· It should be expected that vintage and antique items are not always perfect. We try to be as accurate as possible in our descriptions, and we are very particular about disclosing any flaws or damage. We also include numerous photos with all listings, and most photos can be enlarged for more careful viewing.
· If you are uncertain about the condition or age of any item, please ask questions before bidding. We are usually able to respond very promptly, and will provide as much additional information as possible to assist in your evaluation of the item.
· Please do not bid if you are uncertain, as items are not sent on approval. All sales are considered final, unless we have overlooked something or made a significant error in our description.
· If you are not fully satisfied with your purchase, please contact us before leaving feedback so we have the opportunity to resolve your concern.
· Packages are mailed with Delivery Confirmation; Signature Confirmation is required for all items over $250.

The minimum charge for this method of delivery to most countries is $26. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not bid.
Please also note this information, which eBay requires all sellers who offer international shipping to include in their listings:
Import duties, taxes, and 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 them for additional shipping charges. We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
