eBay

I am now going to start listing the last of the Watkins collection I bought.  There will be 38 auctions starting today and I will hopefully be done by lunch tomorrow.  I will go next into medical, health and beauty tins, boxes and bottles.

DESCRIPTION:

J.R. WATKINS COUGH SYRUP BOTTLE WITH ORIGINAL LABEL.  SOME EDGE WEAR AND SOME SURFACE WEAR.  NO CHIPS OR CRACKS.  SEE THE PICS... USED BUT A GREAT PIECE FOR YOUR WATKINS OR MEDICINE COLLECTION!

Please be sure to see all the pictures as they are always the best description!  I am listing A LOT of items and sometimes miss something... never on purpose... but it happens.  The pictures tell all!!!

SHIPPING:

SHIPPING:  THE SHIPPING FOR THESE WATKINS ITEMS IS DIFFICULT!  THERE ARE BOXES, BOTTLES, SIGNS, ETC.  I AM GOING TO LIST SHIPPING FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL ITEM.  IF YOU WIN MULTIPLE ITEMS I WILL HAVE TO COMBINE SHIPPING FOR YOU ACCORDING TO THE SIZE AND WEIGHT OF THE BOX.  I WILL HAVE TO INVOICE YOU AT THE END OF THE AUCTION FOR MULTIPLE WATKINS ITEMS WON.  I WISH I COULD DO BETTER BUT IT WILL BE TOO CONFUSING!  IT IS NOT FAIR TO COMPARE A SMALL ASPIRIN TIN TO A LARGE GLASS BOTTLE IN MY COMBINED SHIPPING.  If you do win multiple auctions please contact me for a revised invoice. 

IF YOU PAY BEFORE YOU ARE DONE BIDDING... I may send your tins immediately!  I try to stay on top of the shipping so I don't fall behind.  IF YOU PAY EARLY AND I SHIP and then you buy more tins I CANNOT SHIP THE SECOND GROUP with the free shipping... I have no way of knowing when you intend to stop bidding and am only trying to give you the best service I possibly can.  I will have to charge you for each package sent! 

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT PAY AND ASK ME TO HOLD YOUR ITEM!!!!  I guarantee 24 hour shipping.  When you pay early and ask me to hold your items then I cannot ship within the 24 hour window and eBay knocks down my shipping rating.  PLEASE WAIT UNTIL YOU ARE DONE BIDDING... CONTACT ME FOR A REVISED INVOICE... THEN PAY THE REVISED INVOICE!!!  I cannot have you pay... pay again... pay again and then ship.  If my on-time shipping rating falls below 90% I lose my seller discount.

OUTSIDE OF THE USA SHIPPING:  I do ship outside of the USA but DO NOT give shipping quotes.  Shipping quotes mean packaging your item up only to have somebody else win the item and then need a different type of box, or to combine it with something else, or to need to unpack it for more pictures or to answer more questions.  I pack very well and keep cost in mind!  I pack and ship A LOT of items outside the USA and have never had any problems.  If the item or items are valued and $250 or more then I must use Global Priority so I an track the package. 

BACKGROUND:  Over the past two years I have been buying mostly one gigantic collection of tins along with several smaller collections... not to mention all of the tins I have found on my own in shops and at shows.  I will be listing well over 1000 tins over the next several months.  I have purchased over 15,000 tins in the past two years.  Those that do not sell on eBay are on display for sale at the Granary Mall in Walnut, Iowa.  Please visit me there if you are ever traveling across I-80.  I will be selling many different categories of tins so please check back frequently!!!  Thanks and good luck!!!
