              ** SELLER INFORMATION & POLICIES ** 


I AM AN ESTATE PERSONAL PROPERTY LIQUIDATION LLC. 
ALL OF THE ITEMS I OFFER ARE FROM EAST COAST ESTATES. THEY ARE OBTAINED THROUGH CONSIGNMENT OR ESTATE LIQUIDATION PURCHASE. (I AM NOT A "YARD SALER", A " FLEAMARKETER", A "THRIFTER" OR A "PICKER".....)  YOU ARE SEEING THE ITEMS EXACTLY HOW THEY ARE OBTAINED FROM THESE ESTATES. I DO NOT TAMPER WITH ITEMS OR ALTER ANYTHING. I WANT BIDDERS TO GET THE ITEMS AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO HOW I SEE THEM FRESH FROM THE ESTATES.
 
 

MY AUCTIONS ARE PLAIN & STRAIGHT FORWARD. MY DESCRIPTIONS ARE CLEARLY WRITTEN & UNDERSTANDABLE. I TAKE NUMEROUS CLEAR CLOSE-UP PHOTOS OF THE ITEMS. I USE PLAIN BACKGROUNDS & SIMPLE TEXT FONTS. (I DO NOT BELIEVE IN FLUFFY BORDERS, FANCY BACKGROUNDS OR CONFUSING FANCY FONTS IN AN ATTEMPT TO MAKE AN ITEM APPEAR MORE SPECTACULAR THAN IT REALLY IS.) I SOMETIMES USE COMMONLY KNOW ITEMS, LIKE A MODERN NORMAL SIZE SODA CAN, RULER, ETC... TO SHOW SCALE / SIZE. 

I DESCRIBE ITEMS AS I AM LOOKING AT THEM. I DESCRIBE EXACTLY WHAT I SEE AS BEST AS I CAN. ALL ITEMS ARE BEING OFFERED AS FINAL SALES FROM ESTATE LIQUIDATION WITH ALL WEAR / TEAR / DAMAGE / SCRATCHES / DINGS / ETC... OF A USED VINTAGE OBJECT. I WILL ONLY CALL AN ITEM MINT IF I HONESTLY BELIEVE IT TO BE SO. I WILL ONLY CALL AN ITEM RARE / SCARCE IF I TRULY BELIEVE IT TO BE SO.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE: I CANNOT END AUCTIONS EARLY FOR THE "WHAT WILL YOU TAKE FOR IT NOW?" / "WHAT'S YOUR BUY IT NOW PRICE?" EMAILS. IF THE ITEM IS LISTED IN THE AUCTION FORMAT, THERE IS NO BUY IT NOW. 
ON OCCASION, I WILL HAVE TO END A LISTING IF THE ESTATE OWNERS WANT THE ITEM BACK FOR FAMILY REASONS OF THEY SEE LACK OF INTEREST / NO BIDS. I MAY ALSO END A LISTING IF 
I FIND A SERIOUS TITLE OR DESCRIPTION ERROR. (I'LL END AN AUCTION TO FIX THE ERROR & THEN RE-LIST IT ASAP.) 

I NEVER PUT A RESERVE ON ANY AUCTION. (
RESERVES ARE JUST A PHONY WAY OF TRYING TO SELL SOMETHING BY GIVING THE ILLUSION OF AN AUCTION......) 
ALL ITEMS ARE SOLD TO THE WINNING BIDDER AT THE AMOUNT THEY WON IT FOR. I NEVER REFUSE COMPLETION OF A TRANSACTION BASED ON WHAT AN ITEMS SELLS FOR. IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO SELL CHEAP, YOU GET IT CHEAP, NO WORRIES THERE.  

IF YOU ARE NOT CLEAR ABOUT A DETAIL, 
PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU BID & WIN THE ITEM. I WILL NOT CANCEL A TRANSACTION FOR QUESTIONS ASKED AFTER THE ITEM IS WON. 

PLEASE NOTE: I WILL CHEERFULLY & PROMPTLY ACCEPT A RETURN IF IT'S PROVEN THAT I MADE A GROSS ERROR IN DESCRIPTION. IF I MADE NO GROSS ERRORS, THERE ARE NO RETURNS ON THESE FINAL SALE ESTATE ITEM. 

I WILL NOT ACCEPT RETURNS FOR: BUYER'S REMORSE, WRONG SIZE, WRONG COLOR, SOMETHING NOT FITTING, ETC... I WILL NOT ACCEPT RETURNS FOR ITEMS THAT HAVE BEEN BROKEN, TAKEN APART, ALTERED OR TAMPERED WITH IN ANY WAY BY THE BUYER OR ANYONE THEY SEND IT TO FOR "REPAIR". 

