This auction is for a very nice looking Musima zither from the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). I don't know anything about these instruments, but this zither looks like it is in very good condition. It could use a light cleaning for the accumulated dust and also a tuning. All strings are there and tuning pegs seem to be in order. It does need new rubber pads for the feet on the back side. This is a large instrument at 18 1/2" x 22" and it weighs 8 1/4 pounds unpacked. It looks great with the floral design. There are a few small paint chips on the edges, but nothing major. This will have to be shipped by either USPS parcel post or UPS ground shipping.

For payment, we prefer Paypal, but will accept bank cashier's checks or POSTAL money orders (from the Post Office only). There will be a small handling fee ($1.00 - $2.00 depending on the item) included in my shipping prices to make up for ever rising expenses. We try our best to keep prices down and affordable to all who shop on our auctions. Please use the calculator below for shipping/handling charges to your area. The price reflected includes the handling charge.

PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING:

**WE DO NOT ACCEPT OFFERS OUTSIDE THE REGULAR BIDDING PROCESS OF EBAY. It is against eBay’s rules and unfair to all bidders!! WE ALSO DO NOT OFFER BUY IT NOW ON ANY OF OUR ITEMS. We will NOT reveal any reserves during the auction.

**ALL AUCTION SALES ARE SOLD 'AS IS', most of the time in secondhand condition. Please check our feedback record. If item is not as advertised, we will refund final auction price, less shipping, on return of item in "as sold" condition. We do NOT refund for items that do not fit. Usually there are plenty of measurements in our descriptions. If you need more, please email with plenty of time before auction end and we will get back with you. We want all of our customers to be satisfied with their purchases and to continue to follow our auctions.

** Payment may be made with Paypal, bank cashier's check or POSTAL money order only. WE WILL NOT ACCEPT PERSONAL CHECKS, POSTAGE STAMPS OR MONEY ORDERS OTHER THAN THE POST OFFICE. There has been way too much fraud. Communication is key between buyers and sellers. If either payment and/or communication is not attained within 5 days of end of auction, a reminder notice will be sent. If payment has not been received within 8 days, a "non-paying" bidders report will be filed with Ebay and negative feedback will be left. PLEASE HONOR ALL BIDS!

**ARIZONA residents must pay 8.55% sales tax.

**OUT OF COUNTRY BIDDERS - MUST EMAIL BEFORE BIDDING for shipping methods & prices with handling fees. First Class International or Priority International are the only ways we ship. Paypal is the only accepted method of payment.
