Acceptable forms of payment include money orders/cashier checks, Paypal (separate payments for multiple items will have the payments refunded and a single payment request made to save on fees) and checks (US dollar accounts only).
This item is intended for all audiences and may therefore be sold to, used or viewed by minors.
If eBay's pre-filled additional information is included in this listing and you are bidding on this auction solely based upon specific edition or release information contained within that information (and not just because you just want a copy of the book or video), please e-mail me to confirm that the edition/version information is correct... eBay is notorious for including incorrect ISBN, UPC and/or edition information and I would hate for you to bid based on a description that was correct when I originally listed it, but is incorrect after eBay changed it in their system (they make "improvements" on the information several times a week).
