I used to work in the china department of a large regional
department store and I know how to pack items to ensure that they arrive in
great shape.
Price always takes condition into consideration.
I don’t send offers to people who watch my listings. I have listings that have a lot of people
watching them and often the person who buys it wasn’t someone who was watching
it. If you’re interested in making an
offer, please send me a message and we’ll see if we can work something out. I research current listings and what things
have sold for, so I usually have a pretty good feel for what something should
sell for. Please do not send me offers
for substantially less than the list price as they will be declined. If the listing is Buy it now only, that means
I am not accepting offers.
If the listing says final price or final discount, that
means it’s about to go to the thrift store and you need to act quickly, and I
am not accepting offers.
If I notice something with the item during final inspection
before shipment that wasn’t described in the listing, I will send you a message
to alert you to along with photos and an offer of a discount and then you can
decide whether or not to go forward with the transaction. I try to be thorough in my descriptions, but
with the volume of items I have listed, I sometimes miss things.
If you’re interested in buying multiple items from me from
various listings (not multiples of the same item), please message me first so I
can help you do it in the best way possible, and walk you through the process. The shipping cost also needs to be adjusted
on multiples of the same item because the calculated weight of the item
includes a box and I will make that adjustment, as long as the items ship in
the same box.
I do not add a handling charge to the shipping cost for my
items. The shipping cost is based on the
level of service (priority, ground, 1st class), the weight and size
of the box (if any dimension of the box is greater than 12”, that incurs a
premium, and more of a premium if more than one dimension is 12”), and how far
it has to travel. If you are on the west
coast, that is a LONG way from here, so shipping is going to be expensive. I agree that sometimes that shipping number
looks like a lot, but the system auto-calculates it for me, and I have checked
prices versus USPS website and they are correct. However, if the shipping cost looks really
out of whack, please contact me. I do
make mistakes when entering package size and weight at times. If shipping calculates too high, I will
adjust after sale.
I ship same or next business day.
Always happy to answer any questions.
