I am constantly amazed at the volume of our international sales. I think there are several reasons for this. The most important is the reasonable shipping fees from the USPS for items weighing less than four pounds. This class of service is called First Class Mail International and accounts for most of our international shipments. Another reason is that we use Endicia mail service to prepare our mailing labels and Endicia allows you to buy inexpensive insurance on this class of mail. I think these two business practices give the international customers confidence in buying from connectibles.
Another service we use is called My Store Maps. This great service keeps track of every shipment we make and plots the total numbers on a map of the world. So customers can see that we have made 147 shipments to England and 74 to Australia. In addition to these two countries, the citizens of Japan, Canada, Germany, France, and Italy are high volume buyers. Again, this gives buyers confidence that we know how to ship to their country.
