PAYMENT - All items are to be paid via PayPal within 3 days of
the end of the auction. If this is going to be a problem for you,
please contact me PRIOR to bidding so other arrangements can be made. I
will gladly work with you. Florida residents pay 7% sales tax on purchase only. An Unpaid Item Dispute (IUD) will be filed for all items that remain unpaid after 8 days.
SHIPPING -
All fragile/breakable items are carefully packaged for shipment using
bubble wrap, packing peanuts and other packing materials as necessary.
Some packing material are new, some are clean used materials.
BOOKS - Individual
books are shipped in bubble lined mailing envelopes. If you wish to
have your book shipped in a box, please let me know prior to paying for
the item, as S&H may be slightly higher due to the added weight of
the box. Large lots of books are shipped in boxes.
SHIPPING CHARGES - Please use the shipping calculator to
determine shipping charges to you zip code. The amount charged for
S&H is based on the current USPS postal rates, shipping material
required to safely ship your purchase, and the additional percent that
EBAY and PayPal charge in the way of fees for all payments that I
collect. Frequently this cost does not cover all the fees I incur. In
fact, I try to absorb some of the fees, however I am just not able to
cover it all. My ultimate goal is to keep your shipping charges as low
as possible while making every effort to wrap and box all items for safe
shipping. I base my shipping costs on the actual weight of the item.
When I list an item, I estimate how much the item will weigh after being
properly packaged and boxed and I enter that weight into the listing.
eBay's listing page then provides you with a calculated shipping from my
zip code to your zip code, based on that weight. If the shipping seems
higher or lower than other comparable items listed, please consider
where you are located from me. It is a "calculated" cost based on the
USPS postal zones. The more zones/further away you are from Florida the
greater the cost. This means to ship to California, Oregon, Washington,
and other west coast states is considerably more than to ship to
states that are close to Florida. PLEASE NOTE: I try my best to
estimate the actual weight of the packages as best I can, however if
the package turns out to be a bit lighter than estimated and the actual
shipping is less than the calculator estimated, please note that this
is not done intentionally. Please
remember that S&H charges not only cover shipping costs, but
packing materials as well. Please keep this in mind when leaving
feedback regarding S&H charges.
COMBINED SHIPPING - I GLADLY COMBINE SHIPPING for multiple wins paid for at the same time. NOTE: I
do not usually combine media mail items with non-media mail items. If
you are unsure if your multiple purchases can be combined, please ask.
If you do plan to combine shipping for multiple wins, please wait for a
combined invoice before making payment. Combined shipping is as
follows: 100% of the heaviest item, 50% for the 2nd heaviest item, 25%
for the 3rd heaviest item, then $1.00 for each additional item.
SHIPPING DAYS - Once I receive your confirmed payment, your order will be shipped within 24 hours, excluding weekends and holidays. If
you have provided an email address, you will receive an email with
shipping/tracking information once the shipping label has been generated
online.
FEEDBACK - Your
fast payment and positive communication will earn you immediate
positive feedback from me. Once you receive your order, if you have any
issues with any of the items you receive, please contact me PRIOR to leaving negative feedback, as most issues can be worked out reasonably. Please remember, feedback cannot be changed by the buyer or by the seller once it has been posted. Please don't base your feedback on issues that are out of my control, such as slow shipping time or damage due to mishandling of packages by the postal service. Also, please keep in mind that S&H charges not only include shipping fees, but packing material needed to safely prepare your item for shipment.
