Shipping

All products in this store are shipped from Peru in South America. There are two possible shipping methods:

• NOT REGISTERED “NORMAL” MAIL BY SERPOST (the PERUVIAN MAIL SERVICE) (but every package above 2 kg is registered and insured.)*

• REGISTERED, INSURED PRIORITY MAIL through SERPOST.

Mailing packages from Cuzco, Peru takes about two to four weeks to travel to the US, Europe and Australia. Priority mail is more expensive and sometimes faster, but always registered and insured.

The AN•Mercado computes the shipping total by the combined weight of all the products in your shopping cart during checkout. 

For example: The cost for shipping one set of the Cards of AN AMUA (weight  about 920 g – less than 2 pounds), including packaging (still less than 1 kg) – are around 48 USD to the US, 50 USD to Europe and 44 USD to Asia/Australia. These are the actual costs we have to pay at the post office for shipping.

You can often save a lot on the shipping cost, if you buy several products together!

The weight thresholds for “reaching the next higher shipping cost” are [cost examples for USA]:

from weight (in g/kg) from weight (in ounces/pounds) price to US in USD
21g 0.74 ounces 7 USD
101g 3.56 ounces 16 USD
251g 0.55 pounds 28 USD
501g 1.1 pounds 50 USD
1.001kg 2.21 pounds 62 USD
…. 2.001kg 4.42 pounds 90 USD
2.501kg 5.53 pounds 92 USD

Examples

• Many Lliclias have a weight of 300-400g, so you can add one or more Sancarpas or a Sun-Moon pendant without additional shipping costs.

• When you buy a set of Cards of AN, you can always add one or two sancarpas without crossing the 1kg mark.

• You could add to a poncho of 1.3 kg one or two pendants without exceeding the next interval at 1.5 kg.

Please check the shipping costs during checkout.

On occasion, we have visitors who are willing to bring a set of Cards of AN AMUA to your country or region and mail them from there. If you want to choose this option, please contact us BEFORE your purchase.

Please be aware of (possible) customs fees in your country

When receiving goods from foreign countries many countries charge you a customs fee. We do not have the means to pay for these fees – and we cannot even easily find out how much these fees would be.

It is your responsibility to be aware of additional costs through customs fees in your country.

*Note: The exclusion of postal packages up to 2 kg from being registered and insured from January 2026 on was made by the Universal Postal Union (UPU) and is obligatory for all member Postal Services worldwide. [First Additional Protocol to the Universal Postal Convention pdf]
