eBay My World: yesterdayztodayztreazurez( 228)

I recently moved and am trying to become more of a minimalist! I am the queen of antique shops, estate sales and spent many a year gathering with love a very large collection! Trying not to be a pack rat with boxes of treasures packed away in boxes!

Vintage collectibles, toys, barbies, picture LP record albumns, Snoopy, children's books, Hull pottery (maybe....), you name it, I might just have it in a box somewhere!

Books, Hull pottery, wisdom and inspiration!

English

Antiques, collectibles, reading, cooking, most summer-time outdoor activities & time spent with my family!

Self-help, parenting, spiritual, - ones to help a person grow!

Comedy, adventure, a little romance

Country (top female, Tanya Tucker - top male, Alan Jackson)

Antique Road Show, almost anything on Home & Garden network (just love the Design on a Dime, etc) !!!

FEED BACK IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT TO SELLERS. BE FAIR AND ALWAYS TRY TO RESOLVE BEFORE LEAVING NEGATIVE/BAD FEEDBACK. I AIM TO PLEASE! I ALSO RESPECT THE RIGHT TO WITHHOLD FEED BACK UNTIL FEED BACK HAS BEEN LEFT.... SO MANY TIMES I LEAVE POSITIVE FEED BACK ON PAYMENT RECEIVED (WHICH SHOULD, IT WAS A BINDING COMMITMENT TO BUY!) AND DO NOT RECEIVE FEED BACK FOR ITEMS SENT. THE COURTESY OF GOOD FEED BACK WORKS BOTH WAYS. I ABSOLUTELY DETEST NEGATIVE FEED BACK AND UNLESS YOU JUST HAVE NO CONTACT, ETC I FEEL IT IS A LAST RESORT AND BELIEVE ME, I FEEL BAD EVEN LEAVING IT (EVEN WHEN DESERVING OF IT). DON'T TREAT A INTERNET BUYER/SELLER ANY WORSE THAN A PERSON STANDING LOOKING YOU IN THE EYE FACE TO FACE. BE HONEST, COURTIOUS, FAIR AND IT WILL BE A WIN-WIN SITUATION FOR ALL.

Work hard, come home, take care of the house, two kids, a great man, a dog, a cat, and do my e-bay hoping others will enjoy my treasures I part with as much as I once did!

PayPal because it's quick & easy (& ebay has required it!). Payment is expected within seven days of auction end or I may choose to pursue relisting the item and leaving appropriate feedback. All winning buyers should contact me within 72 hrs. to advise payment information. If you have less than a 10 rating or less than 100% positive feedback, please contact me before bidding. Make sure funds are available when you bid, I have bills to pay too. I always leave feed back so please be courtious and do the same - it is very important to all of us!

I pack all my own items unless unusually fragile. I prefer insurance to be purchased to protect both our investments. Buyer to purchase ins. unless otherwise stated. Claims to be handled by buyer if unavoidable. Will not be responsible for items once shipped if insurance is not purchased. Handled with care for sure -as it is not easy to part with any of these! I do not ship outside U.S. for now - I am trying to keep this simple! Most the time I end up paying more than what I charged at the auction due to my inexperience! I try at best to keep shipping close to accurate (don't have time to weigh each & figure and decipher on the best way to ship, etc!)... most come close and try to only profit a small ($2.00?) fee for handling which helps cover my time, bubble wrap, tape, etc. etc. I just try to be fair. If grossly mischarged I will at least send Priority but I usually come pretty close.

I only put no returns because I have heard the horror stories of shipping - they say it is broke ... Yes, it is insured but some one might just be conning someone and then my treasure did not find a new home as I would like! I am a hardworking honest person and if you are truly dis-satisfied , just e-mail me and I am sure we could work it out! I want this to be simple, my life is too full as it is! What you see, is what you get! Serious collectors will know the item better than me and if there is a concern of how they rate something, I'm sure they can ask thru e-mail so they are not disappointed in their investment. I prefer insurance to be purchased to protect both our investments. Insurance to be paid by buyer unless otherwise stated. Buyer to file any claim if unavoidable.

Mail or e-mail is fine depending on urgency of reply. I am new at all this, so bear with me. Some where I read if there is a dispute a buyer or seller can be contacted by phone -that would be okay too if necessary.

It's a quite special club to belong to!
