I accept PayPal, Cashier's checks, Money orders and personal checks, which will have to clear the bank before I will ship your item. Communication within 3 days and payment due within 7 days, please, or item will be re-listed or given to another bidder as Second Offer.
I do charge a $5.00 fee for International shipping. This is to cover all the costs for shipping supplies and doing the necessary paperwork for Customs. I do declare the full value of the items on the Customs Forms and item is marked as "OTHER". All International Shipping is sent Priority International and includes around $70 worth of insurance. Insurance is required on ALL International shipping. International Buyers MUST have an established PayPal account. PayPal is the only accepted form of payment for International Buyers. Please e-mail me BEFORE you bid regarding any shipping and handling costs.
The Post Office has raised their rates and now charge extra for larger boxes, so if you have won a large item, you may have to pay a small additional fee. If shipping charges are less than what is quoted, I am happy to refund any overages through PayPal.
I'm more than happy to combine shipping if you win more than one auction. Please email me if you are planning on bidding or purchasing more than one item, and please wait for your invoice before paying. Sometimes with combined shipping, the size of the box changes, adding possible additional charges, as mentioned above.
I ship USPS Parcel Post to save you money in shipping costs. Shipping time is 2-9 days. If you would like me to send your item Priority Mail, which takes 2-4 days, and costs a little more, please email to let me know, after the auction has ended.
Insurance is optional. However, due to the fact that I have had items break in the past, I must tell you that if you don't get insurance, I can no longer be held responsible for damage or breakage. I take great care in packing, however, on occasion, accidents happen in transit. Please let me know if you would like insurance. If you do have an item that arrives broken, please save all of your packing material, as the Post Office requires that when filing a claim.
Shipping insurance, if selected or required, is based upon the winning bid for that auction - the table lists the insurance costs based upon dollar value:
Fee . . . . . . . . Insurance Coverage $1.65................ $0.01 to $50 $2.05 ................ $50.01 to $100 $2.45 ................ $100.01 to $200 $4.60 ................ $200.01 to $300 $5.50 ................ $300.01 to $400 $6.40 ................ $400.01 to $500
$7.30................. $500.01 to $600
$7.30 plus $.90 per $100 or fraction thereof over $600 to $5,000.
Due to unfortunate transactions with International Buyers, I am changing my policy regarding shipping. If you are interested in the item, you need to be able to communicate in English. Otherwise, please do not bid on my items.
Positive Feedback is an important asset to have on eBay. I pride myself in having 100% Positive Feedback and strive to continue to do so. Please leave feedback after receiving your item and I will then do the same. If you are dissatisfied for any reason, email me so that I can attempt to make things right before leaving neutral or negative feedback. It is my goal to ALWAYS have satisfied customers!
Refunds gladly accepted. If for some reason you are not happy with your item, you may return it for a full refund (less shipping costs). Please let me know by email and please return it within 4 days of receiving it, insured for its full value.
Thanks for looking and good luck bidding! |
