Sorry, but the only way to protect my more expensive shipments is this way..
This unfortunate action by the USPS has significantly increased the postage charges for foreign locations. I am sorry for this USPS decision that will now affect not only me but also so many of my foreign friends who have made purchases from me in the past by raising the cost of international business dealings. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
I will always do my best to save you money on postage while I also have to watch out for my shipments.
