Fleischer's Auctions packages and ships most items in-house. We make an effort to ensure the lowest shipping rate possible while still meeting our package safety standards.

Large items, framed pieces, and any item that we are unable to package and ship in-house will be marked in the catalog as being packaged and shipped by a third-party service. Successful bidders winning items marked as being packaged and shipped by a third-party service are responsible for paying the third party directly. We are happy to offer complimentary drop-off service to local third-party packing/shipping companies in Columbus, Ohio. Once an item is dropped off and no longer in our possession, Fleischer's Auctions is not liable for the item's safe handling or shipment to the successful bidder.
