About Us - We're a family residing in California, USA and when not busy with domestic duties, work, school, etc. a small amount of time is allocated to buying & selling on eBay. We've collected stuff for several years and our eclectic interests are reflected in our purchases & sales here. As our user I.D. "cineorama" implies, much of this material is related to motion pictures.

Sales - We sell to support our aforementioned collecting hobbies and occasionally we'll also post things on behalf of our friends and associates. We endeavor to stay knowledgeable about the items we list and attempt to provide accurate descriptions and clear images of these offerings. We like animals but don't own any nor are we smokers so the goods you receive are coming from a pet & smoke-free environment. Another factor that assists us with quality control are the dry weather conditions here in the southwest which are conducive to storing collectibles, especially books, paper ephemera and film. (Bid with confidence. For the last few years most of our buying/selling has been conducted through our alternate account: derbuchmeister.)

Shipping Costs - We offer the most affordable means of shipping possible and we have never asked for additional "handling fees." eBay Seller fees, time, packaging materials, PayPal fees, fuel, etc. are all expenses that we absorb. Shipping charges are determined by weight. Buyers save $'s with combined shipping on multiple purchases. If your packaged item weighs in at 5.5 oz., that will be the cost for postage... not a flat Priority rate because we have access to the free USPS boxes. We are not above dumpster diving and/or recycling boxes to save fellow collectors a couple bucks on postage. Finally, if bidding goes through the ceiling on something, we'll normally provide complimentary shipping and often times throw in freebies as well. (Write for additional information/rates.)

Packaging/Insurance - We're pretty meticulous about packaging. Dropping something in a padded mailer without reinforcement can often times spell doom for the contents. We like to ensure that stuff will get from point A to point B intact without chips, creases, dents etc. It's better to take a little time and INSULATE stuff correctly than to have to deal with damage control later on.

Feedback - We normally leave feedback once a transaction is completed. We leave feedback for Sellers after we have received item(s). For Bidders/Buyers, we leave feedback after Bidder/Buyer has rec'd their item(s) and has notified us that they're satisfied with same. If you are a winning Bidder/Buyer and desire feedback for a recent transaction, leave us feedback and we'll do likewise... normally within 48 hours. We do scrutinize potential Buyer's and Seller's feedback received AND left for others.

Communication - The key to any good relationship. If you have a question, comment, or a problem that we can help resolve, you can message us through eBay or contact us directly via email: cineorama@aol.com
