U.S. Buyer pays the postage
cost shown in the shipping calculator below for secure USPS Shipping with package tracking. To qualify for combined shipping, all purchased
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!
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: I can often combine like items that close on
the same day and that are paid for together in one payment through
eBay. To qualify for combined shipping, the items should close on the same
day and all items MUST be paid for together in the same single payment through
eBay. Be sure to request a new combined total from seller before remitting
payment if you win more than one item.
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.
BEST
OFFERS: Although my asking prices are already very fair, and in
almost every case are based upon the sale price of the same or very similar
items that have previously sold on eBay, I do allow "Best
Offers" on most of my fixed price listings. This is to make buying even
more fun and to allow buyers to feel that they got a really good deal when
their offer is accepted! Please do not abuse this option and send
"Low-Ball" offers that are only a fraction of my asking price, they
will never be accepted. Try reasonable offers like 10%, 15%, or on some items
maybe even as much as 20% under my asking price, and your offer may likely be
accepted. Just be reasonable and we can both have fun with this option! I do
try to respond to every offer received, but remember that eBay has all offers
expire after just one day, so if I am away from my office for just a day or
two, I may never get a chance to respond to your offer, so if you do not
receive a reply from me, be sure to resend your offer if it has expired before
I could respond.
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 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 THE USPS SOMETIMES EXPERIENCES DELAYS IN SHIPPING
TIMES. PLEASE BE EXTRA PATIENT DURING THOSE DIFFICULT TIMES FOR BOTH
BUYERS AND SELLERS, ESPECIALLY WITH USPS MEDIA MAIL AND GROUND ADVANTAGE
PACKAGE MAIL, WHICH CAN SOMETIMES TAKE 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.
Based on my experience of selling on eBay for over 25 years and having shipped
tens of thousands of items through the USPS please allow the following shipping
times, depending upon your distance from CA 92025 and the shipping method for
which you selected and/or paid: USPS Ground Advantage Mail averages 2-5
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
sometimes 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 left feedback for me. Thank you very much!
