Key to all my LEGO listings, please read before asking me
questions. Any exceptions are noted in each individual listing.
Condition:
MISB means MINT in SEALED Box. The box is sealed, meaning
everything is unopened and it has never been built. If pieces are missing, it
came from the factory like that. The box should be in near pristine condition.
NISB means NEW in SEALED Box. The box is sealed, meaning
everything is unopened and it has never been built. If pieces are missing, it
came from the factory like that. The box may have some dents or dings.
NIB means NEW in Box. The Box is opened, but all or almost
all the bags are sealed and it has never been built. The box may have some
dents or dings. The set should have all pieces, but cannot guarantee it.
PRE-OWNED means exactly that. It has been opened and built,
at least once. There should be no missing pieces as chances are good that if
they were missing, I already had them replaced.
Shipping:
Please don’t ask me to take special care and pack it
extra-special in a sturdy box. I ALREADY do that. Each set will be wrapped in
bubble wrap and packed very carefully and snug in a sturdy box and taped up
like crazy. I want the set to arrive at your doorstep in the shape it left
mine.
Shipping is CALCULATED. It is based on shipping box size and
weight from my location (Cincinnati) to you. The boxes tend to be big, so box
size tends to count more than weight, but I weigh every box with packing
materials to give accurate numbers when it is listed. If you live close to
Ohio, shipping will be less. If you live on the west coast, shipping will cost
more. I don’t make money off shipping. In the rare case that the pre-calculated
shipping is greater than the actual shipping by a significant amount, I have no
problem offering a partial refund. But I will not ask you to cover the
difference if the error is in the other direction.
Combined Shipping:
I will combine shipping depending
on the items. I will combine similar size items, but not a large and small item
together. Shipping cost goes up rapidly based on box size, so a large and small
item together is a bad deal for you, plus there is a real risk of the smaller
item getting crushed.
Storage:
Everything has been stored in climate-controlled conditions.
Each set is packed carefully in storage boxes and those are sealed up so
nothing can get in. I do have pets; however, they do not come near my LEGO sets
and all LEGOs are stored away from my pets. If you see a stray dog hair, I
apologize, it probably got there when I was packing up your set to ship.
