Plush is in previously owned good condition, with no noted rips, tears or other flaws. Please see pictures as they are considered part of the description. Please note that most of my items are preowned and may have some signs of playwear. These will be noted and described to the best of my ability. If you have questions, please contact me. I know shipping is expensive and changing all the time. I do what I can to ship as reasonably as possible. I ship first class, in polybags whenever possible to save you as much as I can on shipping. If you would prefer a box, just let me know before purchase, and I can give you a shipping quote (often this may take you from first class shipping into priority shipping.) If the item is vintage with the older stuffing materials or otherwise fragile, I will send in a box for safety. This will usually mean priority shipping. If the item is large, but safely squishable or foldable to remain under 12x12x12, I will ship in large polybag. If the package or box is larger or heavier, I will add both priority mail and priority flat rate box rates, and you can choose whichever is cheaper to your area. If you would like to purchase more than 1 item, please let me know and I can send you an invoice with combined shipping when possible. Thank you!
