SkyFall Meteorites will make every effort to ship purchased items within 2 complete business days of receipt of full payment, unless otherwise agreed upon and communicated with the Buyer. Buyer should be aware that shipping costs can represent a significant percentage of their total purchase and that shipping carriers have continued to increase their prices at a rapid pace outside of our control.  SkyFall Meteorites does not make profits from shipping and does not charge any additional costs or handling fees unless non-standard shipping arrangements are required by the Buyer.

Responsibilities & Liabilities

Buyer is responsible for all costs associated with shipping. Regarding international shipping, Buyer is responsible for any added fees, duties or taxes imposed on the shipment.

Buyer is responsible for providing accurate shipping information in English, and in some cases may be required to provide an address in the language of the destination country. Any errors in the shipping information including email addresses and phone numbers may delay shipment and even lead to loss of the shipment. In such cases, the Buyer is solely responsible for delays and losses.

SkyFall Meteorites will be held harmless and accept no liability, financial or otherwise, and Buyer agrees to not demand or expect a refund from SkyFall Meteorites either directly or through an intermediary such as, but not limited to, a credit card company, payment processor or financial institution, in the event of:

• Loss due to incorrect delivery information provided by the Buyer, or for any fees or charges associated with the loss.
• Buyer fails to collect the package from their country’s customs office, or a PO Box or any physical address identified as the final delivery destination.
• Shipping carrier (such as FedEx, UPS or USPS), through its own tracking software, confirms that package has been delivered to the address provided, and Buyer claims package was stolen or accepted by a non-authorized person.
• Package has been delivered to an institution’s or business’ mail center or central package processing center, and package fails to be delivered to the correct office or institutional address by that organization’s own mail delivery service.

Domestic & International Shipments

Domestic Shipments

Domestic shipments valued under $5000 will use Buyer’s preferred method based on their selection during Checkout. Shipments will be insured for full value and use signature confirmation.

Domestic shipments valued over $5000 will use USPS Registered Mail. Registered Mail normally takes up to 14 days to arrive due to more secure handling by the US Postal Service. Shipments will be insured for full value and include signature confirmation.

International Shipments Valued Under $2500

International shipments valued under $2500 will use Buyer’s preferred method based on their selection during Checkout. Shipments will be insured and declared for full value.

USPS limits the maximum insured value for certain countries to $200 or $600. If a Buyer chooses USPS and the item’s value exceeds that maximum insured value, then the Buyer will be contacted to change the shipping method. Any added costs due to changes will be the sole responsibility of the Buyer.

International Shipments Valued Above $2500

No item will be shipped internationally whose declared or insured value exceeds $2500. Buyer may contact SkyFall Meteorites to make alternative shipping arrangements outside the stated Shipping Policy. However, Buyer then accepts all responsibility for loss, damage and liability, and agrees to hold harmless SkyFall Meteorites and its owners for any variances outside stated Shipping Policy.
