I've enjoyed ebay since March 1999. I find it fun, exciting & enjoy bidding, buying & selling. I did not actively sell for a while but started selling again in May 2008. I had a great time as a Seller & was successful with no complaints. I will miss interacting with terrific ebayer's but life has other plans for me right now.

I am a collector of costume jewelry & other items like armadillos, hummingbirds, beanie babies & Catholic medals of saints & rosaries. I've been blessed to meet some good Christian friends. Yay for great ebayers!
One of my future hopes is that some of my collections will appreciate in value & can help put my three grandchildren (who are now ten, nine and 8, years of age) through college in the coming years. Sadly the market on beanies has crashed. |

Hobbies My husband's work on 1956 Ford F100 called the "The Big Gorilla" is finally finished.
My goal is to have full health, enough strength to work, exercise & to continue losing weight.
I've dropped 150 pounds since 1/5/07 & have 65 pounds more to get rid of. The weight loss has slowed the last two months but my skin is 'catching up'. Currently I am stuck between sizes 18-20 & 20-22 depending on the style. We have a weekly weigh in to keep me accountable. Update 9-30-8 Had a 30 pound setback but am back on track now. Will update periodically. Vacation & knee surgery + life events in general took their toll & I resorted to eating for comfort. Thank God, I have understanding friends at TOPS (Take off pounds sensibly).
We are owned by a young bullmastiff female named Precious. She'll be two years' this December and weighs 125 pounds (probably more now) & is a great lap dog. She's on my lap in the picture above.
I love lying in my hammock between two evergreens feeling a gentle breeze and having a small view of Puget Sound. Life doesn't get better than this.
My favorite colors are: purple, fuschia, emerald green, blue & turquoise. I love multiple colors & 'BLING'! Anything, shiny, sparkly, dangly items like earrings, necklaces, blue jeans chains, etc.
Many of the items are in ALMOST NEW WITHOUT TAGS condition, others are GENTLY WORN WITH NO HOLES, STAINS, EXCESSIVE wear & with ALL BUTTONS INTACT. The condition of the clothing will be STATED CLEARLY in the description of individual auctions.
All items will be CLEANED according to EBAY STANDARDS before shipping.
Since the items will be rolled for shipping in the flat rate boxes, some wrinkling may show.
NOW FOR AUCTION 'TERMS & CONDITIONS' | I REQUIRE purchasing USPS insurance. Once the box leaves my possession, I cannot be responsible for any item lost or damaged in shipping. All items come from a SMOKE FREE Home.
METHODS OF PAYMENT: I always accept Paypal and prefer it! PayPal's service seems to be a fast, easy, and secure way of making payments for your eBay purchases!
I will accept Cashier's Checks or Money Orders but obviously those will take longer to process. Please let me know if that's the method you choose so I don't send any 'gentle reminders' for payment. Thanks a billion! Payment is due within 7 days of auction close. If you choose to MAIL PAYMENT, it must be received within 10 working days after after the Auction's close & you receive my e-mail with total due and address to send payment.
I do NOT accept personal checks!
RETURN POLICY All items are sold in AS IS condition as CLEARLY stated in each auction. All sales are FINAL! I do not refund shipping & handling. However, if you are dissatisfied by my representation of an item, I'll do what I can to make it right. Hopefully after we communicate & before leaving negative feedback. Smile!
SHIPPING
I ship ONLY to USA. Shipping is via USPS. I'll use USPS flat rate box in medium or large sizes for multiple items or 'priority mail' shipping for smaller, lighter items. I'll ship within one or two days after each auction ends & once payment is received.
Shipping confirmation will be sent to all winners. Once again, I REQUIRE purchasing shipping insurance. The fee for that is shown on each auction page.
I do not like waiting for my items and I don't think you want to wait for yours. I NEVER mark-up postage. International Bidders: I'm sorry, but at this time International Shipping will NOT be offered!
WINNERS Please, include your Auction Item #, eBay User ID, and Shipping Address along with your payment.
Any followup information on the quality of my items will be appreciated. When you receive your item(s) please leave feedback so I'll know you received your delivery. If you pay promptly I'll be happy to leave positive feedback for you. I leave feedback for Buyers as soon as possible after payment. I don't wait until you leave it for me.
Please ask questions BEFORE bidding. If you do not intend to pay for the item, please do not place a bid. Again, all sales are FINAL. I believe in looking on the Bright side of life in spite of the fact that I sometimes must make that choice moment by moment.
May you have a safe & peaceful 2008!
