ring sling with overlapping pleat shoulder

CheckoutRemaining points: 1, for in-stock fabric slings/accessories sewn and sent Thursday, August 21 (What are points? They do not apply to things you send to me -- check/money order payments, sling and wrap redos, or custom slings; or to the new STBS and vibrant collections.)

Next scheduled points renewal: August 21, 12 pm Eastern time, for slings sewn and sent on August 22. I have returned to a daily, rather than weekly, points allocation, but since my time is still limited by the fact that the kids are home all day, the number of points will be similarly limited.

USPS Insurance rates:

Priority Mail insurance rates:

$1.70 $0.01 to $50
$2.15 $50.01 to $100

These rates are valid for parcels within the US only!

If your package is being shipped outside the US, the rates differ and may not be available for all methods:

If you elect not to purchase insurance, I am not responsible if the package is not delivered, lost in the mail, or otherwise damaged. Please read more about shipping if you have any doubts! Also please keep in mind that insurance is NOT available on the Priority Mail International Flat Rate envelope. I'm sorry about that; I don't know why the USPS does it that way, but if you purchase insurance with PMI Flat Rate, it's just $1.75 extra that doesn't actually do anything. I can't add insurance to it.

If you have a wrap redo or hemming, you must select insurance on the wrap redo product page in the "Want USPS insurance?" pulldown. Because redos are technically "shipping exempt" according to my cart (that's how I make shipping included in the price), it will not add the price of insurance if you select it during checkout, and I don't pay for insurance out of my pocket -- I already make very little money on wrap redos. Make sure you've selected insurance in the pulldown, or it will not be included.
