My auctions deal with wide varieties and types of items fitting many different interests. I take pride in caring for the items I have and keep them in the best shape possible (even those that weren't in the best shape when I aquired them).

THE IMPORTANT STUFF
Payment: At the moment, I only accept PayPal. I do not have a problem if there will be a delay in payment. All I ask is that you contact me to let me know as soon as possible. Items are shipped within 1-3 days after receiving cleared payment.
Listings: My auctions are detailed and descriptive to make sure that you know what you are getting with no surprises. I am as honest as possible when listing an item and try to display pictures that accurately show each item. Personally, I like to know exactly what I am getting when I bid on an item and I do my best to extend the same consideration for others.
Item Categories and costs: Many of the books and guides I sell can be shipped media mail. However, magazines cannot because they contain advertising. They have to be shipped at parcel or priority mail rate. If the package would be randomly inspected and found to be shipped the wrong way, it will get sent back to me for re-shipping. This will cause delays and additional cost and possibly can be lost in transition. Rather than take that chance, I do not ship media mail for magazines. This might seem inflated but it is simply the actual cost of shipping by weight plus a minimal handling fee.
Please keep in mind that media mail is perhaps the cheapest rate but it also takes the longest amount of time to arrive (up to 2 weeks, depending on the region). Please remember to consider the extra time media delivery might take. If that seems too long, I usually offer other methods of shipping to select. I cannot control how long it takes the post office to deliver. All I can do is get it sent out quickly.
Shipping Info: Sometimes my job can make it difficult to get to post office during regular working hours which is why I state that shipping will be within 3 days. Items will go out same day as payment is received if possible. I ship only by USPS and do my best to ship quickly. Items are well packed using clean material (recycled and/or recyclable when ever possible).
Insurance is optional but if item is not insured, I will not be responsible for damage in transit or for lost items.
Multiple Items and Cost of Shipping : I am willing to combine shipping on multiple items and try to get similar items listed within a reasonable time of each other to make combining orders more convenient. If you plan on bidding on multiple items, please let me know at the close of the auction so I can hold the item/s. Also, please be aware that if items fall within different shipping categories, the difference in shipping might not be much.. I do not intentionally gouge or inflate shipping costs.but do charge a small handling fee.
The handling fee covers the cost of delivery confirmation and/or packaging.
Tracking number will be sent with notice the item has been shipped.
Refunds: I try to be as accurate as possible in both the description and pictures so there will be no 'surprises' when you receive the item (or items). If you feel there is any kind of problem, just let me know as soon as possible and I will try to make things right. But please contact me before leaving feedback and see if we can get things worked out. I sell most of my items "as is" because I am confident of the quality and I state any possible flaws I notice. If I have missed something concerning an item, I am more than happy to work with you about it.
For returns, item must be returned in the condition it was received and original shipping costs will not be refunded. Buyer pays for return shipping.
Feedback: Feedback after the item has been received is greatly appreciated and once recieved, I will leave feedback in return. Please remember that I have no control over how long the postal service might take to deliver (especially with media mail).
Communication is both highly valued and greatly appreciated and I try to give the same in return.
Thanks for looking and good luck in all your bids and auctions !
