Quote Request Sheet - use this form to get a detailed, no obligation quote for any item(s). I
can ship items together and reduce shipping costs.
List the item numbers you are interested in or describe a custom pen you would like me to make for
you.  I will respond with cost quote including shipping. If everything is to your liking, reply to the
e-mail. I can e-mail you a PayPal invoice that you can pay securely at PayPal.com. I can also accept
cheques and money orders, but there are delays for them to clear.
Once I receive payment, I will package and ship your items within two business days. For custom
orders, I will give you an timing estimate too. I can complete simple custom pens orders in a week.
I also have a general
price list to give you an idea of the costs.
All woodturnings are hand made and uniquely numbered. All orders include an information slip on
the wood type and wood pen care information.  All pens (except the long desk pens) come  in a case
identified by number, wood, and ink refill type.

Pen Cases:
I also have upgraded plastic/felt gift boxes available. For additional cost each. You can see
them
here, I normal ship twist pens and pencils with case A or a similar clear plastic case.
Case B is the upgraded case. The wood case (C) is a special order item.
Not all pens will fit into all pen cases. Desk pens are too long for any of my cases, most
fountain pens are too thick for the wood cases.
All fountain or rollerball pens come standard with the nicer plastic/felt or Leatherette case.
If you want a better box quoted, list that in the comments section.

PayPal  Information:
You can get info on PayPal at their site: www.PayPal.com
PayPal does not charge fees to the buyer, they make their money from the seller (me).
You might be charged a fee for the transfer from your bank depending on what
payment method you choose and the account type you have at your bank.
When you make a payment I receive a notice of payment from PayPal, then I will
arrange shipment of your product, usually within two days. I do not see any of your
credit card or payment information, I just see that a payment is received.
Shipping:
I ship by Canada Post parcel service, which is the only reasonable cost service I have
found so far. The shipping costs I charge are set to a break-even cost level, meaning, I
do not charge a handling fee and the cost I charge you is the cost I pay to have the item
shipped. I include shipping insurance when practical. Typical shipping costs are
C$10-14 to Canada and US$11-15 to the USA. These costs are per shipment, not per
item.  I offer free shipping on orders over $125.
  I offer free pick up (no shipping charges) if you pick-up your order in Aurora, Ontario
(my home) or Mississauga (my day job). I accept COD for most pick-up orders.
Sales Tax Note: I am in Ontario,
Canada and am obliged to collect
8% Ontario sales tax (RST) for
Ontario shipments.
I have a small business and have
chosen under the tax rules to not
charge or recover the Federal
GST tax. My accountant tells me
this is legal and recommended.
This is called the small supplier
GST exemption.
 This means I must charge 8%
sales tax for Ontario orders and I
do not charge any sales tax for
exports from Ontario. You might
be required to pay local sales tax
on your package, check your local
sales tax rules.
The new Ontario HST process is
still TBD, but does not begin until
spring of 2010.

Payment options:
I do require payment before I ship. I can accept a personal cheque, but we need to allow time for
the cheque to clear before I ship. I can accept credit card or debit payments through PayPal. I
e-mail you an invoice and it links you into a payment page within PayPal.
