Micki's Wild Wednesday... ...its Wednesday all week Updated September 4, 2008

Postage is $2.50 for the first three buttons, including delivery confirmation; if you order more, there may or may not be an additional charge, depending on weight. I normally charge insurance for orders over $25.00; I will be glad to insure, but won't insist on it anymore. Insurance for up to $50.00 is $1.70; more is higher. If you elect not to insure, the risk is yours.

I do not accept payment from banks not in the U.S.A. and I do not ship internationally. Sorry. Email me directly if you want to place an order or you have questions: click here.

Buttons are not presented to scale--please pay careful attention to sizes. Unless otherwise noted, buttons are in good condition.

MICROFIBER POLISHING PADS I use these terrific pads to polish metal buttons in particular, but have used them to polish bakelite and also some types of celluloid. (Do be careful--don't rub too hard.) Package of 10, $2.95 Package of 50, $13.80 If you place a button order, postage is free for one small package Otherwise, shipping on one or two small packages, or one large package, is $2.25. More than one large package, postage increases. Reuse both sides of the pad often--you'll know when its not working and needs to be replaced.

Buttons are all in good condition unless otherwise stated. They aren't to scale--please pay close attention to sizes so that there are no surprises when the button reaches you. If the button is plastic, I'm not totally sure of the material, but if I have a guess I've offered it. I do not hot test the buttons in my sales inventory. Let me know if you have questions or if you fancy any of these.
