Business InformationHistory/background
Over the years, I collected a very large inventory of more than 1000 items of HO scale train equipment planning to build a large HO layout when I retired as a municipal public works director. I then discovered that my dreams exceeded my willingness to maintain such a monster train layout. That and fact that retiring to Florida where we don't have basements plus the changing interests of age caused me to build a smaller and more manageable layout. Which leaves me with way too much train stuff. I'm now selling my overstock of HO trains on ebay.
Payment policy
Paypal only! It's just easier that way. If you're not a paypal user, please don't bid!
Shipping information
I will ship via UPS or USPS priority depending on the items being shipped and the location being shipped to. I'm a hobbyist, not a full time merchant so I will figure actual shipping for items purchased and invoice customers after auctions are completed. I will combine shipping on any group of items over any five day period. Buyers will be charged actual shipping and handling charges. I'm not going to pad my profits via a marked up handling charge as some ebayers seem to do.
Return policy
Returns will only be accepted in case of a gross error on my part. I'm not a hobby shop, so you will get personal attention to detail on your purchases, but if we goof, I'll make it right.
Contact information
I check my email several times a day during times when auctions are running, so if you have any questions about items, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Feedback policy
I've been on ebay for eight years now. Mostly as a buyer, but also as a seller. I believe very strongly that feedback should go in the same order as the transaction. As a buyer we're expected to pay promptly and provide shipping information. At that point the buyer's work is done and the seller should provide feedback and ship the item. After the buyer receives the items, the seller has finished their work and should receive feedback. Bottom line is that when you buy from me, I'll leave positive feedback for you when we ship.