I WILL NOT ACCEPT A RETURN IN REFERENCE TO FALSE / FRIVOLOUS COMPLAINTS OBVIOUSLY MADE IN AN ATTEMPT TO MASK BUYER'S REMORSE. I WILL NOT ACCEPT A RETURN FOR A FRAUDULENT RETURN DEMAND USING FEEDBACK INTIMIDATION (I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT A THREAT OF FALSE BAD FEEDBACK. THAT DOES NOT INTIMIDATE ME. FEEDBACK IS JUST MEANINGLESS, UNPROVABLE WORDS USED IN RETALIATION AS A RESULT OF EBAY'S COMMONLY KNOWN NEAR ZERO SELLER PROTECTION POLICIES...)

PLEASE ALSO NOTE: DUE TO NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH ATTEMPT THEFT & FRAUD, I DO NOT OFFER PARTIAL REFUNDS / DISCOUNTS ON THE OCCASION THAT I MAKE A GROSS ERROR IN DESCRIPTION. I ONLY OFFER RETURNS/REFUNDS. (SINCE EBAY'S NEAR ZERO SELLER PROTECTION POLICIES HAVE BECOME MORE COMMONLY KNOWN, THE WHEELER DEALER HUSTLERS HAVE COME OUT OF THE WOODWORK TO MAKE FALSE / TRIVIAL COMPLAINTS & THEN ASK FOR PARTIAL REFUNDS WITHOUT RETURNING THE ITEM BY USING IMPLIED / PERCEIVED FEEDBACK INTIMIDATION. PLEASE REMEMBER: WITH ME, YOU ARE NOT OUTBIDDING MULTIPLE OTHER BIDDERS TO WIN AN ITEM TO MERELY GET IT INTO YOUR POSSESSION ONLY TO EXAMINE & THEN HAGGLE or NEGOTIATE A PRICE.) 

MANY OF THE ITEMS ARE RIGHT OUT OF BEING STORED IN OLD ESTATE HOMES FOR MANY YEARS. JUST TO BE SAFE WHEN BIDDING, PLEASE ASSUME AN ITEM POSSIBLY DID NOT COME FROM A "SMOKE FREE" HOME. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT SMELLS "OLD" OR "SMELLS LIKE SMOKE" TO SOMEONE. I DO NOT OFFER RETURNS FOR AN ITEM THAT A BUYER SAYS "SMELLS OLD" OR "SMELLS LIKE SMOKE". (JUST ABOUT EVERYONE SMOKED BACK THEN.....)      

IF POSSIBLE, I TEST ALL WIND UP, ELECTRIC, MECHANICAL, CAMERA TYPE, ETC... ITEMS & WATCHES AS BEST AS I CAN, MANUALLY,  BEFORE LISTING. I THEN DESCRIBE WHAT I SEE AT THE TIME THEY ARE LISTED. I HAVE NO WAY TO TEST CAMERAS USING FILM. (I HAVE NO WAY TO KNOW OR WARRANTY HOW LIGHT TIGHT AN OLD CAMERA STILL IS. I CANNOT OFFER ANY WARRANTIES OR RETURNS IN REFERENCE TO THE EXACT SECOND PRECISE TIME KEEPING ACCURACY OF VINTAGE PRE-OWNED WATCHES or CLOCKS AFTER THEY GO THROUGH SHIPPING & ARE USED BY THE NEW OWNER. I HAVE NO WAY TO PREDICT HOW WELL OR HOW LONG AN OLD WATCH or CLOCK WILL CONTINUE TO RUN PROPERLY AFTER BEING USED BY THE NEW OWNER. MY INDICATED OBSERVATIONS IN THE DESCRIPTION ARE WHAT THE MECHANICAL ITEM IS DOING IN FRONT OF ME AT THE TIME OF TYPING THE LISTING.

ALL VINTAGE TOYS, MODEL TRAINS & HOBBY ITEMS ARE BEING OFFERED AS ADULT COLLECTIBLES / HOBBY ITEMS. THEY ARE NOT BEING OFFERED AS WARRANTED / SAFETY CERTIFIED CHILD'S TOYS FOR PLAY USE.  

PLEASE REMIT PAYMENT WITHIN 3 DAYS OF AUCTION'S END. ANY MAILED PAYMENTS MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 5 DAYS OF AUCTION'S END. (I AM VERY CASUAL, FRIENDLY & ACCOMMODATING, BUT NON-PAYING / NO CONTACT BIDDERS DESTROY THE VALUE OF ITEMS. YOU DID NOT MERELY "PLACE AN ORDER". YOU OUTBID MULTIPLE OTHER PEOPLE TO WIN THE ITEM. IF A WINNING BIDDER DOES NOT FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE TRANSACTION, I WILL FILE AN EBAY BUYER NON-PAYMENT CANCELLATION TO RECOUP THE EBAY FEES. THIS WILL CAUSE A NON-PAYING STRIKE ON THE BUYERS EBAY ACCOUNT.)

