Please Note: Delivery time with USPS Priority International is always longer than the 6-10 business days quoted by the courier. If you choose USPS Priority Shipping.....expect shipping times of10-21 days or longerto some countries. Tracking number will be provided for shipping however, tracking with USPS Priority is done as a courtesy and does not update consistently on the USPS site. USPS Express Mail is much quickerwith tracking updates regularly. Delivery time to most countries is about 5-8 business days or longer to some countries....depending on customs.

Please do not hold me accountable for shipping transit times. All I can do as a seller is answer your emails quickly and ship your item in a timely manner. Once your item ships it is out of my hands. I have no control over service transit timesor how long an item spends in customs before being cleared.So when choosing Priority expect delivery to take longer than 6-10 business days quoted by the courier.
