International Shipping Information
                       Shipping times listed reflect the time it takes for the package to travel
                       from our warehouse to your door. To determine how long it will take
                       for your package to arrive from the moment of your order, add the
                       availability time to the shipping time.

                           (Availability) + (Shipping Time) = Total Delivery Time

                       For example, an item marked as "usually shipped within 2 to 3 days"
                       and sent using WorldMail will usually leave our warehouse on the
                       2nd or 3rd business day and reach you on the 9th to 24th business
                       day.

                       A note about standard shipping: Packages sent via standard
                       shipping go by surface mail. Shipping time varies widely depending
                       on destination. In our experience, standard shipments take about 2
                       to 3 weeks to Canada, 6 weeks to the U.K., 6 to 8 weeks to Japan
                       and Australia, and 10 to 12 weeks to Brazil, to name a few.

                       What about customs?
                       We mark international packages as containing "Books--New" and
                       state the cost of the books on the customs documentation; if the
                       order is a gift, the package is marked "Gift," but the cost of the
                       books is still stated on the customs form. Currently, we are not able
                       to describe the contents in any other way.

                       Any customs or import duties are levied once the package reaches
                       your country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be
                       borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot
                       predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from
                       country to country; you may want to contact your local customs
                       office for further information.
