Sheldon Museum Shipping Information

All merchandise is shipped via the United States Postal Service. Fedex, UPS and other mail carriers are NOT AVAILABLE in our tiny town. Shipping is automatically calculated according to the volume of items you purchase. Most items will be sent in a USPS priority flat rate envelope or flat rate box depending on the size, fragility and number of items involved. Shipping rates start at $5.15. Multiple items (up to 10 pins or zipper pulls or 2-4 small books) can be mailed for this start-out price. In most cases your merchandise should arrive within 3-10 business days, however, because of our isolated location (Haines, Alaska), even priority mail can move slow, especially in the winter when adverse weather can seriously delay mail. Please give at least 2-3 weeks for your package to arrive.

Purchasing Something Tiny?
If you wish to purchase something very small and inexpensive (such as one pin) and don't mind how long it will take to get to you, we can mail it in a small envelope for just a few dollars. Please email the Museum Store and we can email you a Paypal money request for the total purchase price.

Destinations
We ship to all states in the United States. We can also ship to Canada and Internationally, however, you MUST email the Museum Store with a list of the merchandise you are interested in and a request for a shipping quote. We will be happy to send you an invoice for your total purchase and shipping via Paypal.

Insurance
We strongly encourage you to purchase insurance on all shipments, but especially those over $50.00. The Sheldon Museum is not responsible for lost or damaged shipments. Insurance is already included on domestic purchases of $300.01 and over. Again, please give an absolute minimum of two weeks for your package to arrive (the Post Office will accept claims up to 180 days from the shipping date). If you have a claim you wish to file, keep ALL of the damaged goods (which the Post Office may wish to inspect) and email the Sheldon Museum. We will send you your proof of insurance.
