Note that eBay has implemented some "required" Item Specifics in various categories that force sellers to fill in the blanks in listings with details that do not necessarily fit the item, such as "height", "length" and "width" for a round item as an example. Other specifics such as "style" and "type" may not allow an appropriate entry if it does not fit eBay's preselected list. The requirements can be particularly illogical with a "lot" of multiple items where eBay makes no accommodation. Also please keep in mind that, particularly with pre-owned items, we simply may not know the details eBay wants us to enter. Please consider the item title and description to provide the governing details. If there appears to be a conflict or you need additional details please let us know so that we can clarify before you complete a purchase.
All measurements and dimensions are approximate and could be off a little and maybe rounded up or down, particularly with irregularly shaped items. Please don't beat us up over a minor discrepancy.
Our home is smoke-free but not pet-free, and the items listed come from a variety of sources so we don't always know their history or their previous environment. Also, we recycle packaging to the best of our ability.
We generally base the "Standard" shipping charge on USPS Ground Advantage (formerly First Class Package service), Priority Mail, UPS Ground or Ground Saver. We no longer use FedEx due to their tendency to add substantial "extra handling" and other unreasonable surcharges just because they can. Books, DVDs, tapes and other eligible items may go USPS Media rate but please note that Media Mail is not insured and we cannot be resposible once they have the package. We also stopped using eBay's Standard Envelope shipping due to rampant "not received" abuse by unscrupulous buyers resulting from the lack of tracking and proof of delivery.
We may change from one carrier to the other as a result of balancing service and cost, but we will not ask you to pay more. In all cases we will need your eBay account address to contain a physical street address. That can be in addition to a Post Office Box. If you purchase without a street address we may need to cancel the order then have you repurchase after you update your address with eBay. The quoted shipping price is for the Continental US only. For Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico or US protectorates contact us to determine if an additional charge will be needed BEFORE you complete the purchase.
If you are located outside of the US we are unable to sell to you. We do not participate in eBay's International Shipping Programs at this time due to the nature of the system requirements and exclusions considering the wide variety of items we sell. IF YOU USE A FORWARDING SERVICE TO CONCEAL THE FACT THAT YOU ARE OUTSIDE THE US BE
ADVISED WE RESERVE THE OPTION TO CANCEL THE PURCHASE and if we do inadvertently ship it we will NOT refund your payment under any circumstances.
