General Statement:

I have been a buyer on Ebay for a number of years. Some of the auction items that I purchased over the years, I really needed, and many other winning auction items (like 100 pairs of chopsticks - REALLY) after some embarrassment and family criticism, have made for a good story. It is my sincere goal to never embarrass any buyer, and to attempt to make every buyer who purchases one of my listed auction items more than satisfied. All of the auction items (whether pre-owned or brand new) come from a clean, pet-free, smoke-free, and mold-free home. I will always try and address any criticism or complaint in a prompt and thorough manner. I have procrastinated listing items on Ebay long enough and now it is time to say goodbye to some of my family’s belongings.

Happy Bidding!!!
