Just so you all realize, I'm a one-person operation and this is my only source of income. Since I ship worldwide, items at auction are never wrapped prior to the end of the auction. I wrap as carefully as possible and it does take time, so please understand that I will not be able to give you actual shipping costs right away. I do send out emails to let winners know that they have won ... just please allow me the time to package your item safely for shipping before I get back to you. The exception is Jewelry, for which I use a standard rate for all.
I refer to myself as a "picky packer" and if you check my feedback you will see that it shows. I usually ship via Priority Mail when it comes to fragile items. This may cost a little bit more, but I have not received any complaints about anything being broken.



Here's hoping that everyone finds all the goodies they are searching for on ebay, and hopefully I'll have something that you'll feel you just can't live without! I try to offer a wide variety of things ... all in very good to excellent condition. Combining winning auctions is not a problem.Keep checking back as you never know what you may find. Good luck with all the auctions you bid on.From past experience I've found the best thing to do is bid only what you feel the item is worth to you. Bid once ... bid what you can afford ... and pray. Of course, I guess like me, you've found that a quarter or fifty cents can make a big difference!

I love to write poetry so I thought I'd share this with you:
My Personal ThoughtsAll those of us who have finished schoolWere brought up with the Golden Rule.Now our children, some so youngCan't raise a voice to Him in songUnless they're in His "House of Prayer";I thought that God was everywhere!Must our prayers in silent flight,All be said to Him at night?Our "Land of Freedom" has a flawIt's time for us to change the law!"In God We Trust" ... all others pay cash:Sound familiar? Why didn't it last?
Our world today has changed so much. I don't believe things will ever be the way they used to be. We can only pray that things will get better and maybe someday, maybe not in our lifetime, but in that of our children's children ... all men will live in peace and harmony.
