We are happy to combine shipping when feasible, so please check out our other auctions!
The Necessary Disclaimer:
We are downsizing wonderful collectibles, most of which are vintage/antique.
Some of these items were purchased in previously-owned condition from German/European flea markets and some items are from our personal life-long collecting.
We will not purposely misrepresent the items, but we are human, with middle-age eyesight, and may not capture all the potential issues in the description and/or pictures.
Since most of the items are not new, please email any specific questions you may have about the item and/or its condition before bidding.
We are a non-smoking household, but we cannot guarantee all items have been that way 100% of the time.
The listed shipping costs are estimated.
Buyer to pay actual shipping expenses which are best determined at the end of the auction when it is known where the item will be shipped to and the weight and size of the packing material required.
So, if you wait for an updated invoice, the shipping expenses may actually be less than the estimate.
We will not charge more than the estimated shipping costs, unless there is special requirements requested from the buyer, even if we under-estimate the postage.
Please feel free to double check our shipping costs against the official US Post Office website rates and let us know if you see a significant difference before you leave less than positive feedback regarding shipping fees.
(Also, keep in mind that both eBay and PayPal charge sellers fees against the shipping costs.
This is in addition to their sales commissions for the actual auction item.)
We participate in the eBay Global International shipping program, but please understand we do not have any control over the costs beyond the actual item price and the initial postage to get the package to the distribution center.
It can get very expensive to send the winning item to its final destination once the import fees and international postage costs are added by the eBay Global process.
Buyers are expected to pay for their winning bid within three (3) days of the end of the auction unless alternate arrangements are made PRIOR to closing.
DUE TO RECENT CHANGE TO PayPal
. . .
The original PayPal fees charged to a seller for any eBay transaction WILL NOT BE reimbursed to the seller WHEN/IF an item is returned and a refund is issued to the buyer.
We are a private party and not a business venture.
We are on a fixed income.
We do not deal in sufficient quantities or sell items at a high enough profit margin to cover these excessive costs for items returned through no fault of our own.
As such, we cannot accept “change-of-heart” returns unless we charge a “restocking fee” to cover the non-refundable PayPal fees, which range from 3% to 5%.
HINT for Submitting “Best Offer” in connection with Auction Listings:
If we include the option of a “best offer” when an item is listed in the auction format (rather than a buy-it-now format), we are more likely to accept an offer that is greater than the starting price.
We will not consider offers that are significantly below the starting price of an auction.
