"BUILD AN ORDER"
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN SEVERAL PIECES OF CHINA AND THEY ARE LISTED IN VARIOUS FORMATS, JUST DROP ME A NOTE, AND TELL ME HOW MANY OF EACH PIECE YOU WANT, AND I WILL THEN CREATE AN ITEM JUST FOR YOU WITH THE DESIRED NUMBER OF PIECES!!!!!! (This will mainly work for the Fixed Price Formats), however, if there are NO BIDS on an auction item, and you are purchasing a set, I would end the auction for you for that particular piece to sell it in a grouping, this ONLY applies to china listings. IT WOULD SAVE YOU A LOT OF TIME TO TRY TO FIND EACH ITEM, AND ORDER THEM ALL SEPARATELY.
*****IMPORTANT: IF PURCHASING MULTIPLE ITEMS, PLEASE WAIT FOR ME TO SEND INVOICE SO I MAY ADJUST YOUR S&H COSTS FOR COMBINED... IT CANNOT BE DONE AFTER YOU PAID. ***

CONDITION REPORT-ITEM SPECIFICS:
1) I sell antique and vintage items and as I try to describe them to the best of my ability, I am not an expert.
2) Please realize that antique and vintage items are NOT perfect! If you are looking for PERFECT NEW MERCHANDISE which has a functionality, guarantee, waranty, etc., you would be well-advised to purchase your item in a store that sells new merchandise.
3)Vintage, antique items are desirable for their vintage, ethnic, or historical antique characteristics. Also, with functioning parts, as with clocks, lamps, or lighters, or the like, etc. I sell them primarily for their antique and vintage aesthetic appeal. If you need items such as these to function mechanically and be in perfect condition this is not your store.
4)Antique glass items are going to bear certain characteristics common to their period of manufacture such as seam lines, straw marks, air bubbles and possibly the fact that their feet do not sit flat on a surface. Any questions or concerns, please ask!!!!!!!!! China dinnerware is going to have a number of characteristics which come with age, such as crazing, utensil marks, lines, dulling, hazing, fading etc. Please reference my "Grading Scale" in the china listings for more details. On ocassion, I do not photograph each individual piece, so please READ THE condition as detailed in the description. I do not sell items with major flaws.
Thank you for shopping at Eagle Bay!
