This item is sold "as is". It is a very hard to find item, and represents the 1980s or the current cottage core trend. It does have repairs around the hood, which are just temporary paint repairs, but maybe somebody that's a little more artistic than I can make it more sustainable. The main issue with this -that probably is not fixable- is in the concave area where the spoon would rest. There appears to be staining, which is normally caused by water retention. I don't see any crazing, but the glaze has to be compromised there or the staining would not have happened. Other than that, I don't see any major chips- just the fleabites around the hood that have been painted over with a temporary paint.

No other issues found.

FYI: Lately USPS rates for packages that weigh three to five pounds are actually cheaper than a package that weighs less than 3 lb. So, it is actually your benefit to buy more than one item with combined shipping and get it to weigh more than 3 lb but no more than five.

CONDITION:

I TAKE A LOT OF PICTURES.

USUALLY 8 & ABOVE,

BECAUSE pictures are a MAJOR part of the description.

Sometimes, I recycle auction templates and the listing may say three, but you can see four items in the pictures-what you see is what you get, no matter what the words say. I am sorry if I make this mistake. But, if the pictures show one item, but the heading says four, consider it an error, if you see one item it is one item. If you see three, it's three etc.

Please look closely at ALL of them. Any defects not mentioned but visible in the pictures will be considered as "described".

PLEASE:

USE THE ZOOM FEATURE

AND 

READ the DESCRIPTION.

SIZE: In 99% of my listings:

The size of the item is shown

in the pictures with a RULER OR YARDSTICK next to the item.

IF there is any damage-

it is shown in the last two pictures (possibly more)

and will be listed in the last paragraph of the initial auction description (the part before all of this small print).

AGAIN, PLEASE EXAMINE ALL OF THE PICTURES CAREFULLY TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ITEM(S) CONDITION IS ACCEPTABLE TO YOU PRIOR TO PLACING A BID OR BUYING!

SHIPPING:

Shipping is sent through USPS using ground advantage which is estimated by eBay combining the size of the box, the weight of the box and the distance traveled. You are charged the EXACT amount that USPS charges to send from my address to yours. So, shipping charges are non-negotiable.

RANDOM SIDE NOTE:

An extremely high percentage of my items are VINTAGE AND RARELY NEW.

Vintage items are objects made prior to 1990 and MOST have smaller flaws indicative of normal use and age.

If you are a vintage glass collector, we will be listing a lot of new (vintage) art glass, including Viking, LE Smith, Fenton, Westmoreland, Imperial and more, sporadically - as we acquire it.

If you are an art glass collector, make sure you check back weekly, as we have too much to list all at once.

Sometimes, I may not be able to get to respond to messages until after midnight as I am a night owl. I do my packing of items starting at 11 pm and send them before 3:30 pm of the following day- except Saturday and Sunday. Small town-weird USPS hours.

YES, I DO COMBINE SHIPPING!

EBAY SELLERS CANNOT SEE WHAT IS IN YOUR CART. ANY QUESTIONS MUST BE ASKED FROM THE SPECIFIC ITEM'S *CONTACT SELLER* OPTION.

YOU CAN PAY FOR EVERYTHING SEPARATELY OR YOU CAN REQUEST AN INVOICE.

IF YOU REQUEST AN INVOICE IT WILL HAVE THE RETAIL POSTAGE STATED FOR ALL ITEMS IN ONE BOX AS LONG (AS THEY FIT INTO ONE BOX).

IF YOU BUY THINGS INDIVIDUALLY, I WILL REFUND ANY EXTRA MONEY THAT YOU HAVE PAID IMMEDIATELY AFTER I PURCHASE THE SHIPPING LABEL.

REFUNDS:

Due to the amount of recent AI generated damage claims, damaged items must be returned prior to receiving a refund.

I do offer refunds if the item is damaged during shipping or item is not as described (sometimes I miss things) -but if you do not like the item and return it -you are responsible for the return shipping. In cases of returns, the item must be received back to me in the same state it was sent to you, before a refund is initiated.
