##NEWS##

#June 2: All orders shipped to U.K., Sweden and Australia must be shipped with high stealth (HS) packaging at extra cost. Please make sure to choose a HS shipping option when ordering or I will have to cancel your order. If you do not see HS option for the item you would like to order then please contact me to see if I can add one.

#May 31: There will be no shipping today. All pending orders will ship on Monday.

#May 27: Reduced shipping costs and simplified shipping options.

Just to clarify FE (finalize early) requirements due to a lot of questions from buyers:

FE is only required for untracked (SP/Lettermail) orders over $1000 and tracked orders (XP/IP) over $4000. If multiple items are purchased at the same time I will consider the total value of all items purchased. The total value held in escrow cannot exceed those values.

Insurance provided for tracked orders only:
Canada/USA: 75% of first $4000 (=Max $3000).
Other countries: 25% of first $4000 (=Max $1000).

Untracked orders are at buyers risk only (no insurance).

#DISCLAIMER: The products sold are illegal in most countries around the world. Please beware for the risks involved. I highly recommend reading up on shipping and security in the community forums . Also keep in mind that different delivery options have different risks. Some people would say the signing on delivery is a very bad idea however this is the only option that will allow me to provide tracking info and reliable delivery to some countries. You must weigh the legal and financial risks yourself prior to ordering and decide on the best option for you!

##COMMUNICATION##

#Keep in mind that I spend hours a day answering messages which takes away from the time I can spend preparing orders and expanding business. Please respect the following points when sending messages:

*Keep your Qs clear and concise.
*Requests for discounts / samples / etc will be ignored.
*Qs about payment methods and acquiring bitcoins will be ignored (see community forums).
*Qs that have already been answered on my seller's page will be ignored.
*I will only answer requests for special orders or combined orders if they are worth my time ($1000+)
*If I have a back-log of orders I may go several days before answering your inquiries so please be patient. You can see in your outbox if your message has been read or not. If it's still "unread" then I just haven't gotten to it. If it's marked "read" and you still haven't received a response then you can assume that I'm not interested in your inquiry.

##PAYMENT##

*I ONLY accept orders placed through Silk Road.
*I do NOT accept other payment methods.
*I do NOT accept "out of escrow" or direct payment for transactions.
*Please do NOT send bitcoins directly to my username under any circumstances!
*All buyers are welcome regardless of your buyer stats!!
*I do require releasing funds prior to shipping (FE) in certain circumstances (see details below).

##REFUNDS/REPLACEMENTS##

*Refunds subject to adjustment due to changes in the bitcoin price (at my discretion).
*Once tracking says the item was delivered or a delivery attempt was made I will no longer be responsible for the package.
*Insurance void if you refuse signature or are unable to accept delivery/pickup from p.o.!

###SHIPPING### (please read carefully before ordering):

##ADDRESS/CHECKOUT INFO:
*Be aware that if you provide a fake name you may not be able to receive the package.
*If no one is home to accept delivery then you may have to pick up the item at the P.O.
*You may use any name you wish but I won't be responsible if you're unable to retrieve the package.
*Please indicate any special requests along with your address during checkout (even if we messaged before hand).

##PROCESSING: Up to 4 days before your order is shipped!

##TRACKING:
*On request only.
