BUYING SUGGESTION:Look at all my other Ebay ads. If you buy anythingelse together with either of these two exotic IIeswitches, I will ship everything COMBINED andthe shipping cost paid on these switches will beREFUNDED. The switches weigh next to nothing;the shipping cost is only charged if the switchesare shipped solely by themselves. SHIPPING COSTShipping cost is $3.75 for addresseswithin the USA, or $19.00 for addresses inforeign countries. This high shipping cost isONLY for the first keyswitch; if moreswitches are purchased at the same time,the further shipping charge is minimal. LOOK ALSO AT MY OTHER ADS;If you buy any larger items from me,then most or all of the shipping coston keyswitches can be refunded soonafter the combined shipment has beenmailed. Any shipping overpayment above$0.20 will be refunded. Stephen Buggie, Ph.D.Professor Emeritus of PsychologyUniv. of New Mexico, Gallup
