Shipping
: All
DOMESTIC
shipping charges
INCLUDE
insurance. We have enjoyed shipping our items all over the world and are happy to offer most of our items to international buyers. Yet insuring International parcels is very expensive so PLEASE NOTE; we do
NOT
insure International orders unless winning buyer specifically requests this and we are able to provide an insurance quote. We do not falsify information on the Customs Form, such as a price other than what the actual purchase price is, so please do not request us to do so. We ship several times a week and send payment acknowledgments and shipping confirmations. Your prompt payment will assure a very quick turn-around time.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If our shipping charge is much more than the actual shipping cost, we will refund the excess so what
YOU
pay for shipping/insurance is very close to, if not exactly, the
ACTUAL
shipping costs! This is especially important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are only estimates
.
Why this jar's label was reproduced and what is significant about it is that it seems that
most all of the milk glass Owl Drug jars, with embossed owls on the base, have come out of the Los Angeles area
. To date and with few exceptions, there are no documented findings of them anywhere but in the vicinity of old Los Angeles. So here is a milk glass Owl Drug jar with a label that seems to support this idea as it lists only the Los Angeles stores on the label, its distribution was limited to that area,
check it out!
