————-SERVICE NOTES———

NOTES:

- Yes I combine shipping where possible.

- Don’t like a price? Then make an offer. Plz don’t insult me with it though.

- All my comics are well taken care of. I routinely place my books immediately in bag (or mylite) and board, even if I plan to read them.

- All comics and figures are stored in Smoke and vape-free home, with no exposure to sun, and humidity/temperature extremes

- Items are stored in a controlled finished lower level. In some cases, books are not even read and placed straight into safe storage.

—Overpayments on shipping are refunded after i print label. I try to keep shipping prices low but comics are heavy so plz understand. I’m open to your preference though—save $ and risk bumpier ride or pay a little more for Priority. I default to Ground Transport.

I’ve learned a lot from earlier mistakes and have not received neg feedback in over a year; even the ones I did get as a beginner seller were defensible and in all cases customer received full refund PLUS the items that were shipped…there is a “garage sale” culture element on eBay I’ve noticed, where Some people don’t want to pay anywhere near the value of items and are impossible to please. I won’t go further than to say I’m a better seller than my rating and have had 100% positive feedback for the last year +.

- I do these sales to supplement income and help make ends meet. If you win an auction, prompt payment is appreciated. It takes 48 hours to get access so plz keep this in mind as a courtesy.

- If you make me an offer and you get a discount, please understand I’m going along with it with the assumption you can pay right away. I feel that’s not too much to ask.

- This is supposed to be eBay, not a garage sale. Seems like a subgroup of people don’t want to pay even close to what items are worth. Plz make an offer but don’t be insulting is all I ask.

Plz check my feedback on past comic lots to verify that want you see is what you get.

I ship quickly and often upgrade to Priority mail free of extra charge. There are many happy customers who have purchased similar lots! I’m a one-person operation/collector, not a dedicated business. However, I still strive for excellent customer service and even while learning lessons earlier on, nobody has ever been “ripped off” and the worst anyone ever received was the items themselves PLUS their full money back.
