INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING

International shipping fees vary depending on the country. Shipping costs can be estimated during the check out process before submitting payment. Orders shipped outside of the US may be subject to import taxes, customs duties, and fees that are determined once the shipment reaches the destination country. The recipient may be subject to these fees and may be required to pay these fees in order to have the shipment release. We unfortunately have no control over these charges and can't predict what they might be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country. If you have any questions, please contact your local customs office for more information. If additional customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. **Please note that some international credit cards (such as some cards from the United Kingdom) are not set up to comply with AVS (Address Verification Services). If you own a credit card issued outside of the United States, your transactions may be declined. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

When shipping outside of Virginia, no sales tax will be charged on items sold due to the fact that we are physically located in Virginia.  For out-of-state residents shopping in our stores, be sure to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to save both money and the hassle of lugging around your new purchases.  This is especially beneficial for customers who will be flying home and don’t want to worry about tipping the scale at the airport with your goods. Sales tax will be charged according to state law for items purchased in the store as well as those items shipped to residents of Virginia.
