Waltons Shipping Policy

[akdave]

Thanks to Austin, Jonathon and all the staff a Waltons, I just placed the first order shipped to Alaska USPS and shure that there will be many more to come in the future.

akdave Glad that it worked out and if I am ever up in Alaska (I finally got my wife interested) I will look you up!

[akdave]

Jonathon If you are really going to come up get ahold of me prior to planning your trip and I will give you some ideas on a trip of a lifetime

Jonathon the wife and I had some friends who lived in phoenix for 20 years and his work offered him moving expenses and more on his retirement if he would move so at the beginning of winter they moved to Alaska and they stayed till he retired they loved it up there

[akdave]

Surprised he came back, Military brought me here 36 years ago and no plans on leaving

akdave I’ve got a friend in Anchorage who did the same thing after retirement from the Army. He catches a military hop to Travis a couple times a year to come down to Nor Cal & visit friends & family.

Hey - How do I get Waltons to ship USPS to AK? I just called the other day and it was $65 for 3 packages of seasoning and casing. I mentioned to lady it would be great if they could ship USPS to AK. I ordered it and had to use a freight forwarding company so it will take much longer and a little more money (but not $65) to get here. Thanks

MAD KK I thought Austin set up USPS to Alaska about a year ago, reference AKDave. You might want to tie out with Austin and see if it is still available.

Will this apply to Canada as well? Same issue as Alaskans.

jfyoung45 Austin Jonathon can you guys chime in on Canadian shipping

[Austin]

jfyoung45 we will have some better options in 2-3 weeks. Changes to the website are coming.

Not exactly related to the OP’s concern, but sort of.

I do a lot of buying and selling from individuals who may be infrequent sellers and not set up for prepaid shipping labels. For those not familiar with them, you can set up a free account with USPS, Fedex, or UPS and purchase prepaid shipping labels on line.

For the convenience of sellers, and to get the best shipping rate for me, I will often offer to email the seller a prepaid shipping label that he can print out and slap on the box with my purchase. The seller can then just drop off at the post office or Fedex store without waiting in line. This gives me a choice on shipping and usually a better price than the seller can get. It gives the seller the convenience of not having to figure out shipping rates and logistics. Win-Win.

processhead said in Waltons Shipping Policy:

The seller can then just drop off at the post office

To make it even more convenient if it is a priority or express mail product they will come to you for the pickup saving the trip to the post office.
