HELLO, friends and fellow ''STAR WARS'' fans, and WELCOME to kentuckyrebel'srock'n'rollheaven, where I've specialized in selling not only MUSIC MEMORABILIA for over TWENTY YEARS (and MANY MORE YEARS in the outside world, long before the advent of online auctions), but ''STAR WARS'' COLLECTIBLES, as well!

Yes, I was an original "STAR WARS" kid a long time ago, when the first film hit the theaters during the mid-1970's, in a galaxy far, far away. Given I even had a "STAR WARS" bedspread, I used to literally sleep with PRINCESS LEIA every night! Anyhow...

THANK YOU for the interest in my music group's last CD, "LISTEN UP... IT'S THE ECHOES"--free downloadable samples being AVAILABLE ONLINE at AllMusic and, of course, THE ECHOES OFFICIAL WEBSITE--and for the overwhelming response to our follow-up CD, "NOW HEAR THIS," online and in stores now!

And now, with all that said...

Just in time for HALLOWEEN, I'm auctioning off my COLLECTION of classic ''STAR WARS'' HALLOWEEN MASKS and COSTUMES, in their ORIGINAL BOXES, with some outfits showing MINIMAL WEAR, and some showing A LOT, but all definitely being something you don't see everyday; especially standing outside your door OCTOBER 31st, and ALL perfect for PLAY or DISPLAY!

The WINNER of this particular "kentuckyrebel" AUCTION will receive ONE (1) 100% original, RARE, and vintage GAMORREAN GUARD MASK and COSTUME--as manufactured by BEN COOPER in 1983, but in an ''THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK'' BOX, with upcoming movie title being erroneously / originally promoted as ''REVENGE OF THE JEDI''--COMPLETE in its ORIGINAL BOX (which does show wear, but has done an admirable job protecting its contents); this outfit being for a CHILD's size LARGE (12-14 / 53'' to 58'' inches tall).

As shown and stated, BOX shows wear and tear, with MASK showing numerous (mainly small) cracks along edges (but some larger ones on chin), and COSTUME, itself (which, again, has ''REVENGE OF THE JEDI'' printed on it), showing MINIMAL WEAR (wrinkling from being folded up and stored in box all these years, but little else). Will definitely make an ''IMPRESSIVE... MOST IMPRESSIVE'' addition to any, and especially your, ''STAR WARS'' COLLECTION--although please SEE PHOTOS for overall CONDITION, as well--my hating to GRADE my items since so many sellers seem to abuse both the English language and Oxford dictionary: adding a plethora of plusses to their own definitions of VG, EX, NM, etc. However, as is noted in my FEEDBACK FILE, I don't sell junk (since I, personally, don't like buying junk on eBay--or anywhere else, for that matter); and feel certain that this auction is SURE TO PLEASE the vintage "STAR WARS" COLLECTOR and / or CONNOISSEUR (especially at the OPENING BID; with none of that "I have a really bad feeling about this" on MY AUCTIONS)!

I always COMBINE SHIPPING on multiple auctions, and prefer to ship items by PRIORITY MAIL (with most items paid for using this method receiving "HYPERSPACE" / same day SHIPPING), but will make concessions since FED EX or UPS may be less expensive (and may be used by me, in place of PRIORITY MAIL, in the event of MULTIPLE WINS since, as indicated, every ADDITIONAL AUCTION / ITEM SHIPS FREE). I also REFUND any amount overpaid on POSTAGE--although given I always add INSURANCE, and the fact eBay takes 10% of shipping off the top, I tend to lose money on, rather than profit from, POSTAL COSTS.

Reluctantly, with the USPS having continued to RAISE THEIR RATES FOR ITEMS LEAVING THE COUNTRY--which all but killed my OVERSEAS SALES--coupled with eBay's insisting I provide TRACKING and PayPal insisting I add INSURANCE, I joined the eBay INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING PROGRAM in hopes of saving my buyers money, but have since found out that this isn't always so. In cases such as these, I'm more than happy to look into OVERSEAS POSTAGE myself, when asked, and definitely recommend this for buyers wanting to make MULTIPLE PURCHASES since eBay's GLOBAL SHIPPING doesn't tend to COMBINE SHIPPING, and I can usually save my customers a considerable amount when handling SHIPMENT for them directly.

As this is an AUCTION--and not a DEPARTMENT STORE--I don't accept RETURNS; but since I try to be as thorough as possible in my descriptions, always include INSURANCE at my own expense, and (as my FEEDBACK notes) am known for my PACKING ABILITIES, there should be no foreseeable problems. I'm also known for my "LIGHT YEAR" / speedy SHIPMENT upon receiving PAYMENT; and always NOTIFY my buyers when payment is received and their item has SHIPPED!

THANK YOU for looking; and PLEASE feel free to CONTACT ME with any QUESTIONS you have about this or any other of my eBay AUCTIONS, check my eBay STORE, read my ABOUT ME page, ask about my music group THE ECHOES, and please check out my other AUCTIONS on eBay THIS WEEKEND!
