Greetings and WELCOME! to the…
Item for sale... ~ Antique QUEEN ANNE ROCKER ~
Here's a sweet old ladies rocking chair. It probably dates to the early 1900's. It's a late Victorian Queen Anne stylized arm chair. It's made of solid hard wood maple and still has the original analine dye mahogany stained finish. The finish shows wear in some areas from everyday use but it just adds character. The chair has some really nice details such as the finely turned spindles, stretchers and legs. The back support is a "T-Back" style with added scroll cut designs. The chair is contoured in all the right places so it is sure to be very comfortable. The contoured arms are perfectly fitted for a ladies small hands and the contoured seat is sure to be comfy for many hours of wistful sitting and contemplating. This genuine antique is in excellent condition with no damage or repairs that I could find. It's ready to go to a good home and provide many more years of rocking pleasure. It would be perfect as a nursing rocker. It will fit almost anywhere and look terrific no matter what the setting. Bid now before ya forget about it or get sniped at the end of the auction. There's no reserve so one bid buys it! Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!
The chair measures 32" inches high, 24" wide and about 28" inches deep. The seat height from the floor is about 15" inches. The width of the seat is about 16" inches and about 16" inches deep. Estimated weight is 45 pounds when packed.

Freight shipping is another option available to ship anywhere in the country and it might be cheaper. You can contact www.plyconvanlines.com for more information about long distance shipping.

SEVERAL things to consider before you place a bid…
Do you have a question about something?
Ask FIRST, before you bid and please read the info below under "SHIPPING TIMES".
1. SHIPPING COSTS...
BUYERS WITHIN THE CONTINENTAL U.S.
Local pickup is not only welcome but also free at my place in Eagleville, PA (19403). I may be able to deliver for a fee within 100 miles or so. Please email in advance for more info. I can also make this item available for pickup in the Northern Tier area of PA just North of Mansfield 16946 for a fee.
Shipping large items beyond my local area will be at the buyers request and you will have to make arrangements yourself. Try contacting www.PlyconVanLines.com for a shipping quote. I have used them in the past with success. They will ship door to door anywhere in the country. You will have to deal directly with them and any payments for shipping would go directly to them. In the event of any damage or loss you will have to deal directly with them also. I have no affiliation with any shipping company. The pickup zip code will be 19403. Measurements are listed above in the item description. I can be available almost any day to meet them for the pickup.
I normally ship small items with the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) and include delivery confirmation. Larger items will generally ship via United Parcel Service (UPS) ground. Large items such as furniture will have to ship freight with a shipper such as Plycon Van Lines. Where applicable please use the shipping calculator to enter your postal zip code and get a shipping quote to your location. Shipping and handling costs will be whatever the calculator indicates. I do my best to keep shipping costs to a minimum but nothing is cheap these days. Packing materials, rising gas costs, my time, travel expense and actual shipping fees are all real factors in determining a fair shipping price. The software on eBay does NOT always give an accurate quote, especially on oversized items. Items are NOT prepackaged or weighed. Many times there will be additional surcharges applied by the shipping company once the item is actually packed and shipped. The quote given here is merely a guide and should not be considered binding. I'm only human and sometimes I screw up. I occasionally fail to enter accurate specs into the calculator which may cause an invalid shipping quote. If the cost seems unusually high or low please email me so I can check it to be sure it's correct. If I find that I mistakenly entered the wrong information I'll make any needed adjustments and send a corrected invoice. I can't ship at a loss just because of a simple human mistake.
BUYERS OUTSIDE THE CONTINENTAL U.S.
No shipping beyond the lower 48 states on this item.
2. INSURANCE…
Due to new rules on ebay all items being shipped will now be INSURED. The cost for insurance is included in the shipping charges. Insurance is NO LONGER optional! Please note that I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE for any loss or damage to any item once it leaves my hands! That's what insurance is for! I always pack with extreme care but I will not assume responsibility for any items damaged or lost once it leaves my hands. I will file a claim with the appropriate shipper in the event of any damage or loss and any monies recieved as a result of that claim will be refunded to the buyer.
