International Shipments
NB: ***All International orders are currently shipped via United States Postal Service due to increasingly high shipping rates with FedEx, UPS and other global carriers***
The good news is that we have also introduced a single flat rate, regardless of how many pieces you buy, you will only pay the shipping once. The bad news is that the USPS service is a little slower and less attentive on the delivery side as the parcel will come with your local mail delivery.
All of the artwork is shipped insured at no cost to you, so we will replace anything that is damaged or lost.
If you want to ship faster (three days or less) using our FedEx International Priority service please just place a note in the comments section of your order or email us at art@gapingvoid.com and we will contact you with a quote for your shipment.
International shipping has become very expensive, and some people think that it is a profit center for us. We guarantee you that it is not!

I was sad to learn that the former New York Mayor, Ed Koch passed away last week.
To me, Koch was always THE New York Mayor, even more so than Rudolph Giuliani.
This famous New York street sign that came out during his administration (which I appropriated) is pure Koch:
One New Yorker, talking like a real New Yorker, to other New Yorkers.
It resonates because that’s how New Yorkers actually sound. It works because there’s an actual inherent truth to it.
Contrast that use of language with how most power speaks to the non-powerful i.e. patronizing and synthetic.
One of my great heroes, George Orwell famously wrote about how proper language is always the first victim of tyranny, in his marvelous essay, “Politics And The English Language”.
And he expanded upon the ideas put forth in the essay, of course, in his most famous work, “1984”.
Language matters. And woe betide anyone; politician, marketer or citizen, who is conveniently allowed to forget that.
Thank God for folk like Koch for keepin’ it real...
