This is a neat Victorian, probably 1880's era sewing or mending kit that is a 3 panel fold out with front page illustration of a young girl sewing something and called a Combination Ladies Toilet Case. Other outer covers have litho of little boy dressed in soldier uniform with plume hat and a kind of horn of plenty with little needle or pin cards falling out of it. Inside one page has hairpins and needles in one holder and hatpin type pins in another. The center panel has needles, Dix and Rands Large Eyed Sharps, Peerless Sharps, and card of dress hooks. The other panel is a full page card of pins. A little wear at corners and edges as would be expected but overall very good considering age and nature of this type of item. Dimensions in closed position approx. 4-3/4" x 6-7/8".

TERMS OF SALE - PLEASE READ ALL CAREFULLY- It is all important and will save problems later.

No Reserve

Methods of Payment: As per the changed Ebay policy, I am only able to accept Paypal payments.

Shipping (for continental U.S):$3.00 - Buyer pays all shipping costs, plus insurance when applicable.

Insurance: I am still trying to come up with a policy that will be managable regarding insurance. New Ebay policy changes have made it really hard. There is no longer a separate place on the invoice to list insurance. If I just add it into the shipping cost then people wonder why the shipping is so high. If I leave it to the buyer to decide if they want to add it to the invoice it may be hard for them to pay a different amount than the invoice shows. I am very tempted just to forget insurance all together and make sure the buyer knows that all liability for damage or loss once item is shipped is in their hands. NOTICE TO INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS: By now everyone should be aware that there is no longer any surface options for shipping overseas, so everything will have to go air mail and over 4 lbs will have to go Global priority. That will greatly impact heavier items that don't have a high value. You will end up paying many times more for the shipping than the item in some cases. Please be aware of this possibility and make sure you have all shipping questions answered well before the end of the auction or you might be in for a considerable shock. I am aware that the high shipping rates may keep international buyers from bidding on some items which I understand, but don't want you to be unaware of the situation. Thank you.

International Bidders terms and shipping: We do ship internationally but the cost can be considerably more and will be figured at conclusion of sale based on destination, weight, and method of shipping. It has also become necessary for me to include the following instructions to all overseas buyers. I cannot do anything about the customs regulations of your country, but when I fill out the customs sheet for shipping the items will be marked 'other' and the actual final bid price of the auction will be what is declared as the value. PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME TO DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN THAT. I will not comply. I am sorry if this causes a problem at your end, and I want as much business as possible, but if you cannot agree to these terms, please do not bid.

ATTENTION: PLEASE READ. Some last important instructions. -- Please do not request that we stop an auction or remove an item from an auction once it has started. The only reason I will ever stop an auction early is if I feel it is necessary for reasons such as if I made a serious mistake in the listing, or during the course of auction lost or damaged the item, etc. I do not stop auctions early at bidders request for the purpose of selling the item before the end of auction. It is against Ebay policy, plus not fair to other potential bidders, and I will not consider request to sell an item early for any reason. I also will not switch to a Buy it Now option on an item if it is not listed with that as an option, so please do not ask me if I would consider doing so. I mention these conditions here so that you won't have to waste your and my time with emailing. I am very happy to email for purpose of answering questions about the item for sale and giving more details if necessary, but I will very likely NOT reply to any email requests to do either of the above mentioned requests. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Feel free to email with any questions about the item or terms and conditions. Thank you for looking at this item and we look forward to being of service to you.
