Shipping:  The shipping cost includes delivery confirmation.  Any item selling for more than $100 will also require signature confirmation because eBay is working hard to make the experience a pain in the butt for both sellers and buyers (who now need to be there to sign for their packages or pick them up at the post office).  Hey, its their way of protecting you!   I ship most items via USPS Priority Mail.  This means it will be expensive if you live in Canada or Australia.  I use FedEx for some larger items.  Note that eBay does not provide a shipping calculator for FedEx.  The UPS cost on the calculator will be close but wait for your invoice before sending payment so I can provide the exact shipping cost.  I will need your daytime phone number for FedEx home delivery. 

Payment:  You'll be sent an eBay invoice after the auction ends.  Please use the checkout feature after you have received your invoice.  You will find general information on my auction policies on my page.

Please keep in mind that this is not a business.  I sell on eBay to fund my hobby.  All items are sold as-is with no returns.  If you have a problem with that, don't bid.  I pack very well and don't rape people on "handling fees".  I usually ship within 3-5 days of payment, but sometimes it takes a bit longer.  Some more valuable items will have an insurance cost figured into the shipping amount.  Pleasant inquiries are welcome if you are concerned about the status of an item.  Psychotic rants about priority mail transit time and so forth will probably be ignored.
