IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: UPDATE MAY 1st 2024

!!PLEASE CHECK THE NOTE ADDED TO THE SHIPPING RATES SECTION.

INVOICING ISSUES:

- Recent Ebay changes are causing issues when invoicing more than 40 items:
- Once you have more than 40 items (or multiples of 40) additional items can no longer be combined in an invoice.
- Please make payment for all items (invoiced or not) together as I will have adjusted shipping on the invoice in such a way that the total shipping charged will be correct. If not I will refund you the balance.

- Because of these issues payment must be made once you have purchased over 40 items total.

We will do our best to ship your items as fast and secure as possible but please understand that we can not be held responsible for any delays in the delivery of your items. Registered shipping is strongly advised for all shipments, untracked shipments are sent at your risk.

By placing a bid on our items you agree with our terms of sale and shipping rates. Bids are final, cancellation requests made after the end of an auction are not accepted!

Shipping will be done by the Belgian or German Post depending on size, destination and weight of the shipment.
