Gig in the Gardens Festival post performance celebration by Mehtap Kuzlar!

Hi

Thank you for taking the time to read the 'ME' page and I will tell you the tale of Jessica Wabit and my passions

My passions are fairly numerous but tend to weave in and out of the world of the Arts, music, crafts, dancing and anything that sparkles...

One of my real passions is Belly Dance also know as Raqs Shaqi.  I started to learn about Belly dance when I lived in Turkey about 11 years ago and realised what a fabulous experience it was.  I learnt about the culture, the music, dance whilst living with a Turkish family for a year that took me in as their daughter and allowed me to help in their family business on a day trip boat.  The time was unforgettable and will always be special to me.

I returned to the UK and began to teach and perform professionally (I have retired from performing now only doing the odd festival with a class troupe or a special friends event) but continued to teach.  I realised that trying to get hold of the costumes, music and accessories was incredibly difficult if you didn’t live in a major city such as London or Newcastle so I found a wholesaler and started to supply my classes.

I still teach, and love every minute of it and study with some of the best teachers in the world to build my style and experience, so hopefully as my shop grows then so will my travels to bring you wonderful things from around the world!

In the mean time why dont you check out 'My World' and my 'Blog - see the link at the bottom of the page and you can communicate with me and tell me what you think about my shop, my blog and my world but even better all about you!

Look out for my group that will be around Bellydancing (link coming soon)!

Oh and as for the name – it came from the phrase – ‘I’m not bad, its just the way I was drawn’  I loved it but didn’t want the characters name so added a twist and used it for a login for sooooo long some friends now call me Jess and as for the tale/tail…its behind me…lol

Hope to see you all soon in the store

Policies

I have decided to put this information here so the policies are clear and everyone can read the same information.  Please email me if you have any questions or can offer me advice to make savings to pass onto my customers!  Please don’t spam me though!

Postage & Packaging Policy

Packaging

My goods are kept in a smoke free home. They stored in a room where only I access to keep them in premium quality.  I only use good quality packaging materials to ensure that they arrive in the same condition.  Unfortunately I can’t guarantee the Courier!

I keep my postage and package charges to a minimum but it’s not just the postage you pay for but the packaging and the labour (someone has to take them to the post office, stand in the very long que and then drive home again).  I aim for a 76 hour turn around from payment being cleared to posting your item (not bad considering I work full time...lol) 

I will combine P&P charges as long as you contact me. I will charge the full price for the heaviest item and discount any others

I obtain proof of posting for each item but if you require insurance for your items please contact me and I will advice you of the cost.  This will cover you if items are lost in the post.

Returns Policy

Items must be returned within 7 days of receiving them and you must email me to tell me you are returning the item and why (this is just to help me provide a better quality service to you) and include the orginal invoice slip that was sent with the item

All items must be returned in perfect, unused condition in their original packaging.

If the item is non-returnable e.g. earrings etc it will be noted in the main text of the listing 

If the items are listed as used/seconds then they are automatically non returnable and sold as seen

I am not responsible for any of the P&P charges on returns and replacements 

I strongly advise that your purchase insurance through recorded delivery for UK items (it only costs an extra 70p) and airsure for international buyers (costs given on request).  This covers you if an item is lost by the postal service

Please be aware that items listed as used are non-retunable so  ask any questions before bidding.  I am a friendly seller and will help as much as I can.  P&P has been kept to a minimum and the weight of the parcel will direct what service is used.  Multiple buys may be sent in separate parcels to keep costs to a minimum

I obtain proof of posting for every item but please that Royal Mail does not consider an item to be lost until 15 working days after posting it. 

As part of their undelivered item investigations Royal Mail will you require to sign and return a legally binding statement that the item was not delivered and may also telephone you.

In reality I have very few items go astray as I include a return address on my items
