Who we are.
We live in a small town in Ohio. My wife & I have been married for about 15 years. We have two great kids, both girls and they are in the BEST High School Band around!
Business InformationHistory/background
I started buying on Ebay in Oct of 2001. Car models mostly. I loved getting a good deal. I have always love auctions. I would come home from an auction with boxes and boxes of stuff and Renee would get so mad. I had the whole basement full of stuff. Well, the mill starting cutting hours and it was Christmas time so I decied to sell a few things. Renee was happy to see stuff go and the money came in handy. After awhile she got to be more involved taking pictures, doing research, and listing. I mostly do billing and shipping. Now she comes to auctions with me and doesn't mind it when I bring home my goodies and fill up the basement. Keeps the whole family happy. I get to bargin hunt, she gets some extra money and the girls get some stuff that maybe we wouldn't have had the money for without ebay.
Payment policy
We take Paypal, money orders and personal checks. There is a 10-14 day waiting period from the time when we get checks and we ship your item out.
Shipping information
We try to ship on Mon., Wed., and Fri. But please understand that I do work at a steel mill and sometimes I am forced to work doubles. Working 16 hours in the mill and knowing that I have to get up in 6 hours to go back might mean that it will take an extra day or so for me to get your package out to you. We always try and charge the actual shipping plus $1.00 to help cover our supplies. If we ever over charge you and we are able to ship your item out for less they you paid we will refund you the difference (anything over $1.00) If you ever get a refund we hope that you mention this in your feedback to us so that others will know that this is true.Oh, and one more thing for international buyers. We welcome your business but please be aware that shipping is much more costly for you and we do NOT feel right about lying to the post office and saying that your item is a gift. So please Don't ask us to do that for you. Sorry.
Return policy
We are not experts in any of the items that we sell. We get them at auctions, flea markets and garage sales. We try and include lots of pictures and welcome you questions. We want you to be happy. All of our items are sold as is. However, if we ever grossly misrepresent something, we will refund the money. We highly recommend that you add insurance to your order. We try to do our best with wrapping and packing, but things have been broken in shipping or have been lost in shipping. Most importantly, Talk to us give us a chance to make things right BEFORE you leave feed back.
Contact information
Please feel free to contact us through Ebay. We will get back with you as soon as possible. Sometimes Renee is able to answer faster than me, but sometimes she wants to talk it over with me before she responds or if it is a shipping or billing question she will leave it for me. But both of us try and check to see if we have any question at least once or twice a day.
Shipping Cost
I know we talked above about shipping, but I cannot stress enough how hard we try and be honest and fair with the shipping. Please look at your box when you get it and see how much the actual shipping price was. We cannot control what the post office charges. Yes it is expensive sometimes but, this is not our fault. Feedback is very important to us. When you rate our shipping anything less than a 5 is not good for us. I am not sure if buyers understand this. Anything less than a 5 brings down our rating. So please keep this in mind the next time you rate a seller. Thank You.
Why we charge a $1.00 for handling
Okay, We know that there are people who can afford to eat some of the cost that come with selling on Ebay. We are not one of those lucky groups of people. Ebay charges a listing fee, plus a final value fee, everytime someone pays with pay pal they get a chunk of money, we have to buy ink and paper, shipping peanuts, bubble wrap, tape, and gas to go to the post office three times a week. Plus the actual cost of what we paid for the item. It all adds up and when you sell something for $3.00 there isn't much left after everyone else gets there part of the pie. Some people say sell your item for more to cover these cost. Well sometimes when you do that people just don't buy your item because it cost to much. We are hard working honest people. We all like to get a good deal. We tell you up front that we charge this $1.00 and we will wrap your item safely for its trip to you.
