bit of change. One 45.00 box is better than four 13.95 boxes to the opposite side of the planet. And we’re very willing to work with you. Just don’t buy it until you write to us because our software is very limited, and we can work with you easily BEFORE a purchase and tell you how to finesse it.<\/p>\n
Bookplate sales are modest but ongoing: if I make a mistake or they don’t arrive in good condition don’t hesitate to tell me. It’s one thing to tell the software what to ask you: it’s another to read the input in the right way.<\/p>\n
And note: bookplates ship\u00a0 in an ordinary first class envelope, and there’s no extra postage for overseas: I can at least give my overseas readers that much of a break!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
