Please keep in mind that most items I sell are old and vintage so there may be some things like odors, or light soiling that might be on the item (mostly cloth and paper items). i do try to point out problems that i notice, but please ask questions before you purchase something if this is a concern to you an I will personally check on an item for you. I dont smoke, or have any pets, so there usually wont be those type of odors with the items i sell.
I offer no returns so please use your mode very best judgement when bidding on this item :D
buy more and save just mail the items you are interested in. i will mail you back a better price, and combine shipping for a lower price, or maybe even free shipping. it really depends on if i can fit all the items you want into the same box :)
Please, make payment by Paypal in a timely manner, or an automatic non-payment case is opened by Ebay after so many days. if Ebay closes the case because you didnt pay, an I didnt get one email from you explaining your side of the situation, then Im sorry to report you will be blocked from all my listings :(
Shipping - items paid for on friday will not be shipped until monday or tuesday. the price of shipping is based on the weight and sometimes supplies. i never charge handling fees i make enough money from the actual items that i sell, there is no need for any extra charges.
all items are dropped off by me at the post office. im not in control of post office, or how fast they deliver something. what i am in control of is making sure your item goes out within 3 working days, which means weekends and holidays are excluded from that from that 3 day window;
i usually dont post feedback immediately after a sale. i know its important, and very rare i dont leave feedback for a customer. just be patient youll get it :)
below are key words and policies of descriptions.
band new items still in the package and never opened are listed as used. i usually dont sell brand new items you can go and buy at the store today, but if i do they will also be listed as used. in the description i will type new or like new condition.
all problems like chips, cracks, manufacturing flaws, and repairs will be listed in the description if it isnt, then there arent any. i do look the items over before i ship, so i can inform the customer that maybe i missed something. or something happened to the item after the listing was made. some of my listings are very old, which means ive had the item for awhile, and they may have gotten dinged while being stored (very rare). usually in a case like that i will offer a discount to you before i ship the item, or i will cancel the sale. its important for you to look over all the photos, and read the description.
i use inches when sizing up items. it may not be exact, but it will be close to the number in the description.
some items like clocks, and watches are sold as is. which means you are buying the item with no returns. but dont be scared because i am fair and if something is wrong that wasnt in the description i may let you return it. just communicate with me your concerns.
if you get your item and i did missed something like a chip, and it isnt in the photos, or description. im more than willing to give a small discount, or let you return the item with me paying for the return shipping. just let me know and ill let you know how i want to handle it. i do base prices on condition and rarity of items, and sometimes the price would have been the same even with a little ding (most of the time i will give some kind of pricing discount). sometimes items are bought as gifts, or you like things perfect in your collection and a discount wont do. i have no problem with returns under those circumstances just mail me with a photo or two explaining the problems with the item.
i ship a lot of glass and breakable items. i do my absolute best to get that type of item to you in one piece. i have bought things that have arrived broken, and know its very disappointing.
if i know or have an idea of the year i will post it in the listing, but here are some key words i usually use:
old = 50s - 80s
vintage = 90s - present
antique = things that are close to or over 100 years (up to 1940s)
sometimes i use words like art deco, art nouveau, or mid century those are just a style, or era. most of the time it will be from that era.
bottom line i sell collectible items that many people want. what i want from you is for you to be happy with your purchase. dont get mad just communicate and we will come to a fair agreement :)