I SHIP WITHIN 5 DAYS OF A CLEARED PAYMENT. 99% OF THE TIME, IT'S WITHIN A DAY OR TWO (AND MANY TIMES ON THE SAME NIGHT YOU PAY, IF I'M NOT TOO BUSY...) 
I ALWAYS TRY TO PACK MULTIPLE SMALL NON-FRAGILE PURCHASES IN ONE BOX TO SAVE THE BUYER A BIT ON THE SHIPPING/PACKING COST (AS LONG AS IT IS SAFE TO DO SO W/O RISK OF DAMAGING ITEMS BY JAMMING THEM IN ONE BOX. THAT IS AT MY DISCRETION). I NEVER STACK FULL SHIPPING COSTS FOR MULTIPLE ITEMS ON TOP OF ONE ANOTHER UNLESS THEY HAVE TO BE SHIPPED IN SEPARATE BOXES. (A LOT OF
 HIGH VALUE, FRAGILE, ODDLY SHAPED OR LARGE / HEAVY ITEMS WILL HAVE TO BE SHIPPED IN SEPARATE BOXES FOR SAFETY IN TRANSIT.)  

I SHIP MOST SMALLER ITEMS IN THE USA VIA USPS PRIORITY MAIL W/ DEL CONF. AS PER EBAY RULES, ALL ITEMS VALUED AT $750+ ARE SHIPPED WITH SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION. I DO NOT SHIP ANYTHING VIA USPS 1ST CLASS MAIL, USPS MEDIA MAIL OR FED-EX GROUND - NO EXCEPTIONS. 

I SHIP LARGER & HEAVIER ITEMS VIA UPS GROUND OR USPS GROUND ADVANTAGE. PLEASE NOTE: THE ONLY WAY TO ALASKA & HAWAII WILL BE VIA AIRMAIL.
 I  WILL NOT CANCEL A TRANSACTION FOR UNEXPECTED ALASKA / HAWAII HIGH SHIPPING COSTS AFTER THE ITEM IS WON. 

PLEASE ALSO NOTE: I DO NOT OFFER LOCAL PICK-UPS AT ALL (DUE TO A HORRIFIC BUSINESS SCHEDULE). I ONLY SHIP ITEMS.

FOREIGN BUYERS USING A 3RD PARTY FREIGHT FORWARDING COMPANY WITH A USA MAILING ADDRESS TO CIRCUMVENT MY PROHIBITED COUNTRY BIDDING LIST, TAKE CAREFUL NOTICE: ALL OF MY AUCTIONS ARE USA ONLY LISTINGS. I DO NOT SHIP OUT OF THE USA. I CONSIDER THE EBAY REGISTERED U.S.A. MAILING ADDRESS AS THE BUYER'S ADDRESS. (THE UNKNOWN OVERSEAS LOCATION THE BOX WILL EVENTUALLY BE FREIGHT FORWARDED TO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME. WHEN THE USPS TRACKING SHOWS THE ITEM DELIVERED TO THE USA EBAY REGISTERED ADDRESS, IT'S CONSIDERED DELIVERED BY EBAY.) 

I DO NOT OFFER ANY DISCOUNTS OR RETURNS TO A FOREIGN BUYER AFTER THE ITEM GOES THROUGH SOME 3RD PARTY FREIGHT FORWARDING COMPANY & PASSES THROUGH UNKNOWN 3RD PARTY HANDS. 

I DO NOT INCLUDE ANY PRIVATE 3RD PARTY FREIGHT FORWARDING COMPANY CUSTOMER ID NUMBERS (DISGUISED AS FAKE "SUITE" - "APARTMENT" - "ATTN:" - "C/O" - JUMBLED CODE LETTERS, ETC...) ANYWHERE ON THE ADDRESS LABEL. I ONLY INCLUDE THE WINNING BIDDER'S ACTUAL NAME SHOWN ON THE EBAY ITEM PAGE AS THE BUYER. I ONLY INCLUDE THE PART OF AN ADDRESS THAT SHOWS AS VALID IN THE USPS POST OFFICE OR UPS MAILING ADDRESS COMPUTERS.

PLEASE ALSO TAKE CAREFUL NOTE: ALL EBAY KNIFE / AIR RIFLE / WEAPONS PARTS / CAP GUNS / RESTRICTED ITEMS RULES APPLY. ANY OF THESE ITEMS ARE A USA ONLY LISTING. I WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY INTERNATIONAL BIDS FOR THESE ITEMS. I WILL NOT COMPLETE ANY TRANSACTIONS WITH A BUYER IN ANOTHER COUNTRY FOR THIS TYPE OF ITEM. IF YOU DO NOT LIVE IN THE USA, DO NOT BID ON THIS TYPES OF ITEMS. 

THESE ITEMS WILL ONLY BE SHIPPED TO A BUYER'S VALID EBAY REGISTERED MAILING ADDRESS IN THE 50 STATES OF THE USA. IT WILL BE ADDRESSED TO THE WINNING BIDDER'S NAME ONLY (I WILL NOT WRITE ANY FAKE "C/O" - "SUITE #" - JUMBLED LETTERS - CODE LETTERS, DUAL NAMES, ETC... WRITTEN ANYWHERE ON THE BOX OR ADDRESS LABEL).
