The Merry Adventures
of Robin Hood
by Howard Pyle (1853-1911)
Robin Hood is the archetypal English folk hero; a
courteous, pious and swashbuckling outlaw of the
mediæval era who, in modern versions of the legend, is
famous for robbing the rich to feed the poor and
fighting against injustice and tyranny. He operates with
his “seven score” (140 strong) group of fellow outlawed
yeomen – named the Merry Men. He and his band are
usually associated with Sherwood Forest,
Nottinghamshire.
The Victorian era generated its own distinct versions
of Robin Hood. The traditional tales were often adapted
for children, most notably in Howard Pyle’s Merry
Adventures of Robin Hood. These versions firmly stamp
Robin as a staunch philanthropist, a man who takes from
the rich to give to the poor.

Frequently Asked Questions: |
Why should I buy from you? There are lots of places to buy
similar stuff on ebay. What makes you so special? |
What separates us from the
rest is that we want you to be happy. If you're happy, you'll buy
from us again and tell your friends. Getting one sale from you is
great, but we want the next sale from you and the next one after that.
It isn't worth a few bucks to us to have one unhappy customer. If
you are unhappy, tell us and let us try to fix the problem. How
many sellers will say that? |
Yeah, so, there are lots of other sellers on ebay. Are you saying the
rest of them will rip me off? |
No, of course not.
But, beware of what people sell on ebay. Many sellers on here will
charge you an exhorbitant amount for shipping. Many will
"claim" to provide discount shipping only when you contact them,
they'll tell you they'll take a quarter off the shipping price for
each additional item. We never do that. Our combined
shipping policy is clearly spelled out for those to see. No
tricky or cheap discounts.
Simple as that. Also, when comparing our films to those of
others, take note of not only the price of the item, but also the
content. You'll see that we not only offer more content per
package then our competition, and not only at the cheapest shipping,
but also at the cheapest price too. |
I want to see a sample
before I commit to buying. Please send me a free sample. |
We are sorry that our
description, as well as our strong ebay reputation, does not provide
you with a strong enough comfort level to purchase from us.
With that said, we do not provide "free samples". |
What if my disk arrives
damaged? |
We offer a no muss, no
fuss guarantee that all damaged disks are replaced free of charge. |

All items will be shipped out within 1
business day to your PayPal address. We will only ship to your PayPal verified address.
Please view our shipping and sales tax rules on our shipping and
payments tab above.
All items are shipped by USPS first class mail. In an effort to keep our costs down, that are passed along as low prices to you, all of our disks are packaged and shipped in economic sleeves and mailers. All of our disks are labeled with a clean label
and some graphics.
The disks are made this way for speed and cost, which translates
into lower cost for you. We focus our efforts on the quality of the
material on the disk. We do not believe in charging you an
extra 3 or 4 dollars like some companies out there just to throw
in a 25 cent plastic case and slap a color label on an item.
We believe you purchase for content, and ours is the best,
although we still believe you will be pleased with the
presentation.
PLEASE READ
ABOUT SHIPPING TIMES:
The estimated delivery dates shown above are ebay's estimates,
not ours. Sometimes ebay's dates are completely
unrealistic. Every effort is made to get your item out the
next day, but once it leaves us, we ask that you please
understand that we do not guarantee delivery by any date, since
the USPS does not give us a guarantee either. Below is our
estimates on what to expect:
USA CUSTOMERS: Most times, your package will arrive in
about 1 week after we ship them depending on where you are at.
However, lately the Post Office it seems has not been very
cooperative with us and we've had a couple of customers wait a few
days longer than that. If the item does not arrive, please
email us directly and let us know, and we will make it right.
NON-USA CUSTOMERS: Same deal above, except your
packages typically have been taking about 2 weeks or so after we ship
them. We've noticed that maybe 20% of overseas customers have been
waiting as long as 4+ weeks for these shipments. The only
explanation we can come up with is that it must be stuck in some
container in some dock waiting on customs clearance. It happens,
and for those 20% of customers, we apologize, but there is very
little we can do about that. Your disk will arrive or we will replace
it.
Multiple items purchased by the same
customer may or may not be shipped in the same package, at our
discretion. We do not offer any additional discounts on
multiple items other than the ones noted above.
Feedback Policy:
Please offer us a chance
to fix any problems before leaving us negative feedback for any
reason by emailing us first with your problem. The only thing
we ask from our customers is that if they have a problem, that they
give us a chance to fix the problem for them before they leave bad
feedback. If negative feedback is left without any prior
communication, we will assume you are no longer interested in
communicating and working things out.
If you run into
issues and wish to speak with us, we ask that you please refrain
from opening a request on ebay and email us directly by asking a
question first, and give us a chance to answer you before you open a
request!
If you have any questions
prior to bidding, please use contact the seller above and let us
know. Thank you!!!!!!
