Beads are very heavy and we try to be fair with shipping costs.
USBEADERY.COM, LLCdoes not use shipping and handling to add to our bottom line.
If our Shopping Cart gives a high shipping rate, we will ship the best rate possible and only charge the actual cost. (We will adjust the shipping on our end.)
Shipping will be based on the actual carrier charge. The shipping method is selected at the time of order and the cost for shipping will be added to the order.
We have found the United States Postal Service to be fairly reliable, economical, and cost efficient. Through the United States Postal Service, we offer First Class shipping for orders less than 13 ounces and Priority Shipping for all others. Shipping and delivery to most locations is 2 to 5 days Monday through Friday. Orders received before 7am are shipped that day. Orders placed on Friday after 7am Eastern Time, on Saturday, or Sunday will ship on Monday.
Heavier parcels will ship FedEx. Smaller heavier parcels will ship USPS using the Small Rate Box ($4.95 + insurance), Regular Rate Box ($10.70 + insurance), or Large Flat Rate Box ($14.50 + insurance).
Shipping to CANADA and Internationally is somewhat higher. Please email us for more accurate international rates.
