Up for grabs is a 1:64 scale Diapet Thomas & Friends Hiro the Japanese engine.  This comes in used condition and appears to have had a little bit of play.  The model features a high amount of detail such as buffers, side rods, working piston rods, whistles, and more.  The model is made of a durable resin with a professional finish.  The tender coupling does have some wear to it, but still couples to the tender and stays connected without any issues.  The model also has some imperfections in the paint as seen in the photos.  The box is also included, but has quite a bit of wear and the clam shell insert is cracked.  In all this is a very nice piece and would make a great addition for any 1:64 scale or Thomas & Friends collection.

 

I have other Thomas & Friends items for sale on my eBay page, so please take a look.

 

Please read the entire description.  You are responsible for understanding all of the information below.  If you have ANY questions - now is the time to ask, not after you buy!  I believe in great service, and I truly want you to enjoy your buying experience with me.  I also believe this goes both ways and I will make my best effort to ensure your customer experience is a good one!

 

Bidding

My auctions always run for a duration of (10) days.  I ask that if you are going to bid in my auctions, to make sure you have a payment method already in place and can pay within a reasonable time frame once the auction has ended.  My eBay is set up that certain buyer requirements are in place to keep out the riffraff.  Bidders who remove bids, don't pay, or cause any other havoc in my auctions will be blocked, NO EXCEPTIONS!  DO NOT BID IF YOU DON'T INTEND TO PAY!

 

Buy it Now/Best Offer

I request immediate payment for Buy it Now listings.  I am always open to reasonable offers and I strongly encourage buyers to submit them.  If I feel your offer is too low, I will always respond with a counter offer.  It is always my goal to help you as the buyer get the item that you want at a price we are both happy with.

 

Shipping

I always ship within (5) business days after receiving cleared payment.  As I live in a rural area and my nearest post office is (10) miles away, I cannot go there every day.  If you need immediate shipment of an item, please let me know and I will do my best to get your purchase sent out sooner.  Please also understand that once a package leaves my hands, I have no control over how fast it gets delivered.

 

International Shipping

Because of the time and cost to ship items internationally, I no longer offer this shipping option in my listings.  However, if you are serious about purchasing an item and are willing to pay the shipping cost, I can possibly work something out for you.  If this is the case, feel free to send me a message.

 

Payment

Payment is expected within (4) calendar days after purchase.  eBay will automatically cancel the transaction and record the unpaid item on your account once this time expires.  Penalties will be applied to your account for nonpayment.  If you do not pay, the item will be relisted and you will be blocked from future bidding/buying.

 

NO TIME WASTERS PLEASE!

 

Returns/Refunds

Because of issues I've had in the past, I can no longer accept returns on items.  I will however accept a return and pay the shipping cost if I send the wrong item by mistake.  Items damaged in shipping do not count as an item not as described.  Most packages I ship are insured and covered in the event that an item is lost and/or damaged in shipping.

 

Requests /Cases

Please be aware that open requests will count agents a sellers performance for a full (12) months, even when they are resolved quickly and to a buyers satisfaction.  In the event that an item doesn't arrive, is not as described, etc. please send me a message first and wait for a response before opening a request.

 

Feedback

I ask that if you have any problems or you are unhappy with your purchase, to please contact me so I can fix it.  Please do not leave neutral or negative feedback without giving me a chance to resolve any issues you may have.  eBay uses feedback and seller ratings to determine what they charge for seller fees.  I understand that mistakes can happen and I will always do my best to ensure you are 100% satisfied with your purchase.
