Postage Restriction Check:
Please take a look at the links above to see if your purchase can be sent to you based on the restrictions imposed by Hong Kong Post. Due to the present pandemic, airmail is not available or, in some cases, the borders are completely closed to any kind of mailing services so nothing can be sent to you at all. It would help if you took a look before bidding.
Posting and Packaging:
In general,
Registered Airmail
will be used. But, again, this is determined by Hong Kong Post Office restrictions (see hyperlinks above). Depending on the size and cost of the item,
Surface Mail
may be used because it is the only option available.
Should you wish to use a more expensive (and faster) alternative please let me know. Addition postage charge may incur.
I will pack your item as securely as possible and, upon payment, a series of pictures showing your purchase and the packaging will be sent to you in due course.
While it is incredibly unlikely, should the package be damaged whilst in transit, please make the claim through the mail service provider and will assist you in any way I can. I will keep the receipt of the purchase of such service until the item has safely arrived and that you are happy with the item received.
If you have any questions, please ask.
I am NOT responsible for any import tax incurred.
I offer combined shipping
:
In general, 50% of the postage fee of the cheapest item will be charged on top of the most expensive one: if the postage cost for Item #1 is U and Item #2 is US, the total postage for both items will be US$ 12.50. But since every item is different, the final total will need to be calculated at the end of the auctions based on the packaging used.
Therefore, instead of you paying the full amount and then I refund you the postage difference afterwards please wait for a single invoice with the correct postage charge.
