I will put the item in a vinyl bag, then in an envelope, and ship it via regular mail. It will be packed tightly. If you prefer shipping in a cardboard box or other method, please comment, and I will adjust the price to include the additional shipping cost. If you are purchasing this item with other items, please comment before purchasing. In that case, I will offer a small discount. Discounts are not available for single item purchases. Also, please refrain from purchasing if you are a proxy buyer for overseas customers.
