Shipping costs quoted to international customers on the ABEBooks site are based on an assumed weight of 2.2 lb, or 1 kg, including packing. If your order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to request an extra shipping charge, as required. Conversely, if your item is small and actual shipping cost is significantly less than the ABEBooks quote we may refund part of the charged shipping cost accordingly.

- - - - DELIVERY TIMES: Orchid Press GUARANTEES prompt packing and shipment of your order following order processing. Most orders are dispatched by latest the day following your order acceptance and many will depart the very same day. Orchid Press CANNOT GUARANTEE the time it will take the postal system to transport your order to your destination address. Increasingly frequently, due to political and other global conditions, delivery times are stretching beyond the number of working day estimates for airmail service that the ABE site quotes. Our delivery completion record is near 100%--that is, we virtually NEVER lose a parcel that we have dispatched. We ask you to please be patient with the current postal situation which is beyond the influence or control of any of us.
