Communication is key here folks!

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PRIOR TO BIDDING OR ASKING QUESTIONS.

If, after reading the below you still have questions – please feel free to ask **prior to bidding**.

***FIRST THINGS FIRST.

Most of my auctions deal with vintage, near antique or antique items. Any item of age will show signs of use, some more than others. Please be aware that *none* of the items I have up for auction are in mint condition *unless* otherwise noted. I inspect items to the best of my ability and include the points that I feel should be mentioned [obvious scratches, cracks, dents, chips, etc of that nature] but I am only human. It should be assumed by the consumer that, unless otherwise noted, there will be signs of normal use that comes with age on any/all items - *unless* otherwise noted.

I am not an expert on any of the items I have up for auction, but I do perform as much research as possible about each and every item. Please read on for the rest of the story.....

***Payment method.
I accept PayPal only. This payment method is the safest for both you and I.

Please be sure to verify the shipping address that paypal has, because that is the address I will be shipping to.I cannot be held responsible for a wrong or incorrect address.

***Terms.
I expect items to be paid for within 7 days of end of auction, unless buyer notifies me of intent to purchase another item I have up for auction, or of an issue or delay with payment.

By placing your bid on this item, you hereby agree to purchase this item at the pricing and terms listed. If you're unsure about the policies, please contact me before bidding.

I reserve the right to place the item for sale if the terms laid out here are not met.

***Item Descriptions.
I do my very best to describe items honestly, to the best of my ability and knowledge about each item. I research each piece to find out as much as I can to put in the description. If you have knowledge about an item I have for sale, please feel free to provide it to me.

As stated in first paragraph, I gladly welcome any questions about the item.

***Packaging.
Shipping insurance is mandatory and I have included it into the cost of shipping the item. But we all know the best insurance is the packaging and I make every effort to ensure safe delivery by good packaging.

I recycle boxes/paper/plastic/cardboard whenever possible, bubble wrap and peanuts are typically new.I double on packaging for fragile items.

This is added weight to the product folks, but ensures safe delivery to your door. Packing materials cost money and other packing materials that are recycled materials cost in weight. Please remember that when you purchase something from me, receive your breakable item in good order, and then leave feedback for me. I am certainly NOT getting rich on shipping costs!! But the post office may be.;)

***Shipping.
If you purchase more than one item from me, I will combine the items for shipping to arrive at the lowest shipping cost. Please check for my other listings.

Items are shipped within 5-7 [business] days of payment [usually sooner than the 5 days, but definitely by the 7th day]. If I incur issues shipping within that timeframe, I will notify the buyer ASAP.

***After the sale.
IF AN ITEM ARRIVES DAMAGED, BROKEN, OR IN A CONDITION OTHER THAN DESCRIBED, PLEASE KEEP ALL PACKAGING AND PAPERWORK AND CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY.

No returns due to buyers remorse. However, returns are performed if an item is found to be in a condition substantially other than as described, unless otherwise stated in the above product description.

Thank you for viewing my auction items!!
