We’re very happy to combine S&H on multiple purchases, so be sure to check out our other auctions to save on shipping. A required $2 Insurance coverage & Tracking fee will also be added to your total. This used to be optional, but there are way too many people out there who will say they accept the risk of shipping, then expect us to be responsible when it's lost. This is truly one case where a few bad apples have ruined something for everyone. If you disagree with this policy, be sure to check our feedback and give those guilty parties a piece of your mind. We're certainly not experts on any type of item. Most of our items are Estate fresh and we describe them as best we can, but we're only giving our opinion. If you have any questions or concerns, be sure to ask before bidding to come to your own opinion, as all items are sold Untested, As Is, and As Found. We only accept returns if the item was grossly misdescribed. We want you to be happy with the item you receive. If for some reason you are unhappy, please contact us immediately, before leaving feedback. There are too many people who jump to leaving a negative feedback rather than contacting the seller about a problem and there is no place for that type of behavior on Ebay. All questions and concerns will be addressed during normal business hours of Monday - Friday 9 am to 5pm EST. At the conclusion of the auction, you will be sent an invoice with complete payment instructions. Thank You for your business and Good Luck!
