OK, now here is the not so fun part . . . . .Notification of how and when you intend to pay for your auction is expected within 24 hours after the auction. . . . . . .Payment is expected within 7 days after auction end with notification. If I do not here from you , I will assume that you will not be paying, and unfortunately have to file a no pay with ebay. I wait until the last minute for that of course, because I just hate to do that. . . . I accept and prefer Paypal as a method of payment. Through paypal you can use instant pay with your savings, checking, or credit card. . . . . .I also accept personal checks. I have to wait until they clear until I ship unless you are a repeat customer. This takes sometimes 7 to 10 days. I ship as soon as my bank says it is clear. . . . . . .I only accept PayPal for international shipping.
Shipping is calculated according to weight from my zip code to yours. I do combine shipping, and will hold packages for 7 days, or more if you contact me with your intent. If I invoice you by accident, simply just email me and tell me to wait and combine shipping. Sometimes these things are automated, and I have no control. As I become more experienced, I won't have as many "accidents". Hawaii and Alaska, please contact me for shipping amount before bidding has ended.I will need your zip code.
NOTE FROM POSTAL SERVICE: Sellers cannot be held responsible for service transit time. This information is provided to the seller by the carrier and excludes weekends and holidays. Transit times may vary, particularly during peak periods. Regular domestic mail can take up to two weeks, media mail can take up to six weeks, and international mail can take even longer to deliver. . . . . . . . . So the important thing here is communication and patience. If you think that a package has taken too long. Email me through ebay. I will get right on it and find out what the delay is. USPS does not provide tracking points like Fed Ex or UPS, so they can only tell if something has been delivered. They can however track back through their system, and my mail carrier can help me with it. Just stay in touch!
All International winners of auctions and buy it now items, contact me prior to paying anything. Shipping is not calculated for you. I will send you an invoice at the end of the auction after I calculate my exact cost. I will not tell untruths on customs forms. I will have to charge extra handling fees because of the way international packages are handled and packaged. Please contact me at least 3 days prior to end of auction for shipping quotes outside of United States if you need to know prior to bidding. Thank you so much!
Insurance is optional and not required unless specified. I highly recommend that you add insurance to your purchase when using USPS, but it is up to you. My packaging is great, and I do not forsee anything happening to the item, I just don't know if the shipping company will lose it or not. Also, handing something to the mail service provider, is like handing china to a gorilla on steroids. Sometimes no matter how well it is packed, they still think that a 400 pound box can sit on top of it. Watch them sometime, it is some of the best comedy, unless they just took your customers package. Just thought you needed to know. I prefer UPS, but sometimes that just is not the most economical. I do give you the choices. Let me know what you choose. |
