DUTCH AUCTION or FIXED PRICE Multiple Item CONDITION: I am selling items from an old toy distributor warehouse. I am selling in many cases MULTIPLES of the same item in a single listing (in auction format, EBAY calls this a Dutch Auction, read rules below). Since we are dealing with VINTAGE items, not every item will have the EXACT condition flaws (if any) as the one pictured. However, the general overall condition of all items in the same auction will be the same. If I grade items in the auction EXCELLENT, then any item you will receive from that auction will be in EXCELLENT condition although it may not match exactly condition-wise with the one shown in the photo. In short, you will receive an EXCELLENT example of what is shown in the photo. If you cannot accept the way I am doing this, please do not bid. I am a careful and meticulous grader.
PLEASE NOTE-following info applies to DUTCH AUCTIONS ONLY(a Dutch auction is when I am selling IN AUCTION FORMAT multiples of the same item: quantity=2 or more):
CLICK HERE to familiarize yourself with the Dutch Auction rules as they work DIFFERENTLY than a normal auction! The most notable difference being: for example,if quantity=5 AND if you bid $35 on ALL FIVE of the items and win all five, even if the next lowest bidder is only $20 OR even if there is no other bidder at all, you will still pay $35 each. ITEM DESCRIPTION:
PLEASE NOTE_you are bidding on one item only--see title! All items are unused but may show some minor wear with a minor edge split. OVERALL EXCELLENT condiiton. I am offering a large group of unused 70s-80s children's Halloween masks from a party supply store I bought out in the early 90s.

If you buy multiple items from me, I do combine shipping.
MY PHOTOS-frequently my photos show multiple items. Unless otherwise stated, these items are in SEPARATE listings!
PAYMENT-General Info
PAYMENTS- USA ($175+ see below PAYPAL E-CHECK info) PLEASE do not use EBAY request total. I normally invoice within 24 hours. I accept PAYPAL and VISA/MASTERCARD credit cards (through my own credit card processor on $100+ orders only please). You can email, fax or call in your credit card info. Illinois residents add 7.25% sales tax. I usually try to invoice you through the EBAY system BUT sometimes I need to invoice you directly to your personal email address SO adjust your email or SPAM settings accordingly please.
PAYMENT-FOREIGN ORDERS ($110+ see below PAYPAL E-CHECK info)
(for postage estimates, see SHIPPING-FOREIGN below)
PAYPAL payments over $175 (USA buyers) and $110 (foreign buyers)
If you win an item (or items) totaling over $175 (USA buyers) or $110 (foreign buyers) on EBAY, PLEASE consider using the E-CHECK method of paying as it saves me being charged fees over $5 for a single transaction. For example, a $500 order paid through PAYPAL will cost me about $16. But an E-CHECK has a maximum fee of $5.....even if the order is for $4500 ! The E-CHECK takes 2-4 days to clear in the USA, a little longer for foreign. If needed, I can explain to you how to pay with the PAYPAL E-CHECK. An E-CHECK cannot be paid with a credit card, only a bank account.
SHIPPING & INSURANCE
SHIPPING-USA
I PACK VERY WELL. I HAVE BEEN AN ANTIQUE AND COLLECTIBLE MAIL ORDER DEALER FOR 30+ YEARS.
As a rule, unless item is fairly small, light, and cheap, minimum shipping and insurance is $8.50 in the USA. It is very rare that an item can be shipped for under $5.00 in the USA.
I will try to be flexible (within reason) regarding shipping method BUT generally, I ship items INSURED
- a) under $300 with the Post Office via Priority Mail
- b) $300-1000 within the USA via UPS (insured) only. So, PLEASE DO NOT BID unless you can provide a street address for UPS or have made arrangements with me otherwise BEFORE the auction!
- c) over $1000 to $25,000 with Post Office Registered Mail (insured)
SHIPPING-FOREIGN Here are sample foreign postage rates (does NOT include insurance) to the following countries:
Australia, Brazil, Europe, Japan, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, UK: 1 pound box- $11, 2 pound box-$17, 3 pound box-$24 Canada: 1 pound box- $6, 2 pound box-$10, 3 pound box-$14
I PACK VERY WELL. I HAVE BEEN AN ANTIQUE AND COLLECTIBLE MAIL ORDER DEALER FOR 30+ YEARS.
PLEASE NOTE: Please do not bid unless you are prepared to pay for these charges. I do not give refunds for uninsured items lost in shipping. So far this has only happened once in 10 years. =====================================================================
INSURANCE- I have an insurance policy with Collectibles Insurance Services, Hunt Valley, MD which covers my insurance on outgoing packages so you might, in some cases, see no evidence of insurance (tags, bar code stickers, shipping cost, etc) on the actual shipping box even though you paid me for insurance. That's because you are paying for MY insurance, not the US Post Office's.

SELLER INFO Offered by DAVID WELCH author of COLLECTING PEZ 1995 and Pictorial Guide to Plastic Candy Dispensers 1991. You will notice that the very few negative feedbacks I have received in over 10+ years are from:
1-non-paying bidders who retaliated for me giving them a negative first 2-sellers who RETALIATED after I left them a negative (for selling me a bad item or giving extremely poor service) 3-those rare people who seem to never be satisfied no matter what you do 4-the occasional random psycho 5-people who do not READ the description or terms of my auctions
If you have questions about any negatives I have received, feel free to email me and ask.
HOW I HANDLE FEEDBACK If I am the seller, I give feedback AFTER the buyer does. Why? When the buyer leaves me positive feedback, it indicates they are satisfied and the deal is completed. I ALWAYS give return feedback in such cases. If I am the buyer, I leave feedback first and hope you will do the same. I do not beg, pester or threaten people over feedback and would appreciate the same from you.
THANK YOU TO THE PATIENT AND REALISTIC PEOPLE WHO MAKE 98% of EBAY DEALINGS A PLEASURE. =============================================================================
