Attention All Overseas Customers

Dear Overseas Customers:

We have had many requests for a more economical way to ship products overseas. After research and due preparation and planning, PWRS is happy to announce that we are now prepared to use the United States Postal Service for shipments to overseas customers.

This service will apply to all customers who: 1. do not specifically request an alternative means of shipping, or 2. who are presently being routinely shipped high-value packages.

In addition, each customer is responsible for deciding whether or not this shipping option is best for him with regard to customs issues. That is a separate matter entirely.

If you have any questions whether this service is for you or whether you are included, be sure to contact the following persons:

In Europe: Christine at [email protected]

In Australia or New Zealand: Peter at [email protected]

Below, please see the basic rules for this new shipping option and also the basic cost for the freight itself (not including insurance, handling, etc.):

United States Postal Service

SHIPPING TO OVERSEAS CUSTOMERS

1. Maximum retail value per package is $500.00

2. Each Customer must be prepared to pay the actual cost of freight, insurance, and a shipping and handling charge.

3. Should we be required to take the package to the post office in person, an additional $2.00 per package will be charged.

4. A heavier weight (rounded up to the next pound) than actual will be used in order to ensure that packages have sufficient postage and are not returned to PWRS.

5. Shipping costs reflect the price increases effective May 12, 2008

6. Flat Rate packages will only be used if and when there is sufficient weight and/or value to warrant the cost.
