U.S. Buyer pays the postage cost shown in the shipping calculator below. Many, but not all, of my FDC listings will have two shipping options available. The more expensive option is for extra secure and protective, thick, rigid, rain and moisture resistant USPS First Class Package Shipping, which allows tracking both on the USPS website and in your My eBay Purchase History. The less expensive option is for eBay Standard Envelope shipping with the cover placed into a protective semi-rigid plastic top or side loader sleeve which is mailed inside of a standard envelope (if you do not see this least expensive service on another of my FDC listings, just ask and I will be happy to add that shipping service, if available). This second service level allows up to three covers with a maximum weight of 3 oz. and a combined value of no more than $20 shipped together, and these envelopes can be tracked through your My eBay Purchase History, but NOT through the USPS website. With either service it is then just $1.00 additional shipping cost for a second cover purchased, and then only $.50 more for each additional cover shipped with this one to the same address. To qualify for this combined shipping offer, all items should close on the same day and all MUST be paid for together in the same single payment through eBay, so be sure to request a new total from seller before remitting payment if you win more than one item! Please see my other listings for more collectible postcards and many other great items!

HELLO! EACH EBAY SELLER HAS THEIR OWN UNIQUE TERMS OF SALE, SO PLEASE TAKE JUST A MOMENT TO READ THIS LISTING PAGE. REMEMBER, BY PURCHASING OR PLACING A BID YOU ARE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS IN ADVANCE. THANK YOU! 

GENERAL INFORMATION: Please note that my thousands of listed items come from many different sources. While ours is a smoke, furred and feathered pet-free home, some items may have come from homes or businesses with smokers and/or pets. If you are very sensitive to these issues, please contact me before bidding on an item.

All items are guaranteed to be as described and to arrive in that same condition. However, because I offer many different kinds of items, many in used and/or vintage condition, including vintage photographic, electrical and electronic components and equipment, all items are sold without additional or extended warranty of any kind. 

SHIPPING CHARGES & SCHEDULE: Sellers are ONLY allowed to ship items to the address provided to us by eBay with your payment. Be certain to have the correct address listed BEFORE you remit payment. Please do NOT ask me to ship to a different address.

The auction winner or purchaser will pay the shipping charges as shown in the eBay shipping calculator on the listing page. All items shipped through the USPS now include Package Tracking for your convenience.

I ship at least twice each week, normally on Wednesday and Friday (subject to change for occasional holidays, vacations, family obligations, etc.). Your payment must be received and processed before 9AM Pacific Time on a shipping day to ship that same day. Because of this twice weekly shipping schedule, I am not normally able to offer rush next day or expedited shipping, but you may certainly ask to upgrade your shipping to a faster shipping method at additional cost if you need to receive an item quickly.  

USPS SHIPPING TIMES: PLEASE NOTE THAT SOME CARRIERS ARE EXPERIENCING DELAYS IN SHIPPING TIMES. PLEASE BE EXTRA PATIENT DURING THIS DIFFICULT TIME FOR BOTH BUYERS AND SELLERS, ESPECIALLY WITH USPS MEDIA MAIL AND FIRST CLASS PACKAGE MAIL, WHICH IS SOMETIMES TAKING FOUR WEEKS OR MORE IN TRANSIT. Please understand that no seller has any control over carrier shipping times, and that the Expected Delivery date provided by eBay is just their estimate based on normal average shipping times. Allow the following shipping times depending upon your distance from CA 92025 and the shipping method for which you selected and/or paid: USPS First Class Package Mail averages 1-5 business days, but can sometimes take up to four weeks. USPS Priority Mail averages 1-3 business-days, but can take up to two weeks. USPS Media Mail averages 3-10 business-days, but can sometimes take over one month. Seasonally, especially during the Holiday Season, the mails can take even longer. Please do not give any seller that ships promptly less than a five-star rating because of slow USPS shipping and delivery times. 

PAYMENT & SALES TAX: I accept all of the payment methods offered by eBay Managed Payments. Note that laws now require eBay to collect state sales tax for most states. All sales are considered final. 

CANADIAN & INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS: Sorry, due to too many delivery issues, I no longer ship items internationally.

EMAIL NOTICES, QUESTIONS AND FEEDBACK: Please try to email any questions at least 48 hours before the end of the listing to allow me time to respond. eBay will send you a dated confirmation of your payment to me and I will ship your item the very next twice weekly shipping day after receipt of your cleared payment. Please rest assured that I will always attempt to ship exactly as described in these terms, your acceptance of which is a binding condition of bidding on my listings. eBay now automatically leaves you positive feedback after they see that you have feedback for me. Thank you very much!
