About us:  Thank you for viewing our auction.  “The54store” is not a business.  We are just a couple who enjoy selling a variety of items in their spare time.    Most of our items are perfect for collecting, investments or gifts.  If you are the lucky bidder, we expect payment within 5 days of close of auction.    Most of our auctions are NO RESERVE so you can really save big !!.  We are proud of our feedback and want you to be happy with your item, so please ask all questions before you bid.  We try to describe our auction items the best that we can and point out any imperfections.  We also take great care in shipping or mailing your item.  Any display props (stands, hangers,

 etc ) pictured are NOT included in the sale unless mentioned in description.  Clothing and like items will be shipped in the smallest box possible to save you on shipping costs.  Items may arrive wrinkled due to this.  Our photos are always of the exact item(s) you will receive.  All item measurements are considered approximate.

Domestic Shipping:   We are always happy to combine shipping charges on multiple purchases within 3 days.  Just please let us know that you are bidding on another item or that you have purchased other items so we don’t send an incorrect invoice.  After completing all your purchases, DO NOT pay for them.  Just send us an e-mail stating you have made multiple purchases and we will adjust the shipping charges and send you a correct invoice with the shipping discount. 

International Shipping:  We are happy to ship international but cannot ship to Countries that the Unites States has a conflict with.  Due to USPS international shipping policies, we are only able to track packages if you choose the “Express Shipping” option, although we will be happy to ship via any shipping class you choose.  Since we are unable to track “First Class or Priority” mail, we will not be responsible for your packages’ arrival; therefore no refunds will be given if your item does not arrive.
