Shipping is flat rate, .00 per order, and the posters will be shipped rolled up in a sturdy tube. Flat rate shipping will be applied automatically if you put all of your selections in the cart before paying, but if you order singly at the same time I will issue a refund for the extra shipping charges.

Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back. Thank you for looking.
