All About MeWhat everyone should know about me

Things I collect

InterestsHobbies
I sell primarily toy trains,
mainly HO trains. Stuff I can't use or have picked up various places,
train meets,
yard sales,
estate sales or Ebay. I try to be as honest and up front as possible. This is supposed to be a fun hobby focused on learning more about the hobby and helping others to do the same. The majority of items have been cleaned up,
lubed,
tested and are ready to go. If otherwise,
it is always mentioned in the description. If selling as parts,
pieces,
or resoration pieces I try to describe them as best as possible and take good pictures so you know what you are getting. In addition,
I have recieved many poorly packed items over the years from sellers who can't pack. I will treat your items as if they were being shipped to me. I will pack them as I would like to have them packed to insure that they will arrive at your doorstep as safe and sound as they left me. I also sell stuff from time to time that my kids have outgrown or can't use any more.
Business InformationHistory/background
I am not a business, this is one of my hobbies, besides hunting and fishing.
Payment policy
Unfortunately, due to Ebay policy, I can only take PayPal.
Shipping information
I always try to get your stuff to you the next day or the day after at the latest. I know you want your items as soon as possible. As stated above I always try to pack your items as I would want to recieve them. Nothing is more frustrating than spending good money on an item and have it ruined by careless and poor packaging.
Return policy
I don't take returns as I try to be as honest as possible in describing the item so that you get what you see and what you expect. I have had very few issues over the years with items not being as they were expected to be. If there are flaws I always try to point them out and take pictures of them and/or mention them in the description. Like all people I am human and do make mistakes once in a while.
Contact information
You can always feel free to contact me via email at thare3@verizon.net. I ALWAYS leave feedback although I do in large batches, usually once a week and of course I appriciate and expect the same. Please feel free to contact me if there is anythiing you are looking for including parts. I have a pretty good supply. Thanks for taking the time to read all of this, Tom Hare
