Subscribing to Aurantius Shells

By entering your email address above (please be sure that there are no typos), you agree to receive periodic emails sent from Aurantius.com. For each new LIST release, you will receive two emails: The first is sent out prior to a new LIST, informing you exactly when the shells are going to be posted to Aurantius.com. A second email is sent at the moment the new LIST is live on the site. There is no set schedule for new LIST releases, the timing depends on the shell supply and available time to prepare photographs.

How to Order

Ordering from the LIST is very rudamentary. You will see that below each available shell is a checkbox and price. This inidcates that the respective shell is available to order. Simply check the box under each shell you would like to purchase. When you are finished with your selection, enter your email address in the top-right bar and click the "Order" button (IMPORTANT: if you do not enter your email address then I have no way of knowing who placed the order). This website is not a dynamic, data-driven site and does not have an automatic ordering system. This means that when orders are placed, I receive an email and must manually change the status of each shell from available to "Sold". Therefore, I cannot avoid the event where one shell is ordered by more than one person before I have time to process the first request. Due to this issue, you are not guarenteed to receive every shell that you ordered. I reserve shells according to who places the order first.

After an order is placed, please allow 24 hours to receive an email from Aurantius Shells titled "Aurantius Order (Month, Year)". This email contains a list of all the shells you ordered, which ones are reserved to you, and the total, shipping and payment information. I charge a flat fee for shipping: $5 USA, $10 USA with insurance, $10 International (no tracking), $20 International (Registered Mail with limited tracking). Shipping is fixed no matter how many shells you add to the box, so I am happy to hold a parcel for future additions IF THE CURRENT BALANCE HAS BEEN PAID IN FULL. For payments, I prefer PayPal but also accept check, money order and Western Union.
