COMING SHIPPING COST INCREASE

I’m sorry to say that for the second year in a row the USPS is raising rates on First Class Package Rate with Tracking by 27.5% on January 17, 2016- Not that long ago in 2014 is was $1.93  then it increased to $2.04 in Jan 2015 and in Jan 2016 it’s skyrocketing to $2.60-$3.65 for a First Class Package based on weight – I’ve been charging $2.00 flat rate and just loosing a little on shipping, I’m sorry can not continue to do this as both shipping material and manufacturing material have increased by double digits as much as 35% in some cases in the past few months.

For now I am NOT going to raise the cost of the decals or other goods, but Shipping will be going to $2.75 domestic and there will be no change to International shipping ($3.00) as I can ship it First Class International Envelope which comes with limited tracking based on country.

I can ship these in the US via regular First Class envelope without tracking for $1.00 and once I figure out how to add this feature to shipping matrix I’ll offer it, but be advised that the buyer assumes the risk of delivery without tracking. I will not replace ordered that are lost in the mail without tracking.

TWO NEW BUSINESS SETS COOTER’S LIQUOR and WHISTLE STOP CAFE

I have two new sets out this week, Cooter’s Liquor which I made for a O Scale build article I’m writing that hopefully will appear in more of the train magazines (I’ll let you know) and the Whistle Stop Cafe which I also made for this build but opted not to use due to the size of the kit. Since this is a smaller kit in O Scale these should kit easily on a HO Scale kit too. Remember the GREEN GRID is 1/2″ so you can get a idea of the size of each image.
