ATTENTION: Shipping: Is by the piece, with addtional items less than the first. When ordering a number of items we will REFUND shipping charges that worked out much higher than the actual cost to ship. We do package well so that does cost slightly more but on previous orders, with multiple items, we have been able to refund $30 on a $65 shipping charge. It depends on the weight of the dishes and where you are located. We try to be as fair as possible.
