If you are happy please remember to left positive feedback and honest number of stars.  Neutral or negative feedback or anything other than 5 stars should not be necessary as we can usually work something out so please read and follow what is stated in this item description completely.

I DO NOT CHARGE FOR PACKING MATERIALS, ETC. AS I RECYCLE AS MUCH AS I CAN.

U.S. Shipping includes delivery confirmation (or insurance # if you choose insurance).

International shipments will have the customs tag # (or registration # if chosen).

I usually ship the first business day after receiving the completed PayPal payment, Monday-Friday (unless it is a holiday) after work. Example: If payment is received Friday, it won’t be shipped until Monday (or Tuesday if Monday is a holiday).

E-checks must wait till cleared into my PayPal account to be considered received.

I cannot be held responsible for the length of time it takes for a package to go from my post office to your hands.  In the real world, First class, media mail and parcel post can take up to two weeks depending on how far away from a major metropolitan area you are.  International shipments can be held up in customs on either side and take as long as it takes once it leaves my hands.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS: Shipping international is now expensive so please verify shipping cost BEFORE bidding. Please read under INTERNATIONAL BUYERS section for other information on other shipping restrictions and fees.

PLEASE USE THE EBAY SHIPPING CALCULATOR

(I cannot post shipping costs because I don’t know where you live or how many items you will be buying).  If it is not working or if you are interested in more than one item please email me via “ask seller question”.  Combined shipping is available on almost everything.  Ebay uses the shipping weight inputted and my zip code 94948 in order to calculate your cost.  Remember, packing materials DO add weight to the item, especially if has to be shipped in a cardboard box.

ALL ITEMS WILL BE SHIPPED AS A PACKAGE

If an envelope is stiff (with cardboard) or bumpy it is considered non-machinable and MUST be mailed as a package.  This increases the cost of shipping to over a dollar.  Nothing can be mailed in a regular envelope for 44 cents.

MEDIA MAIL Only DVDs, CDs and books can be shipped via media mail.

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:

Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges and are the buyer's responsibility.  Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.  These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up – do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. 

We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" or say it is anything other than what it is - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior and may confiscate your package if falsely represented.

Certain items cannot be shipped to certain countries.  Please check your postal service or USPS.com for restricted items.  Please do not bid if the item is restricted in your country.

Certain countries require that certain items be sent only via Registered Mail which adds an additional $11.50 fee (for example, jewelry to Canada).  You may check with your postal service or on USPS.com for restrictions listed for your country.

For any electrical or formatted item, make sure you can use it in your country before buying.
