Shipping information
WE COMBINE SHIPPING COSTS, simply request a combined invoice before checkout. We will combine items up to 7 days apart.
USA: Small crystals will be sent first class unless otherwise noted in the listing. We prefer Priority mail, on large items we will ship parcel post if this service is offered on the item page. We package the crystals very well, one customer once said his box could have fallen out of the airplane and arrived intact! Wait till you see Frank's signature 'mummy wrap' technique!
INTERNATIONAL: Outside of the USA we use first class for some items under 3 pounds and will state on the listing if this is an option. All other crystals will be shipped via priority mail international and if you need an express delivery, feel free to ask for the quicker service and we will adjust your invoice.
Return policy
Please contact us immediately if you have a concern. We will work it out for you. We never have returns, everyone seems to adore their crystals and we can't complain! :)
