Fine print for International buyers:  Shipping outside the United States is extra and not free.  We use the United States Postal Service (USPS) postage price calculator to get a best estimate of shipping and insurance charges for the buyer.  A number of countries have low insurance value limits, which frequently are less than the sale price of an item.  Thus, please do not bid on an item if it cannot be insured for at least what you are paying for the item.  Copy and paste this address to your browser to determine the shipping and insurance cost:  http://ircalc.usps.gov/

Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.  Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.  These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick up the item – do not confuse them for additional shipping charges.  We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit this.

Buyer’s Responsibility for Reporting Damaged Items:

 

Seller attempts to ship most items with insurance with USPS or UPS.  Buyer most report within 48 hours of receipt of items being received in order to make claim for damage goods to seller.  Buyer also must take photos of any items reported damaged and must notify seller of such damage and forward such proof.  Buyer must retain all original packing material and submit item for review by third parties to make claims for damaged items and any applicable refunds.  Failure to keep items for review for seller’s insurance claim or notify seller of any loss within these guidelines will forfeit rights of buyer to seek refunds for damaged goods received.
