I am a complete prostitute for nice furniture (seriously, I would live in a crap shack with nice furniture if it wasn’t for the smarter half of the duo). Do you take custom orders? ---

> [@Artemis\_Tardis](#): > > Do you guys know if I can ship furniture to the USA? Because… A fisherman has to sell his fish. I sure wish I could afford your work! I’m really lusting after that first set of bookshelves. (Well, it would also be nice if I had room enough for it!) And, hey, if IKEA can ship to the US, you can! ---

Yes, I can!!! And the bookshelves do cost a bit because of all the lumber. You would also have to assemble them (and it takes a biit of practice and persistence). It would be safer to ship something that is already assembled. I take paypal. You give me your request, I draw some sketches, you decide what you want, we set a price and I build it and ship it :). ---

Calculated shipping. 45 dollars for economic shipping for the bench/night stand. 90 for ultra-fast shipping. ---

The bookshelves are also a tad heavy. I will make some studies regarding weight, shippability and cost and will give you a price. kay? 🙂 ---
