Yoko Trading's Shipping Information Page
SHIPPING INFO
- How? We have accounts with United Parcel Service (UPS), Federal Express (FEDEX), U.S. Postal Service Corporate Express and DHL. Our default carrier is UPS for continental USA and US Postal Service elsewhere. Details on other options follow.
Where? We ship worldwide: Anywhere that the U.S Postal Service serves, we ship to. To see the list of countries we have shipped to, click here. If you are our first customer from a country we've never shipped to in the past, we upgrade your shipment to US POSTAL EXPRESS (EMS) for your first purchase, and/or discount your purchase price.
- Shipping & Insurance costs: We no longer list a fee for Shipping/Insurance but incorporate this cost into each item's price to USA destinations.(to see details on the how's & why's of this policy you can click here). Shipping & Insurance for international customers is discounted: we will only charge you the difference between standard amount we pay to ship same item within USA, and actual cost.
- Continental USA Customers: We ship all items to USA customers in the lower 48 states via United Parcel Service (UPS) Ground (insured with tracking). This is included in our list price. If you need your item sooner, upgrades are possible with no surcharge; customer will pay only any additional actual cost involved.
Hawaii & Alaska & US Territories with US Zip Codes: We will only charge you the difference between standard amount we pay to ship same item to West Coast USA and actual cost.
Shipping Upgrades or Customer's Special Intructions: If you have special shipping instructions, or request a different carrier or a shipping upgrade, please note so in the bottom field of the order form on our secure site at the time of your order, or by emailing us at our email provided in your order confirmation; you can also use various contact methods via our contact page.
If you request special services or carrier other than United Parcel Service for Continental USA delivery we will only charge the difference between our usual cost and the actual cost as quoted to us by each carrier
- International buyers determine which grade of service. International buyers may request US Postal Service Air, Surface delivery or International USPS Express(EMS), UPS or DHL. We strongly recommend EMS to most overseas locations (for safety and speed), and depending on weight, EMS grade is often very close in price to Air Mail Parcel Post insured.(IMPORTANT: If you are outside USA, please go to international page before placing order -- some countries have high tariffs and VAT added for imports.)

PACKING:
Our packing is of Export Standard grade. We are veteran exporters/wholesalers so all items are properly packed. We do not charge extra for our handling or packaging.
AN IMPORTANT NOTE TO INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS:
( PLEASE READ OUR INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION PAGE FIRST)
Also, before you commit to buying anything please be sure you know the laws of your country concerning import tariffs, duties and restrictions. We cannot always be aware of each country's peculiar requirements. We strongly suggest that -- to avoid problems or unexpected expenses(duty etc)-- be sure that the item you are bidding on/buying will not be subject to any special import duties etc in the receiving country.
