1stPlaceHobbies.com shipping policy

In order to keep our product prices as low as possible, we need to charge as close to actual shipping costs as we can.  To do this, we have come up with the following shipping cost policy:

Standard shipping per box- $8.95
All orders shipped to the Continental U.S. and under 10 lbs.
If the order package is under $100 in value and under 3lbs., the package will be shipped using US Mail.
If the order package is either over $100 in value or over 3lbs in weight, the package will be shipped
via UPS Ground service.
$4.95 per additional box will be charged.

Overweight 1 shipping - $12.95
The order package is over 10lbs. in weight.

Overweight 2 shipping - Actual shipping cost
The order package is over 20lbs. in weight you will be charged actual shipping charges.

Hawaii, Alaska, Military, and US Territories Standard - $10.95
The package will be shipped using US Priority Mail.

Hawaii, Alaska, Military, and US Territories Overweight 1 - $12.95
If your package is over 5lbs, the package will be shipped using US Priority Mail.

Hawaii, Alaska, Military, and US Territories Overweight 2 - Actual shipping cost
If your package is over 10lbs, the package will be shipped using US Priority Mail and charged actual shipping charges.

Express Shipping
At this time, we do not offer express shipping.

Non-US orders
All Non-US orders will now be shipped using UPS International Shipping. We will charge the actual shipping cost + 5%. We have had too many lost
packages using conventional mail so please do not ask for other shipping methods. Please be advised that this is very expensive and you can
get an estimate of shipping costs by visiting www.UPS.com. As an example of cost, a 4 pound package going to the United Kingdom will average $75.00 for shipping.

Shipping times
We try to process and ship all received orders within 1-3 business days. Orders received before 11:00am will usually ship the following business day.
