Heckathorn Yarn Bowls & International Shipping

​Currently, we only ship Bob's heirloom yarn bowls to locations in the USA. However, If you're visiting someone in the US or know someone traveling from the US to visit you in the future, you may easily purchase a Heckathorn Yarn Bowl on our Etsy site or in our shop here. 

Using the Bill To/Ship To fields on both sites, simply enter the US recipients name/address after confirming their CORRECT US shipping/delivery address into the provided shipping location at checkout. Then (using PayPal or one of our many alternative payment options), enter your billing address and payment info. Your Heckathorn Yarn Bowl will be shipped USPS for receipt at the US shipping location you provided within 3-5 days. 

Here are just three reasons we don't ship our yarn bowls Internationally:
1. Our yarn bowl boxes are very large and heavy, making shipping to foreign countries VERY expensive unlike smaller items purchased internationally at affordable rates. For example, our smallest yarn bowl (size Large), costs more to ship to most international locations than the yarn bowl itself.

2. Due to the high shipping costs, we are unable to offer free returns/replacements in the unlikely event a  yarn bowl gets damaged in shipping (or doesn't arrive at your destination). These circumstances are rare, but it has happened a couple times over the years. If a yarn bowl is damaged in transit, it would incur a large financial loss for circumstances beyond our control after crediting you for the damaged item. Bob's Artisan Yarn Bowls are priced far below actual value and we won't risk financial loss or damage to our our reputation over disputes that are hard to resolve outside the US.

3. Past attempts to bill international buyers directly (because our website does not calculate international shipping charges with accuracy) has brought losses on US $ conversion and a tremendous amount of time researching the lowest cost options for shipping to our customers outside the US.
We hope the future holds more affordable international shipping options, until then, come visit the US and bring a Heckathorn Yarn Bowl home with you; or ask a US family member or friend to bring one next time they come visit. Happy yarning!
