Here Are My General Terms of Sale
1.If you have not immediately paid for this item after winning it, please feel free to pay for
as soon as you can. If this is the only item you purchased today, then the invoice you get from Ebay
will be correct. If you purchased more than one item today (or over the course of several days) and
you have not paid for your purchases, please wait as I will send out an invoice with (possibly) reduced
postage costs. If you'd like to pay for your purchases by some method OTHER than Paypal, please
let me know and I will send a personal invoice.
2. For buyers that did not pay for their items immediately at sale time, I expect that the buyer
of this item will send payment within 3 days of receiving my invoice. A Non-Paying Bidder Alert will
be issued if payment is not received within 14 days of the sale date. This does NOT mean you will get a Strike against
your account. It is merely a reminder to take care of your obligation as winning
bidder. The Alert will be removed once the lot has been paid for. If the lot remains
unpaid for after 30 days, I will escalate the Alert to a Complaint after which you may
receive an Unpaid Strike and be blocked from future participation in my sales.
3. I reserve the right to cancel this listing for whatever reason and at any time.
4. All items are offered as genuine and unconditionally guaranteed to be what I
claim them to be. In the unlikely event that an item was misdescribed and must be returned,
a full refund will be cheerfully provided if (and only if) I concur with the buyer's evaluation.
5. If an item must be returned, then it must be received no later than 14 days
from the sale date unless an extension for certification has been given.
6. If the buyer wishes to send an item for certification, then I must be
notified at the time of purchase that an item is being sent. I will not accept an item in
return from anyone that did not follow this term - even if an item is returned with a
bad certificate. The reason for this is that I do have collectors that consign material
to me for sale. And I cannot go back to them months after an item has been paid for and
ask that they send me the money back for such an item. It is important that this term
be followed.
7. Stamps described with any fault or faults may not be returned for any reason (except
one); even if another fault was discovered that was not mentioned. The only reason I
will accept a return on a lot with faults is if the stamp is determined not to be the
stamp being offered (i.e. I describe it as a #27 and it turns out to be a #28). In other
words if I describe a stamp with a thin spot and a buyer also finds a crease that I did not
describe, then the item may not be returned because of the additional crease found.
8. In the unlikely even that an item has to be returned, no postage costs of any kind
will be refunded under any circumstances (even if an item has to be returned as a result of my error).

Unblock my Emails!
Every once in a while I get a message from a buyer that either they were waiting for an invoice
or they never received an invoice I had sent them. This is sometimes caused by a buyer's ISP rejecting
emails from my email client, JUNO. I would suggest that you double check your email set up to make
sure that you don't have JUNO blocked in your ISP setup. This will avoid a potentially embarrassing
situation for us both.

About Those Negative Feeback Comments You See
You may notice that I have a number of negative comments in my feedback section. And, I am
probably one of a very small minority who actually will point this out. And I point it out
to make a point. Most of those negative comments were left by buyers outside the US
that did not receive what they paid for. Regrettably, this does happen on occasion which
is why I stress that if you are a buyer outside the US you a) make absolutely certain that
I have the correct address to send your item(s) to and b) consider taking the Registration
I offer. Yes, it is a bit expensive but it may be worth it for your peace of mind.
