​Paying for Services 
we accept all credit cards
 If your bow requires additional work, you can indicate so in your email.  No work is ever done unless it is authorized by customer. The payments are securely processed by SQUARE.
If you are interested in restoration work, send us detailed pictures first.
                             Shipping
Shipping costs vary depending on distance. We ship the bow back to you at our expense using UPS Ground with no signature.
If you have our packaging, you may want to take advantage of $15 shipping ($25 for Alaska).  To do so simply add “please email me prepaid shipping label” to your email. 
You MUST include your shipping address and phone every time you order the label.

If you do not want to use our prepaid label,
simply download the shipping label every time you ship your bow.
