International buyers: When entering your order through our website, the order process system will automatically add a mailing fee of $7.95 per order (which will be applied toward your International shipping cost). We will invoice you through PayPal for the additional shipping cost, and if applicable, handling/processing cost, insurance cost, “payment service provider” fees (ex. PayPal) and any other applicable fees/cost that we incur while processing the order. We establish the actual mailing cost, online, through “USPS on line postage calculator”. The calculator is normally accurate, however, there are times when the “on line calculator” and the physical “USPS office” do not agree. We have to pay the physical USPS prices. When this occurs we will need to invoice you for the additional cost. If you would like an estimate (online postal calculator) of previously noted cost (shipping cost) for your order, please request prior to submitting your order. Email us at: sales@seaportmodelworks.com with the items you are ordering plus the shipping address including postal code.

We use only USPS services to initiate an international mailing.
International orders where merchandise value is $200.00 or under, we will mail USPS First Class International, unless the buyer requests an upgrade and is prepared to pay the additional cost.
International orders where merchandise value is $200.01 and greater, we will ship Priority USPS or better (better only if customer requires it).

International orders valued under $25.00 will be charged a processing fee up to $10.00 in addition to other previously noted fees/costs. The charge of the processing fee and Merchandise value together will not exceed $25.00.

On International orders that have a merchandise value of $200.01 or more, additional insurance will be required.
We will invoice the buyer through PayPal for the insurance cost in the same invoice we send that covers additional shipping cost, and if applicable, handling/processing cost, “payment service provider” fees (ex. PayPal) and any other applicable fees/cost that we incur while processing the order.
