If a person bids and wins online, how do they get the item shipped to them?

I went to the preview for the last sale and they offered shipping but it was really expensive. Remember when you bid on these items there is a buyers premuim they tack on to the final hammer price. Could be expensive.

I will be attending the preview again in the coming weeks. Let me know if you want a picture of something

I also remembered that Rod had said something about quality ,was not in fact "museum" quality, although they come out of a musuem... I think they set out just to get good examples of everything... however there are still some pretty nice items that I don't have for my collection yet that I'd like to have.

I am planning on going. Didnt buy anything at the last one but interesting to see all the neat stuff. That large round merryland sign is killer
