Free Shipping on Spinning Wheels or Looms as indicated that ship direct from distributor/manufacturer by UPS ground (cont. U.S.), Order Separately by Manufacturer.  Pay by Visa, Master Card, Check or Money order.   Choose the Free Ship Option when checking out.  Select: Pickup at Seller's Location to get you through the shopping cart.  Unless you leave a message that you actually want to pick up I will assume you want the wheel or loom shipped directly to you for Free.  Will e-mail shipping details when equipment is on its way to you. 

Ship Calculation for orders placed online through the catalog...

 

Calculation is done by total weight for a single shipment.   Giving you the option of different shipping methods.  

Shipments over $50 are shipped insured and this is included in the online ship quote.*  Orders under $50 and you want insurance added, indicate this when ordering.

*If you don't want me to ship your order insured, make payment by money order and leave message when ordering to recalculate your total without the insurance.

 

Package handling & Delivery Confirmation, included in ship quote:  First Class ($2.13)  All other shipments ( $1.13). 

 

Signature Confirmation:  Alternate Shipping Address or if you request to add at ordering.    USPS $2.10,   UPS $4.25  (these amounts are not reflected in ship quote when ordering, but will be added before your order is shipped)

 

Multiple shipments:  Shipping charges will be calculated at cost when shipped. 

 

Will use Flat Rate Priority Box or Priority envelope whenever possible.  Ideal for small heavy items, books, wool wash, etc. that will fit in flat rate box.  Or shipments of many pattern sheets, magazines, etc.    Select USPS shipper when checking out.  Pay through Elizabeth's merchant account: Visa or Master Card, will adjust rate at ship time.   No adjustment can be made for payment through Paypal.

 

Closeout items are subject to full shipping charges.   If your order of Closeout items is over $100 discount does not apply.  If you are paying through Paypal, please ask to bill you,  rather than underpaying on shipping costs. 

 

If you encounter a ship charge that seems out of line, it is possible there is a coding error on something ordered.  Leave a message when ordering if you think the ship rate is excessive or send e-mail with details.

Special Order Yarn or Video that may use a different shopping cart.  Shipping is calculated by order amount.  This amount is an estimate for ground shipping - actual ship rate for your package will be applied when shipped.    Orders over $100 will be either shipped by UPS or if by U.S. Post, signature confirmation will be added.  Your order will be shipped by least expensive method.  If you have preference of shipper, indicate this when ordering in message area.   Most items can be shipped direct from supplier/distributor,  there is a charge for this service.  If you wish order expedited, leave instructions when ordering.  

MAIL THEFT?  If you are having problems with mail theft,  insurance only covers packages while in transit.  I have had a few customers try to get out of paying for their order for packages that have been delivered and there is proof with delivery confirmation.    Once delivered to your mail box or shipment address and your order is lost or stolen Elizabeth's Fiber & Yarn is no longer responsible for your order.   Rather than add signature confirmation to every shipment -  It is your responsibility to ask for signature confirmation when ordering, get a post office box or have your order delivered to a secure location, example where you work or a friend that is home during the day.  Postal signature confirmation will be added:  US post $2.10, by UPS $4.25.

Error Message?  Occasionally there are problems getting through the cart.  If this happens to you  send your order and credit card details through my secure message area Link to: Secure Message Board  Indicate what you wish to order, Cardholder name, cardholder's address, card number, exp. date, and CVC  I will assume you want shipping by least expensive unless you indicate preference when ordering.  I will put the order through for you, expect order confirmation by e-mail by  next business day.

Orders of books only can ship USPS book rate mail (continental U.S. only).  Book rate mail is less expensive than shipping by parcel post or UPS.   Orders of Magazines only can ship by printed matter.  Leave a message when ordering if you want Book Rate or Printed Matter Mail. 

 

Alternate address. With payment with credit/debit card we can only ship to the cardholder.  Shipping to cardholder other than at the cardholders billing address?  Ships with signature Confirmation at cost of service.  $2.10 will be added to your total if shipped by Post, $4.25 if shipped by UPS. 

Special Order Equipment (spinning wheels, looms) paid with credit/debit card can only ship to the cardholders billing address.  Alternate address make payment with check or money order.