3. SHIPPING TIMES... VERY IMPORTANT!
Please pay attention here. I normally travel several days a week and am frequently out of town on other business for up to a week at a time. As such, I am NOT able to pick up my mail on a daily basis nor am I able to ship on a daily basis. I usually ship once or twice a week but it varies depending on my schedule. I don't always have access to a computer to check emails or answer questions but I do my best to answer inquiries ASAP. If you send me a note and don't get an answer right away I'm probably out of town. I do the best I can to ship items quickly but depending on when I get your payment, the type of payment you send and a number of other variables, it will normally be about 1-2 weeks after the auction ends before you receive your item. Email me in advance if you need a rush on something. If you're in a big hurry and don't have the patience to wait then please do us both a favor and shop with another seller. I'm only one person and this is not my entire life. Thank's for understanding.
4. PAYMENTS…
YOUR PAYMENT MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 5 DAYS!
I may cancel the sale and sell the item to another bidder or relist it if I don’t receive your payment within 5 days from auctions end! I always file a report on non paying bidders.
All payments must be made in U.S. dollars. Buyers planning to pick up an item in person can pay in cash provided it's within 5 days. Otherwise you'll need to pay in advance of pick up. I RELUCTANTLY accept PayPal but ONLY because ebay is now FORCING sellers to accept it. So much for FREE ENTERPRISE in the USA. If you would like to use some other method to make payment then just send me an email and I'll be happy to oblige.
NOTE... There will be a $30 charge for any bounced or other returned deposited payments.
5. SALES TAX... PA residents pay 6% sales tax. Also, anyone that picks an item up in person will have to pay PA sales tax regardless of where you live. This will normally only affect people buying large furniture items that can't be shipped out of state but it applies to anyone picking up an item in person.
6. STORAGE... This generally applies to large items that are too big to ship but includes any item a buyer intends to pick up in person. I am more than willing to keep things for a short period of time (2 weeks) until you can pick up your item. However, unless we have agreed on other arrangements in advance I will begin charging storage fees after 2 weeks on things that haven't been picked up at the rate of $1 a day. Items left unclaimed for 45 days or more after the auctions end will be resold and any monies paid by the buyer will be forfeited.
7. FEEDBACK… Pretty simple... Your feedback will get mine. I certainly appreciate positive feedback and will leave positive feedback in return once I receive yours. If there's a problem of any kind just email me and allow me the opportunity to correct the issue before you resort to leaving negative or neutral feedback. That isn't going to help. I'll do my best to keep a happy customer if you just give me the chance. I encourage all buyers to leave a 5 star rating on the DSR panel in order to help me keep my account in good standing with ebay and allow me to continue to offer great deals on quality merchandise.
DO YOU REALLY KNOW HOW FEEDBACK WORKS ON EBAY?
The rediculous new rules ebay has adopted concerning feedback have made it almost impossible to remain a seller in good standing. Ebay now "REQUIRES" sellers to maintain a star rating on the detailed feedback panel GREATER than 4 stars or the sellers listings can be canceled, the seller will be charged higher fees, the sellers accounts can be suspended or even terminated. This is simply unfair. It is IMPERATIVE that buyers realize how crucial these star ratings are for sellers and act responsibly. Leaving anything less than a full 5 star rating can have long term major impact on a sellers ability to sell on ebay and in this economy we are all just trying to survive. Most normal thinking people would consider 3-4 stars as a perfectly normal, average, or acceptable rating but ebay considers it a "failure". In order for sellers to remain in good standing on ebay we have to recieve a 5 star rating in all four categories on the detailed seller feedback panel. Unfortunately there will always be a tiny percentage of people out there that think the world owes them something for nothing and when they can't get it they resort to leaving sellers unjustified feedback. This is simply a fact of life and goes along with being a seller on ebay. I have always done my very best to offer quality merchandise at fair prices and I always do my very best to give buyers the best service possible but some people just can't be pleased no matter what ya do. To those people I say, go away and stay away and we'll all be blessed in the process. For the other 99.5% of ebayers, I welcome your business! Thanks in advance from the Dragon's Den!
