We do NOT send out individual emails CONFIRMING your order was received. Payments are all processed through Paypal Services so you will get an email from PAYPAL confirming payment was processed and order is sent to us. Unless we have questions, you will NOT receive anything from us until your order is ready and shipping out. More Ordering Info below.

SHIPPING POLICY

We process orders as quickly as possible, usually within 72 hours. Please allow a MINIMUM of 2 weeks for delivery before contacting us concerning your order.

We are a SMALL little leather business (not a big mail-order warehouse filled with crates of junk from China and Taiwan) and we have a vendor booth at many Renaissance Fairs (that we work OURSELVES to run) and other events throughout the West Coast and North Carolina.  We do sometimes get over-run with order requests which can easily put us behind two weeks or more. ASSUME your order will take about 3-4 weeks to ship.

Base shipping price is about $7.50 for USA domestic for 1st Class Mail.

If you are on a specific time restraint, CONTACT US BEFORE PLACING AN ORDER ONLINE and we will be happy to advise you of your available options, we may even be able to ship out right away.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING - Newest Shipping Rate Updates:
Though International Mail rates have gone up, we are now once again able to offer INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING.

THIS MEANS: Our little Paypal shopping cart is not very good at calculating shipping rates to overseas and Canada addresses. We have it set to hopefully charge the proper amount for most of our items. SOME ITEMS are much more bulky and take larger boxes which increase the shipping rates. If the shopping cart calculated shipping amount does not charge enough, we may have to send you a separate Paypal invoice (usually only $5-15) to make up the difference.

This will also apply if you feel the shopping cart is OVER-charging. If you feel the rates are too high, contact us and we can investigate for accuracy and let you know your options. Current rates are estimated as follows: Canada - starting at around $30.00US Most Other Countries - starting at around $40.00. We do not return international calls. Please Email Us if you want a reply.  Thank You.

All CANADIAN ORDERS
Canadian orders are sent USPS PRIORITY MAIL INTERNATIONAL for an average shipping/handling cost of $30.00 US or more. Feel free to contact us for international rate quotes.

All Over-seas orders are sent USPS PRIORITY MAIL INTERNATIONAL for an average shipping/handling cost of $49.00 US or more. Feel free to contact us for international rate quotes.

***NOTE - The shopping cart on this website CANNOT ALWAYS ACCURATELY CALCULATE OVERSEAS ORDERS! IF YOU ARE NOT IN THE USA, YOU WILL RECEIVE AN INVOICE FOR THE REMAINING SHIPPING OWED.  YOUR ORDER WILL NOT BE PROCESSED OR SHIPPED UNTIL THE SHIPPING AMOUNT IS PAID IN FULL. IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE AN INVOICE VIA EMAIL FROM PAYPAL WITHIN 48 HOURS OF PLACING YOUR ORDER, CLICK HERE TO EMAIL THE SALES DEPARTMENT.

DUE TO EXCESSIVE ABUSES OF THE PAYPAL CHARGEBACK SYSTEM BY DISHONEST (SLIMY, CHEATING, NO-GOOD...) PEOPLE, WE WILL ONLY SHIP USPS PRIORITY MAIL INTERNATIONAL UNLESS YOU MAKE PRIOR ARRANGEMENTS.

All Canadian and Over-seas orders must be paid with either Paypal or International Money Order only.

All USA Domestic shipments are sent USPS 3-5 Day 1st Class Mail unless otherwise requested (additional charges may apply for UPS or Fed-Ex type shipments).

We can rush/expedite for over-night shipping within the USA via USPS Express Mail or Fed-Ex but payment must be received before 12 Noon USA Pacific Time and is limited to stock on hand.

*Please Note - We will do our absolute best to fill rush orders, but we DO NOT GUARANTEE overnight delivery as past experiences have proven too many variables and we are not clairvoyant (I used to be, but I got behind in the payments.... it's a long story....).

JUST BECAUSE THE SHOPPING CART MAY OFFER AN EXPRESS/OVERNIGHT OPTION, DO NOT ASSUME IT WILL ARRIVE TOMORROW.
 If we're on a 3-day drive back from an event, we may not even GET your order for 4-5 days. (though we are now able to often process SOME orders from the road while in transit - ya, we're THAT FREAKIN' GOOD!!!)
Yes, this again falls under the "CALL US FIRST"

PLEASE understand that we greatly value our customers and we will do everything in our earth-moving psychic tele-kinetic super-powers to produce the highest quality of products and to get them to you when you need them.  We go the extra mile every day (and our sore muscles, bad backs, and arthritic hands prove it!) for our customers!

WASHINGTON STATE RESIDENTS

We are required by the State of WA to charge sales tax! Trust me, we'd rather not but it's the law -Sorry.
Since the shopping cart cannot calculate sales tax for Washington, after placing your order, you will receive an invoice for the sales tax due.

We Are In OREGON So please be aware that we are on Pacific Time when calling.

OUR "RENNIE DISCOUNT" POLICY

A large percentage of our product line is geared for the renaissance faire and re-enactor crowd. Yes, we love all of you, but - unless you're going to order 10 or more of something - PLEASE don't ask us for a "faire-goer's discount".

ALLERGY WARNING

We are owned by three cats (Pinky, Lucifur, and Bunny) that often occupy our shop to oversee our quality control department. If you have feline/cat allergies, we might not be your best choice for leather work. ~Sorry

WE are NOT your subs or bottoms. Rude, demanding, demeaning, or condescending phone calls or emails will NOT be tolerated from ANYONE.
