If you live outside of US, check your post office for package held pending customs fees!

I have recently become aware that a particular country in Europe has not been actively informing package recipients that there is customs fee due and silently waits for the recipients to show up to pay for the fees or return the package without informing any party involved! So if you live outside of US, please actively track your packages. You receive the tracking information if you order on my square or tindie online stores. If after a week or so you have not seen any updates, check your local post office with the tracking number! “Not moving” or “stuck in Chicago” means the package may have entered your country but USPS has not received any updates yet. If you don’t check, your package may get returned. I can only ship the package out to you again if you pay for shipping and I receive your actual package to ship back. I can’t ship out replacements on the promise that a “stuck” package will return to me.

In case you wonder why the background was so beige, it’s the case of a computer from the same era as the stamps 😀

If you know who the lady was, let me know. I have a lot of stamps with her on it. A queen? A celebrity? What was the black rubber post stamp mark saying below “POST CODE”?
