I began selling on Ebay in 1998. Originally I had hoped to pursue importing as my main business platform. I quickly discovered that I just didn't have the right demographics in my area (Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio) to be able to make consistent sales of the products I was importing. After several years, and lots of hard work, I decided to try selling more traditional collectibles full time (also, 9/11 and it's aftermath made my life more difficult, as my main emphasis was the Middle East).

I accept Paypal on all my listings. It's just the easiest way to do business on Ebay these days. Everything from bank accounts to shipping is streamlined and really easy to track and use.

I made it a point to always offer honest shipping from the beginning. I do NOT overcharge on handling like you may have noticed sellers doing on Ebay. My handling charge is roughly a buck, and roughly half of that covers the delivery confirmation portion of the shipment. I'm an expert at packing, and in over 11 years of selling and shipping on Ebay I've had only 2 breakages (and both of those were way back in the beginning).

I don't offer any warranties on my items. However, I DON'T sell junk! I inspect everything very carefully before I purchase it, not to mention offer a detailed and thorough description on my items. I DO stand by the description of my items tho, and if it isn't received in the described condition then I'll take it back.

I can be contacted through Ebay, and am very good about replying promptly.
