We welcome all new members to the eBay community and to our auctions. We do ask if you have less than 15 in feedback, to kindly send us an email prior to bidding or buying.

In addition to many photographs, we strive to provide detailed listings, accurately describing the condition of each item and disclosing any flaws. Despite these efforts, we are all unique and so too our perception of colour and condition. Kindly read each listing thoroughly and examine all photographs carefully. If you still have concerns or worry the item may fail to meet your expectations, remember to ask your questions before bidding or buying and not after the listing has ended.
