WHY A PRIVATE AUCTION? THIS FORM OF AUCTION PROTECTS THE BIDDERS AND THE BUYER’S PRIVACY. IT PREVENTS BIDDERS FROM BEING CONTACTED BY OTHER SELLERS OR BIDDERS. THE SOLE PURPOSE IS THE PROTECTION OF BIDDERS AND THE BUYER.
I WILL COMBINE SHIPPING IF YOU PURCHASE MORE THAN ONE ITEM.
INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS – PLEASE NOTE:
· IMPORT DUTIES, TAXES AND CUSTOM CHARGES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE ITEM PRICE OR SHIPPING CHARGES. THESE CHARGES ARE THE BUYER'S RESPONSIBILITY.
· PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR COUNTRY'S CUSTOMS OFFICE TO DETERMINE WHAT THESE ADDITIONAL COSTS WILL BE PRIOR TO BIDDING/BUYING.
· THESE CHARGES ARE NORMALLY COLLECTED BY THE DELIVERING FREIGHT (SHIPPING) COMPANY OR WHEN YOU PICK THE ITEM UP – DO NOT CONFUSE THESE CHARGES FOR ADDITIONAL SHIPPING CHARGES.
ITALIAN BIDDERS – PLEASE NOTE:
Of late, the Italian Post Office System and/or Italian Customs has been loosing or delaying items quite a bit. Therefore, I can no longer send items to Italy via International First Class Mail without a Certificate of Mailing which costs an additional $1.10. THE OTHER AND RECOMMENDED METHODS OF SHIPMENT TO ITALY WILL EITHER BE VIA PRIORITY MAIL (AGAIN WITH CERTIFICATE OF MAILING) OR VIA REGISTERED FIRST CLASS MAIL. DO NOT PAY FOR ITEMS UNTIL YOU RECEIVE AN INVOICE AS THE SHIPPING AMOUNT SHOWN IN THE AUCTION WILL NOT BE CORRECT FOR SHIPMENTS TO ITALY. I am sorry about this, but it is a problem that is Italian and all blame should be on the Italian system.
