About my schedule: I do all of my listing, answering questions, feedback, etc. in the morning, so if you ask a question, please know that if it is not morning when you are asking, it will be answered the next morning, so please do not wait until listing is about to end before asking your question, I probably will not get it. I usually ship in the the late afternoon.
About my items: Most of the items I sell I buy to re-sell on ebay, so most of the items I sell are gently used, unless otherwise stated. I can not possibly wash/clean every item I sell, so some items may need to be washed or dry cleaned. I try only to buy items that are in very good to excellent condition, if there are any flaws I will try to disclose them in the listing. I try to be as accurate with my descriptions a possible and take the time to measure almost every item I list, measurements are aprox. as everyone measures a little differently. Please ask questions if there is any doubt!
Here are my ratings of items:
Excellent: little to no signs of previous use
Very good: some sign of previous use, usually minimal, gently used
Good: does show signs of previous use, but is still good
Condition of items: I will never sell anything with rips, holes (with the exception of the new distressed/destroyed look in clothing and it will be listed as such) or major stains or defects unless disclosed, but I really try not to buy this kind of item unless I feel it is rare or very hard to find. I only buy items that I would buy for myself or my family or that I would expect to buy second-hand on ebay, they may have a tiny flaw, spot, etc.
My Home: Non smoking home, however, since most of the items are used some items may come from a smoking environment, I can usually smell it and would disclose it in the listing, but I try not to buy anything that has a smoking or any other odor. I do have a big lazy golden retriever, but she is not often in my ebay room, I try to always check each item for stray hairs, but on occasion one might slip by, I also now have a standard poodle who does not shed.
Gentely Used items: Please.... if you are looking for brand new in a gently used items, you probably will not find it from me or any other seller on ebay unless stated in like new condition (which I rarely say in my listings unless it is 100% true!). Ebay is a great way to find that special item at a fraction of the retail price, so please know that going in!
Handling Fee: I do have a handling fee of $2. for every auction to help with the cost of gas to the post office/shopping and my Ebay listing/PayPal fees, packing materials, shipping labels and ink cartridges. It has already been added into my shipping charges, so shipping is a stated in the listing, please do not email for cheaper shipping, postage is high no matter how you look at it and I can not change that! Please take this into consideration when leaving feedback that you agreed to the shipping charges before you bid!
Returns: I am not a major department store, I am a small business, so it is hard for me to take returns with all the listing fees, final value fees and PayPal charges that go along with the time it takes to list items, so I will not return for sizing or guarentee fit. If I choose to do a return, I will not for any reason refund shipping either way (unless it was my mistake). Also know that there is a 15% return fee (restock/relist fee) on each item to help recover my fees and my time and refund will not be given until the mutual agreement has been filled out with ebay.
Combined shipping: Always happy to combine shipping when ever possible, for clothing it is highest priced item first and 1/2 off shipping of each additional clothing item purchased with in 4 days apart going to the same address on one invoice. Other items besides clothing will very so please ask first. I really don't try to make money on shipping. Out of the US will go by weight and handling fee.
Shipping: I try to ship everyday, but sometimes miss a day, your package will be out to you with in 48 hours of payment. I prefer USPS Priority as they give me my shipping supplies, but on the larger items I will use UPS, the choice is up to me on how it is shipped. I no longer ship Parcel Post (unless stated in the listing) as it does not save very much money and it can take up to 30 days to recieve your item depending on where you live. I do use First Class (US) when ever possilbe but no longer ship First Class International as you can no longer print labels from home. If I am shipping other than priority mail, I do recycle/re-use boxes from verious places, they will be clean boxes!
Local Pick up: Because of a bad experience in the past, I no longer offer local delivery or pick up, I will sometime make an exception to this on the larger items than end for over $20., but please do not assume, please ask first.
Shipping Out of the US: I only ship Priority Mail International out of the country. I print my labels from home and it will no longer allow me to print First Class International labels. If you purchase something from me on Ebay, it is not a gift so I will not mark as a gift when shipping outside the US, (so PLEASE do not ake me to do that) it will be marked eBay because that is what it is so please keep that in mind when bidding. Delivery Conformation is not available to addresses out of the Country, so I have no way of tracking your package.
Insurance and Delivery Conformation: All of my US items will come with Delivery Conformation, you will get an email after you have paid with the shipping date as well as the tracking number. Please check with USPS.com before emailing me about delivery. I can not be held responsible for any uninsured items. It is highly recomended to purchase insurance on any breakable items. I do my best to package breakables but the Post Office is not always careful so if it is really important to you... please insure it!!
Feedback: I will leave feedback after you have recieved the item and have left it for me, that is just the way I do it, it is easier for me that way.
Payment: Sorry but due to the growing number of buyers not sending payment, I no longer take any form of mail in payment.
I really try hard everyday to be an A+ seller, to get you a great product at a reasonable price!
