PLEASE READ
IMPORTANT INFORMATION BELOW
NEW
items:
Items that have never been used/worn. May or may not have boxes that show
shelf wear, or other conditions, which will be disclosed in the listing.
USED items: Conditions of used items is very
subjective. My "very good condition" or "like-new" condition may not be your
"very good condition" or "like-new" condition. Use the listing pictures and
descriptions to determine condition. Ask any specific questions you may have
prior to bidding.
BIDDING
I try to be honest
& exact in all my listings, however I am a "one-woman show", and certainly
not an expert in any field. I'm sure I do sometimes leave out pertinent
information that I don't realize is important. If you have specific questions, please
ask me prior to bidding. I
would be more than happy to check again rather than have an unhappy buyer.
*** The majority of my items
come from yard sales, storage units, auctions, estate sales, etc., and are sold
as-is. I try to include as many photographs as necessary to help you determine
the condition of the item, however if you would like more pictures, I would be
happy to email them to you upon request. Items come from my non-smoking home,
however I have no way of knowing if the previous owner was a smoker. If there
are any offensive odors, I will disclose that in the listing
description.
*** All items are as
pictured and described. By placing a bid on any of my items, you
are agreeing to all the terms and conditions stated.
PAYMENT
All items are to
be paid via PayPal within 3
days of the end of the auction. If this is going to be a problem
for you, please contact me PRIOR to bidding so other arrangements can be made. I
will gladly work with you. Florida
residents pay 7% sales tax on purchase only. An Unpaid Item Dispute (IUD) will be filed for all
items that remain unpaid after 3 days.
SHIPPING - All
fragile/breakable items are carefully packaged for shipment using bubble wrap,
packing peanuts and other packing materials as necessary. Some packing material
are new, some are clean used materials. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO REQUEST
INSURANCE.
BOOKS -
Individual books are shipped in
bubble lined mailing envelopes. If you wish to have your book shipped in a box,
please let me know prior to paying for the item, as S&H may be slightly
higher due to the added weight of the box. Large lots of books are shipped in
boxes.
SHIPPING
CHARGES -
Please use the shipping calculator to determine shipping charges to you
zip code. The amount charged for S&H is based on the current USPS postal
rates, shipping material required to safely ship your purchase, and the
additional percent that EBAY and PayPal charge in the way of fees for all
payments that I collect. Frequently this cost does not cover all the fees I
incur. In fact, I WILL TRY to absorb some of the fees, however I am just not
able to cover it all. My goal is to keep shipping charges as low as possible
making every effort to wrap and box all items for safe shipping. I base my
shipping costs on the actual weight of the item. I estimate how much the item
will weigh after being properly packaged and boxed and I enter that weight into
the listing. eBay's listing page then provides you with a calculated shipping
from my zip code to your zip code, based on that weight. If the shipping seems
higher or lower than other comparable items listed, please consider where you
are located from me. It is a "calculated" cost based on the USPS postal zones.
The more zones/further away you are from Florida the greater the cost. This means to
ship to California, Oregon, Washington, and
other west coast states is considerably more than to ship to states that are
close to Florida. PLEASE NOTE: I try my best to
estimate the actual weight of the packages as best I can, however if the package
turns out to be a bit lighter than estimated and the actual shipping is less
than the calculator estimated, please note that this is not done intentionally.
I DO NOT CHARGE A HANDLING FEE. Please
remember that S&H charges not only cover shipping costs, but packing
materials as well. Please keep this in mind when leaving feedback regarding
S&H charges.
COMBINED
SHIPPING - I GLADLY
COMBINE SHIPPING for multiple wins paid for at the
same time. NOTE: I do not
usually combine media mail items with non-media mail items. If you are unsure if
your multiple purchases can be combined, please ask. If you do plan to combine
shipping for multiple wins, please wait for a combined invoice before making
payment.
SHIPPING DAYS -
Once I receive your confirmed payment, your order will be shipped within 24
hours, excluding weekends and holidays. If you have provided an email address,
you will receive an email with shipping/tracking information once the shipping
label has been generated online.
FEEDBACK
Your fast payment
and positive communication will earn you immediate positive feedback from me.
Once you receive your order, if you have any issues with any of the items you
receive, please contact
me PRIOR to leaving negative feedback,
as most issues can be worked out
reasonably. Please
remember, feedback
cannot be changed
by the buyer or by the seller once
it has been posted. Please don't base your
feedback on issues that are out of my control,
such as slow shipping time or damage due to mishandling of packages by the
postal service. Also, please keep in mind that S&H charges not only include shipping
fees, but packing material needed to
safely prepare your item for shipment.
RETURNS:
If you wish to return an item, you
need to contact me within 7 days of receiving the item and tell me why you wish to return
it. The reason can't be that you just changed your mind! It must be due to gross
misrepresentation in order for returns to be accepted without a monetary
penalty/restocking fee. Pictures to support you claim will be required and can
be emailed to me for review. Items for return/refund must be returned back to me
within 14 days of being shipped to you or refund will not be granted.
NOTE: THERE IS A
10% RESTOCKING FEE ON ALL RETURNED MERCHANDISE. Items that are returned due to
misrepresentation will NOT be charged this fee.
If you have issues with your purchase, please contact me PRIOR
to posting negative feedback, as most issues
can be worked out to our mutual satisfaction. I think it is only fair that you
give me a chance to make you happy. It is NEVER my intention to misrepresent any
of my items or to sell items that are of poor quality. All items returned for
refund MUST include shipping insurance and delivery confirmation, and be in the
same condition in which they were listed. This includes items that are in
unopened packaging and therefore they need to be returned to me unopened. No
refunds will be granted on uninsured items that are lost or damaged during the
return shipping process.
REFUND WILL NOT
BE GIVEN ON RETURNED ITEMS THAT SMELL OF CIGARETTE
SMOKE! Return shipping charges are paid
by the buyer and are non-refundable...no exceptions! THERE ARE NO
RETURNS ON UNDERGARMENTS.
INTERNATIONAL
BUYERS
PLEASE
NOTE: Import duties, taxes and charges are
not included in the item price or S&H 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 sale price or mark items as "gifts" as the U.S.
and international government regulations prohibit such
behavior.
NOTE: I encourage all international buyers to choose to have
their packages shipped via Priority International as they can be tracked during
shipment. First Class International packages can not be tracked once they leave
the United
States. If you choose not to have your package
shipped priority, then I can not be held responsible for items that are lost
during shipment.
