To be sold as a collector's item or conversation piece and sold as is.  

I am not a dealer; I need to let go of a lifetime of collecting.
This is a vintage item therefore it will be carefully boxed, and I recommend insured. A handling charge of $3 will be adding to the final value to cover packing materials and transportation.

If your package is lost or damaged and you have not paid for insurance it is your loss.

International Bidders Please Note:
If you are interested in other items and want to do a group shipment, I am glad to work with you to repackage this item. This item is small and light, so it could be shipped via Small Flat Rate Box International, however this service does not allow for insurance to all overseas destinations.
All items are packed very carefully, but I have no control over how they are handled during shipment. If your package is lost or damaged and you have not paid for insurance it is your loss.  I declare the purchase amount on custom forms. I will not declare a lower value or gift.

This item cannot be returned, it is to sell as is.  
If you have any questions, please contact me via eBay.
