Big BuckaCover & Cover Box uploads coming Monday February 8!
February 2, 2010
On Monday February 8, we will upload about 6,000 new covers to our BuckaCover inventory.
We will also add well over 1000 new covers to the Cover Box inventory. This upload will include an incredible stock of better USA covers - about 500 covers with values from $5 to $500 each. Also, hundreds of premium topical FDC's from all over the world.
We will activate the Cover Box first at 2:00pm EST, and then an hour later at 3:00pm we will activate the BuckaCover
additions. That way, you don't have to decide which to browse first! Remember, the same shopping cart handles both, so you do not
have to send in separate orders. Just leave your Cover Box selections in your shopping cart and they will still be there when you shop
the BuckaCover additions and add to them!
For your own personal reminder (including a complete list of categories getting new covers, and quantities)
join our mailing list!
Thanks to our pricing method, not only will there be thousands of fresh new covers,
but thousands more older covers will be dropping down to the next price level.
(usually about 9,000 price drops!) We have outlined our pricing process in detail on our
"Pricing" page.
If you are not on our mailing list, you should be! Find out why!
Rather than try to give you the time in your time zone,
we have put a clock on this page to let you know what time it is here. You can use this website
to line up the time for your time zone: World Time Server.
International postage rate hike effective February 1
February 1, 2010
Effective February 1, we have had to increase our postage charge for international orders from $3.00 to $4.00. (Charges to US and Canada are not affected).
We're really sorry we had to do this, but we have not had a rate increase since we started the BuckaCover site in 2003. With the combination of the decline of the US dollar, and annual rate increases by
Canada post, our actual cost to mail the smallest order has increased from US$2.50 to US$4.00, and that does not include any of our packaging materials. We hate to make changes, but we just couldn't hold out any longer.
Orders over $50 are still postage free, anywhere in the world.
Small pricing change coming with this upload
January 2, 2010
In order to keep the flow of good covers coming, we have to make a small change to our pricing structure for BuckaCover.com. We are finding that the market for good covers to keep BuckaCover.com fed
is becoming more and more competitive, especially for some of our categories.
Rather than stop buying these "tougher" categories, we are going make a change that we hope will allow us to continue adding better and better covers. Beginning with this upload,
new covers will start at two different prices - $1.50 and $1.75. Only about 25% of the upload will start at $1.75 - but they will only stay there for the one upload. As of the following upload, they will drop to $1.50 along with the rest, and continue on our usual price schedule.
We hope you will understand our reasons for this small change. Our goal is to continue to offer the best covers in this price range on the 'Net!

Due to consistent mail losses to some countries, we regret that we can no longer accept orders from a number of countries, including:
- India, Bangladesh, Pakistan
- Turkey
- Egypt
- Russia
- Mexico
- others
Some other countries require an extra insurance fee. Please see our Terms of Sale.
If in doubt, please contact us first before spending a lot of time building an order.
Enjoy!
Debbie and Roy
