A NOTE TO MY INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS:
On January 27, 2013, the United States Postal Service raised their rates on international packages a stunning 55% - 112%, depending on weight and destination (Canada is especially hard-hit). I've always tried to keep my shipping rates extremely low, and fair. Given the astounding price increases I'm facing, it's going to take me some time to come up with a system by which customers can easily determine international shipping costs.
In the meantime, I'm asking that before placing an order you first email me a list of the items you want, to johnp_kingcat AT hotmail DOT com. I'll determine the shipping costs and get back to you. This will require a lot of extra time/work, so your patience in the matter is appreciated.
Many US mailorder businesses with large international customer bases are freaking out over this unexpected price increase. Right now, international orders account for about 50% of my business. I'll do my best to figure out what this all means, and how to move forward.
Thank you sincerely for your support!
John P.
PS: US customers do not need to email before ordering as your shipping rates have been unaffected.
