TERMS OF BUSINESS
Please read the following terms carefully, as they form an important part of the listing:
1. Photographs are an integral aspect of the overall description of this telephone. It is incumbent upon the buyer to ensure they have studied the images thoroughly and are satisfied with the item’s condition prior to purchase.
2. These are genuine vintage telephones. As such, while restored and tested, they are several decades old and may produce some crackling or slight interference, particularly when used on modern digital phone systems. They cannot be compared to the clarity of contemporary devices.
3. All phones will show signs of age, including scuffs, marks, or slight discoloration, which are to be expected and are commensurate with their vintage status.
4. I kindly ask that you pay promptly—payment is expected within 48 hours of purchase, unless we have agreed otherwise. I reserve the right to cancel the order if payment is not received within this timeframe.
5. I aim to dispatch quickly and will send your item via Royal Mail Tracked 48, securely packaged for safe delivery.
6. If there is an issue with your item, please contact me directly before leaving feedback. I am always happy to resolve problems where possible, but I do take a dim view of “keyboard warrior” behaviour—leaving negative or neutral feedback without first offering me the opportunity to address your concerns is neither fair nor constructive.
Thank you for your understanding and for respecting these terms.
