I'm going to be listing an AMAZING COLLECTION of vintage manuals this week. They are fresh from an estate sale, the owner used the books in his machine shop / garage. That said, they may have a name written on them, dog-eared pages, wear to the cover, stains/smudges from normal handling. Most are vintage 1940s, 1950s and 1960s; some are newer. Please see all my auctions to have a chance at some these FANTASTIC old volumes.



Hey, thanks for taking the time to visit my auction. I'm a stay-at-home mom trying to make extra income on eBay. I have been selling (and buying) since 1999 and truly enjoy the eBay experience. Because I am not an expert in any field, I may omit something which is of importance to you. Please feel free to ask specific questions about the item you are interested in. We are a non-smoking household with one cat. That said, many items are from tag sales, thrift stores, estate sales, etc. and I am not the original owner. I will certainly describe any detectable odors.

My shipping charges are based upon many factors (the time it takes me to do the description, size of the item and the amount of packing materials it will require for it to be "Post Office Proof," gasoline for the car, tape/envelopes, and my time, etc.) and feel that the shipping charges are very fair, so please don't ask me to participate in the "exact postage campaign." Note: eBay has now started charging sellers a 10% final value fee on shipping charges! Payment must be received within 3 days of the close of the auction. If no contact is made from buyer within 48 hours of auction end, item may be relisted or offered to another bidder.

Thank you for your interest in my auction, good luck should you decide to bid.  Peace, Lisa
