How to place an order

Please send us an e-mail with the item number of the specimen(s) that you are interested in, what page it is on & we will check the availability of your item(s). We are committed to keeping our Website updated in a timely manner. However, all specimens are offered on a first come, first served basis.  You will receive an e-mail response, usually within 24 hours, as to the availability of the item(s) you are requesting.

Shipping

Domestic Orders: Shipping via U.S. mail is $7.00 for the first item, $1.25 for each additional item for domestic orders. We also have the option for your order to be sent insured. *We strongly recommend that you choose the insurance.  Insurance for orders up to $200 is $3.50, please add an additional $1.50 per $100.00 after that.  If you wish to have your order sent via Express mail or another carrier please contact us via e-mail for rates.

NOTE: All Nevada residents must pay 7.725% Sales Tax

International Orders: Please send us an e-mail for shipping rates to your country.  International customers are responsible for all duties & taxes.**

*Insurance: The reason we strongly recommend that you purchase insurance is; although we do take extreme care in the packaging of your specimen(s), we cannot control what the USPS or any other carrier does to your package once we ship your order.   In other words If you choose to have your order sent without insurance, Cal Neva Mineral Company assumes no liability in regards to the condition your order arrives in.

**Depending on the country that we are shipping to insurance may not be available.  Please contact us for further information about insurance for international orders.
