Please just use clear packing tape for your outgoing packages.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fragile packages<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you want \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Special Handling for your Fragile package,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d the package must be identified with a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Special Handling \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Fragile\u00e2\u20ac\u009d sticker that we have at mail services. These stickers are provided by the post office, and each sticker costs $10.35, in addition to the shipping costs of the package. For U.S. Mail packages, writing \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Fragile\u00e2\u20ac\u009d on the package does no good. The carriers do not handle these packages separately.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shipping original art<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you want special handling of your \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcOriginal Art Work\u00e2\u20ac\u009d you must purchase a $10.35 Fragile sticker at mail services for shipping by U.S. Mail. You still need your package packed securely to prevent damage.
