A
few important notes about my auctions:
I expect everyone to read my listings and ask
any questions before bidding!!
The items I list are from auctions and estate sales. I do clean
things up before I list them but there is no telling what lingering odors will
crop up after the item is packaged for shipment. If you are terribly
allergic to smoke, pet dander, musty scents, then you should take this into
consideration before bidding. I cannot guarantee that any item has come
from a smoke-free/pet-free home! (I am very sensitive to musty odors and have
stopped buying ephemera for this reason!)
I am not an expert in this items field nor am I
a professional photographer. I describe the item to the best of my abilities
and try to take good pictures. Please feel free to email any questions
including requests for additional pictures. I will do my best to help and
provide you with what you need to bid. With that said, this item is sold
"as is" with no warranties.
I use "Shipping Calculator" to determine the fairest and
most accurate shipping cost. I have added, depending on item size and weight,
to this shipping cost to cover packing material, labeling and labor.
I do combine shipping unless otherwise noted. If you are bidding on more than one of my
auctions, I will happily combine orders to save on shipping and handling
costs. PLEASE WAIT FOR MY INVOICE BEFORE PAYING. If the auctions end over a period of several
days to a couple weeks, I will invoice you each day that you win an auction to
keep us both up-to-date on the balance due.
Once an item is listed in my auctions it will not end until the time
is up. Therefore, I do not do "Buy It Now" on any of my
items. To end a listing early for a buy it now would leave other
interested bidders out of the fun of the treasure hunt!!
Payment is expected within 7 days of the end of the auction. Items
not claimed by a message to me thru eBay or payments not made in a reasonable
time period will result in an "Unpaid Item Dispute" filing and a
place on my "Blocked Bidder" list.
Refunds will not include the shipping and handling costs (because I
already spent them) or return shipping unless other arrangements are made
before returning the item. Good communication is a MUST for ALL returns!
ATTENTION INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS: Any package with a value of $25 or
a weight of 4 pounds or more MUST be sent Priority Mail International. IMPORT DUTIES
AND/OR VALUE ADDED TAX (VAT) IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SHIPPING COSTS and will be collected by the delivering agent when it arrives. First Class International has no tracking or insurance
available. If the item gets lost or damaged you simply have to file a case with
Paypal and since I have no tracking number Paypal automatically decides in your
favor and takes the money out of my account. Then I am out a beautiful item and
all the money:( At least with Priority International I can file an insurance
claim, in the worst case scenario. I try my best to accommodate International
buyers by using First Class on any package valued less than $25 but it is I who
is taking all the risk in doing so. I refuse to take this risk on any items
valued at or over $25.
With
all that said and done....most importantly......enjoy the auctions!!!
