We ship items usually the next day, sometimes the day of and we believe in open communication. If you intend on buying multiple items we do combine shipping, but please contact us first for a quote and do not assume anything. For the first item it is $5, for every item thereafter it is an additional $1 (Except lots which are $4 for each additional lot added). If eBay charges more than that then we will refund whatever they overcharge you. On those listings that have the offer option available we ask that the item be paid upon acceptance which is typically immediately. That being said if you need time to pay please say so when making your offer so that we can take that into account in deciding whether or not to accept. We will not wait 2 days to file a non-paying buyer claim, because they are a waste of time. Instead if payment is not made within 24 hours and no communication has been made the sale will be cancelled, the item relisted, and the buyer blocked from future buying opportunities.
