WABI-SABI Wooden & Brass Skull Beads Sales Thread

Thank you for the compliment!

Customs are generally $60. It depends on difficulty and material. PM me what you have in mind and we'll talk it through.

I'll try to make time to build something this week. Do you have a material preference?

No payment yet. Let me build it and then we'll deal with that. Do you want a lanyard hole in it anywhere?

Quick update for International buyers. I will no longer use Express Mail International (first post updated). It is nothing but trouble. I will only use Registered/ Priority or First Class. The amount of hassle, paperwork, and complications is not worth it.

I've mailed several international packages using First Class and have not had a single issue. Items arrived safely and within reasonable shipping times.

I've mailed two Express International packages due to large/expensive orders. Express offers insurance that the other methods do not. However the first package got stuck in customs for 2 weeks and the second while actually has shown no shipping issues, I was double charged for.

Sorry for any difficulty this may generate.

Your country is the main issue. UK Customs is amazingly difficult with Express Mail. For example I shipped you two beads with no issue at all. The express mail package I sent to the UK was held for two weeks with no update to tracking. Then I was just double charged for a package sent recently using express mail to the UK. There is a mystery package in CA and the real package in NY. Too much room for error with the complicated customs form and data entry.

I just wanted to clarify for those not familiar with International Shipping. The least expensive option is First Class International. This is what I typically use. The next inexpensive option is Registered. This adds a little more security since there is a chain of custody transfer involved. The are some combination version in between then there is Express International. This is the most expensive and least often used. It does require a large customs form and it offers insurance. Express International is the one I will no longer offer. Normal First Class is still available and I'll step up to registered if the buyer prefers (and pays for it ).

As long as I have stock I can duplicate them. If you want one, I'll get one made up. It will take a day or so. I should have stock.

Payment will come after to see the final piece. If you like it, we'll handle payment. I'll PM you when it's done.
