New Shipping Prices for 2011

As a business owner who ships my products internationally, I'm always trying to find the best possible shipping price for my customers. In conclusion, I have found that Canada Post is the cheapest as far as price goes, but the price to pay for not the best service is probably not too worth it!

I shipped many of my items as a small light packet which was great because shipping is quite cheap, thus giving me the upper hand in making my items appealing to the shopper, but the problem I faced this December, was that some of my clients did not receive their packages. The down part of the small light packet is that there is no insurance and no tracking number. What it comes down to is this: you're better off charging more for your shipping and make sure you have both insurance and tracking to offer your clients because if you don't, you will get bit in the behind. It doesn't matter how honest you are, according to the client, you didn't deliver and you didn't keep your end of the bargain.

That being said, in an attempt to offer a more reliable shipping service, I have decided to up my shipping prices in order to offer both insurance and a tracking number with all of my shipments. When you think about it, there really is no other option. If you're going to want to offer the best service you can, this is the only way to go. There is no negotiation when it comes to keeping your good business name.

In conclusion: To all of my loyal customers and to my future customers, please shop with confidence because we will deliver; we guarantee it! We look forward to serving you better in the future.

Save up to 40 Percent with Sale of the Day Treasure Hunt in Each of my Categories

This is an exciting sale - Almost like a treasure hunt for sales.  That's right, in each one of my shop's categories I will have a "Sale of the Day" item with a special savings of up to 40% regular price.  This special sale of the day may also be combined with the extra savings of coupon code in the announcements of my store.  Plus you get to save shipping on most of my small items such as jewelry.  Remember, you need to search through the categories in order to find the special sale of the day in each category:  Women's jewellery; men's jewellery; Photography / Art; Vintage Home Decor; Glass n Recycled Bottles; Wind Chimes / Sun Catchers; Buttons.  To start you off, here is one of the items included in the "sale of the day":  beautiful 14k gold filled, wire wrapped cameo pendant.  It's quite intricate and has lots of gold filled wire on it.  Remember that gold-filled is not gold plate and is therefore very, very durable and will not wear off like gold plate usually does. Please read the information, about gold filled, below:

About 14K gold-filled:

Heat and pressure bonding a layer of gold to brass make 14K Gold Filled or “Rolled Gold”. Unlike Electroplated, Gold Filled will NOT wear off. Electroplating has only a microscopic layer of gold compared to that actual LAYER of gold in Gold Filled (100 times more gold in 14k gold-filled than electroplate and will not wear off).

Basically, gold-filled wire is a good metal for a good price. I know of old wire jewelry pieces in which several have actual dates on them. Gold-filled jewelry can really stand the test of time. In fact, I’m so sure of the product that I’m offering a Lifetime Warranty on tarnish (under normal use, of course), or I’ll replace your piece FREE.
