DOMESTIC
shipping charges
INCLUDE
insurance. We have enjoyed shipping our items all over the world and are happy to offer most of our items to international buyers. Yet insuring International parcels is very expensive so PLEASE NOTE; we do
NOT
insure International orders unless winning buyer specifically requests this and we are able to provide an insurance quote. We do not falsify information on the Customs Form, such as a price other than what the actual purchase price is, so please do not request us to do so. We ship several times a week and send payment acknowledgments and shipping confirmations. Your prompt payment will assure a very quick turn-around time.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If our shipping charge is much more than the actual shipping cost, we will refund the excess so what
YOU
pay for shipping/insurance is very close to, if not exactly, the
ACTUAL
shipping costs! This is especially important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are rough estimates
.

Colored hair bottles are one of the most beautiful categories of antique bottle collecting, as they come in a vast array of shapes and colors as this one testifies to.   Even the embossing on these bottles is pretty catchy, "
HAIR VIGOR
" as the
definition of Vigor is
:   1)
Active bodily or mental strength or force
;  2)
Active healthy well-balanced growth especially of plants
(as if it was able to actually grow and nurture hair much as you would do for a house plant!!!)
and 3)
intensity of action or effect
.   This is the ultimate colored HAIR TONIC bottle
