International orders

Yes, we ship worldwide

Stamps are an international hobby. We’re happy to ship to most countries — we just handle the rates a little differently than domestic orders.

Why we quote by email

International rates depend too much on destination, declared value, insurance level, and carrier service to compute reliably with a one-size-fits-all calculator. Rather than overcharge or under-insure, we quote each international order personally — usually within 24 hours.

How to request a quote

• Browse the marketplace and add the items you want to your cart, then proceed to checkout.
• Choose your country in the shipping section. The form will switch to an “email for international quote” mode that pre-fills a message with your cart contents and ship-to country.
• Send the email. We’ll reply with a quote that includes shipping, insurance options, and the all-in price.
• If you accept, we’ll send a payment link and ship as soon as the payment clears.

Or skip the cart entirely and just write to info@bigskystamps.comwith what you’re looking for and your country.

Customs, duties, and taxes

Buyers are responsible for any customs duties, import taxes, or fees levied by their country. We declare full value honestly on the customs form — under-declaring (or marking as “gift”) is something we don’t do.

Delivery times

Vary by destination and service level. For most countries, 7–21 business days is typical with the standard insured service. Express options exist on request and we’ll quote those alongside standard.

Lost or delayed packages

International tracking varies by destination — some countries scan handoff well, others go quiet for stretches. If your package is significantly past its window, write in and we’ll open an inquiry with the carrier together.

Returns from outside the US

The same returns policyapplies. Return shipping for changed-mind orders is the buyer’s responsibility, including any return customs costs.
