Due to changes at US Customs and Border Protection and Canada Post, we are no longer able to mail small parts orders as letter mail. As a result we have to implement a minimum order policy effective immediately.
Orders will now have to be at least $40.00 before shipping costs are added.
I very much regret having to do this, but the government agencies leave me with no option.
