But we have almost no case which the item lost. EMS  EMS is indemnified to breakage or loss. And it has tracking. EMS arrives in 1 week-3 weeks.   EMS is the safest and early shipping method. I most recommend EMS for you. SEA MAIL  SEA MAIL is also indemnified. And it has tracking.   But, 1 month to 2 months and a maximum of 3 months are required by arrival.   It is the method of requiring very much days. YU-PACK  YU-PACK uses only the inside of Japan.  Sometimes, in SAL, we receive mail that an item does not arrive. But we have almost no case which the item lost.  ABOUT COMBINATION OF ITEMS   I can combine two or more items for saving of shipping cost. But SAL cannot be used if it exceeds 2Kg.   In that case, since it is EMS or sea mail, cost cannot necessarily be saved.   And, form cannot combine a greatly different item. In that case, it is SAL separately or 1EMS or 1SEA MAIL.   And a combinable period is from your 1st purchase to one week.   If you desire combination of some items, please do not pay separately by PayPal. Because an invoice is uncombinable.   And when a PayPal address differs from the shipping address, please be sure to let me know in payment mail of PayPal. ABOUT PAYMENT  I recommend PAYPAL. But supposing you do not have a PAYPAL account,  I can also accept an international postal money order. ABOUT US  We are the antique shop KOFUDO which have a store in Tottori Prefecture in Japan. We are mainly dealing with tea-things and a hanging scroll. Sometimes, Japanese sword relations, Buddhist instruments, etc. We are deficient in English capability and have difference in the culture of your country.  Therefore, I may sometimes make you trouble.
