Shipping
Policy Transparency All shipping is priced based on buyer location
If you
purchase multiple items that are eligible for combined shipping, combined
shipping will be applied automatically in your shopping cart. There is no need
to contact me about combining shipping costs. Please note that combined shipping cannot be offered
for fragile items, and I make this clear in the relevant item listings. Please
also understand what combined shipping really means. eBay adds the weight of
all items together and prices the shipping costs based on your location and the
combined weight and box size of the original listing. They do not increase the
box size to accommodate the additional items. Common-sense dictates that I will
have to increase the box size to accommodate more items. With that being said-
you are not being charged by eBay what the carriers are going to charge for
this increased package size. eBay is only charging you for the combined weight
of all the items. Please do not email me regarding shipping costs that you
think are too expensive. I will not refund shipping costs nor lower shipping
costs as they are what they are and I am charged what I am charged even if you research
and feel that you can get a lower rate. Shipping charges are non-negotiable.
I do not
negotiate item prices based on shipping costs and will not reduce the price of
an item to offset shipping charges. My aim is to offer items at fair and
reasonable prices, and the shipping cost reflects the actual expense. You will
see the item cost and the shipping cost based on your location—before adding
items to your cart or making a payment. If you are not satisfied with the total
amount, please do not ask for a reduction; the shipping charge is what I am
required to pay as well. You are free to decide whether to complete your
purchase or not.
Please
don’t email me to complain about the cost of shipping. I don’t control the cost of shipping,
the USPS took a rate hike of 8% on April 26, 2026 that will remain active until
January 17, 2027. And they are about to take another rate increase.
Please be
aware that I do not accept returns or provide refunds, and I ship all orders
within 24 hours. If
your order is placed between 4 PM and 12 AM, it will be dropped off at the post
office around 4 AM (Monday-Friday)-excluding UPS and FedEx shipping. Orders
received Monday-Friday from 12 AM to 4 PM will be taken to the post office the
same day. All orders received from 4pm on Friday to 2pm on Saturday are dropped
off at the post office by 3pm on Saturday. All Sunday orders are dropped off at
4 AM Monday morning. All UPS, FedEx, and
freight shipping will be shipped within 24 hrs and as per carriers’ hours of
operations. All times exclude holidays and vacations. Once an order is
placed, I am usually unable to cancel it since it may already have shipped.
Make sure to review your total cost and understand that I am not responsible
for any buyer’s remorse after purchase.
eBay allows
sellers to offer shipping discounts at their discretion. I want to be
transparent that I always pass any available shipping discounts directly to
you, the buyer. The shipping price you see is determined by your location and
matches exactly what I pay to ship your item. For international orders, any
additional shipping-related fees—such as customs or import charges—are handled
entirely by eBay. I do not receive or process any of the custom fees you pay,
nor do I see them in the breakdown of transaction costs on my screen. I can’t
help you with those.
I understand
this policy may seem strict, but I believe it is important to set clear
expectations regarding shipping and pricing. I am an individual seller, not a
business, and am only selling items that have come from my own home, which
include my mother’s items, and inherited items-with a very specific goal/reason
behind the liquidation. Because of this, I cannot cover shipping costs myself
and quite frankly get upset when I must answer questions regarding shipping
costs when I have made my prices very fair and made my shipping policy very
clear. Thank you for understanding.
