Business InformationHistory/background
I have been collecting militaria since 1989, and most pieces I sell come from my personal collection. My eBay name of mrktgrdn comes from Operation Market-Garden, which was the largest airborne operation during WWII, and still is to date. I collect and sell militaria from all nations and wars.
Payment policy
PayPal is the preferred method of payment. However, I will accept Money Orders with prior coordination. Payment is due 3 days after close of auction via PayPal unless other arrangements have been made. Persons outside of North America must pay via PayPal.
Shipping information
All items are carefully packaged to prevent damage. I charge a reasonable flat shipping rate for both US and International bidders. The flat rate covers the cost of postage, the cost of packaging materials, and mailing supplies. Packages are normally shipped the next day after payment is recieved with the exceptions of Sundays and U.S. Holidays. I can not be responsible for items lost in transit by US or other foreign postal services. Once it is mailed it is out of my control. What I am responsible for is careful packaging, timely mailing, and providing proof that the package was mailed. As of today, I have yet to have a package go missing. However the postal service in not perfect so I offer shipping insurance which is optional for US bidders and is limited for international bidders. Persons outside the US can always ship via Registered (secure) Mail. All items mailed in the US are sent with delivery confirmation and packages outside the US with proof of mailing certificate.
Return policy
I do my best to describe an item, both positive and negative aspects of a piece. So if an item is not as described or you feel a discription is misleading it may be returned for a refund within 10 days after recieving it. Please inform me that you are returning an item and be sure to include the auction number to expedit the refund. Refunds will be given as money back minus shipping charge.
Contact information
The best why to conact me is through eBay's ask Seller a Question.
Authenticity Guarantee
Authenticity and originality are guaranteed so bid with confidence. I will not knowingly sell an item that is a reproducution without describing it as such.
Feedback
Feedback is left immediately after payment is recieved. I ask that you leave feedback for me once your item is received to let me know that it has arrived safely and is in good order. If an issue comes up with your item and before you consider leaving neagtive feedback please contact me so that we can workout a solution. As you can see by my return policy there should be no reason for negative feedback.
