International shipments will be sent via the United States Postal Service (USPS).

Important Notice to International Buyers: Import duties, taxes and other charges by your country's authorities are not included in the item price or shipping charges. Check with your local customs office to determine what these additional costs may be.

Once the parcel arrives in your country, neither Mesquite Booksellers nor the United States Postal Service is responsible for a slow processing and delivery. Shipping time estimates concern the speed with which the parcel arrives to your country, not how quickly it arrives at your door.
