My Negative Feedback
Please, do not judge me by the 7 negative feedbacks I recieved in early 2009. I use a special computer for the visually handicapped and it was stolen while these items were up for auction.I could do nothing to correct things at the time as even my phone was Vonage through the computer. All the parties recieved their money back or the item they won. By the time I was able to get another specialized computer, it was too late,(over 60 days) to respond or to get the negative changed. Please don't judge me on this. Look at my 100% feedback that I had from 2004 till the theft of my specialized computer. The people who gave neg. feedback were mad. Very understandable. But some,one in particular decided to say I was a crook,(his money and all others was refunded) that postage was too much,(I use calculated or exact postage only) and some other nasty things. Sure, I couldn't communicate, for me it was impossible at the time. I rectified everything. So please, bid with confidence, I'm honest!
Business InformationHistory/background
I have been collecting and selling since a child. Grew up with parents that loved flea markets, garage sales, tag sales, and antique shows. That gives me 40 out of 50 years of experience with antiques and collectibles of alll kinds. I have been selling on ebay since 2004 and hope to continue for a long time.
Payment policy
I accept Paypal and/or United States Postal Service Money Orders. No other types of money orders, No checks of any kind. If the auction includes international buyers, payment Must be by Paypal only in USD. International, before bidding, contact me first.
Shipping information
I do not charge for handling but I must charge for any special packing or shipping materials that may be needed. I try to keep costs low and I believe in recycling packing materials whenever possible.For instance;I may charge $1.50 to send out a collectable postcard. That is because I am making sure it arrives in the condition stated in my auction. I use only high quality envelopes and use rigid materials to keep the card in good condition. This costs more postage and supplies to ensure safe arrival. Believe me,it is worth it.I never add on extra costs that many other dealers do.That is pure greed and they are not dealers to be trusted. I use First Class Mail and Priority calculated mail.
If you purchase multiple items I will gladly combine your order so that you will save on postage.Postage is expensive, and I know you work hard for your money. I in turn will work hard to keep some of that money in your pocket.I pack the way I would want a purchase packed for me.
Return policy
I urge you to purchase insurance on your item. I pack carefully, but I will not be held liable for any item broken or lost in transit.That is what insurance is for, buy it! In the past on the rare occaision when an item was broken in transit, customers have threatened to leave negative feedback. What happens in transit is not my fault. If you leave negative feedback for this I will in turn do the same. Remember, the fault is with the courier, not me. Allmost all of my items are vintage and/or used. There are no refunds. The only time a refund will even be considered is if the description and condition of an item was grossly misstated.
Check For New Items
I will be offering different items weekly so please put me on your Favorites list. Check back frequently. If you see something you like bid on it. Don't lose your chance to own something special. If you can't bid on it personally, use ebays new bidder option that will bid for you. This helps regular folks to win auctions snipers only won before. Try it, I think you'll be very happy after you do! I never know what I'll put up for auction next, so check back and get in on the fun.
Service
I believe you should get the best, most courteous service possible. I pack the way I would like a package shipped to me. I try to anticipate unique problems and resolve them before they happen. You should expect no less from any other dealer on ebay. The way I see it, being disabled, if I can do these things, there is no reason any other dealer cannot.
