I have been selling on Ebay for over 5 1/2 years now ~
(BEEN Very SICK for 4 months, BACK listing AGAIN)
I appreciate you found my listings, you might want to put me on your FAVORITE sellers list.
8-17-09 Warning: eBay Search Results May Vary by Browser
EBAY has 'defaulted' all your searches to BEST MATCH , often ignoring visibility of the small casual sellers. You might try changing your drop box to "SORT BY: "time ending soonest" to get more listings unseen in Best Matches that you are getting now. Be a smart shopper !
FLASH: 10-13-09
Google changed their policies. Individual sellers who sell on a marketplace can't submit their own product feeds anymore. Ask any seller with an ebay store who did their own feed and they'll tell you they've been cut off by Google. They used to submit items to google on a regular basis and my items were always listed prominently on google. Now I search on google for my items even using the exact title from ebay which would normally make the top of the list as usually no one else is using the exact same title an now 9 out of 10 times they do not show up. What is even more rediculous is google doesn't charge for product feeds ? They have also almost completely stopped paying for adwords on google as well .
It seems eBay is ignoring the fact that more and more people are using search engines like Google to find products on the Internet.
I'm NOT a drop ship, big box store, retail store, co-signment shop or dealer.
I am a homemaker - RETIRED (read my ABOUT ME & MY WORLD)
I work hard to maintain 5***** rating on ebay, AFTER YOU PAY,
I ship by next morning or when post office opens.
DON'T BE FOOLED by my low opening bids ~ I am deep cleaning house !!
A terrific hobby for me ! Buy a little on ebay, sell a little on ebay...and save time and tons of $$ in gas. Cleaning out drawers, liquidating mother's Estate, and having a ball. I've met some great people, made nice friends and bumped into few crabby one's who are lookin' for something for nothing ~ seams a few always wants to argue shipping costs....ho hum !
AS my feedback reflects, I don't dilly dally around about shipping !!
I ship as fast a YOU pay (SORRY I do NOT combine auctions) When I receive your Paypal payment notification, I leave YOUR 'prompt PAYPAL payment ' feedback, I immediately buy on-line postage & your package is shipped USPS right away when my postman comes. I want you to receive your items promptly.
PAYMENT THRU PAYPAL ONLY
Seller accepts Credit/Debit Card, E-check and all other acceptable methods of payment through PayPal.
|
PayPal, ONLY
Shipping USPS Priority or Parcel Post mail
with delivery conformation.
Postal Insurance is sellers option: uninsured damage in shipment is buyers risk....In most cases, the listing gallery pix will be on the box to alert USPS that contents is fragile.
NO RETURNS: All sales are FINAL. NO RETURNS - unless incorrectly listed and then Buyer is always responsible for all return shipping costs ! Rather by PAYPAL CLAIM or AGREEMENT: Customers are always responsible for any return shipping cost. PERIOD
MY RETURN POLICY - no returns...
I AM ONLY HUMAN...but if you feel I have not described item to your specifications, I will ask you to email me a picture of the discrepancy - IF I can 'see' the issue, and feel you are correct, I will refund your bid on the spot. Savings you the return shipping costs.

~ SHIPPING ~
Please Note: your item will be shipped on the next DAY following the end of the auction. Payments received later than 10Am on a shipping day will go out on the next scheduled day.
PACKAGING NOTE: I pack in bubble wrap and packing peanuts ! Good packing saves you time and money in the end -
I charge a $ 2.00 HANDLING FEE and it is automatically figured in total the shipping calculator gives you by your ZIP CODE , unless otherwise stated in listing. ALSO is included in the FLAT FEE SHIPPING
I DO NOT COMBINE multiple auction for SHIPPING ! It is at sellers choice to do so. PLEASE DO NOT demand or assume I am required by EBAY to combine OR reduce any flat fees on shipping in listings or stated on invoices when sent to you.
NO 'combined shipping discount' available !! |
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ....ASK BEFORE YOU BID ~~ PLEASE
I like to give positive feedback, Unlike some sellers who have a hundred word warnings for possible sleazy customers, I like to describe my praise to those who are buying my treasures. SO I leave your feedback right after you pay ! I value your payment promptness !
NEG's left for me is proof you "CAN'T PLEASE EVERYONE ALL THE TIME "..And some people just like the power & ability to gripe...sometimes no matter what I say or do. I am also convinced NEG feedback is a two sided story that often can not be explained in short space provided !!
WARNING, I do NOT adjust or negotiate reductions in winning bids......Don't ask.
I Will require any un-fair, slanderous or untrue NEG "OPINION" feedback or DSR's (Detailed Seller Ratings) sections, to be withdrawn.
|
NOTE, my home is NOT smoke or pet-free.
Many times I use recycled packing materials. Please do not bid if that poses you a problem. Items from Mother's Estate have been packed & stored away for many years, so some, not all items, may have aquired some smell ~ to be expected with VINTAGE items. I do try to clean up when listing, but with my LOW opening bids, winner might want to re-touch up. A bargain is a bargain !
BUYERS REMORSE.............WANT TO FILE A CLAIM ?????? Consider this:
What is Significantly Not as Described (SNAD)?
An item is Significantly Not as Described if it is materially different than what the seller described in the item listing.
Here are some examples:
You received a completely different item. Example: You purchased a book and received a DVD or an empty box.
- The condition of the item was misrepresented. Example: The listing said "new" and the item was used.
- The item was advertised as authentic but is not authentic.
- The item is missing major parts or features which were not disclosed in the listing.
- You purchased three items from a seller but only received two.
An item is not Significantly Not as Described if it is materially similar to the seller’s item listing description.
Here are some examples:
- The defect in the item was correctly described by the seller.
- The item was properly described but you didn't want it after you received it.
- The item was properly described but did not meet your expectations.
- The item has minor scratches and was listed as used condition.
ATTENTION BIDDERS, BUYERS and WINNERS: EBAY Rules about Feedback

STARS How to leave detailed seller ratings
What you rate |
Five stars is the highest rating, and one star is the lowest.
Tips for rating |
|
How accurate was the item description? |
-
Review the item title and description to see if they match the item you received. |
|
How satisfied were you with the seller's communication? |
-
Recall if the seller addressed any questions or concerns that you had, and did so in a professional manner.
-
Consider only business days when evaluating the timeliness of the seller’s communication (sellers may not check email on weekends and holidays). |
|
How quickly did the seller ship the item? |
-
Rate the seller on the time it took to mail the item, not the time it took you to receive the item.
-
Don’t hold sellers responsible for delays in mail services, international custom delays, or for the time it takes for your payment to clear. |
|
How reasonable were the shipping and handling charges? |
-
Remember that sellers may charge for the cost of the actual packaging materials, along with a reasonable handling fee to cover the seller’s time and direct costs associated with shipping. |

The real SNICKERSCAT101
|
On the personal side,
MEET :SNICKERSCAT101 , my ebay ID, is actually our 9 year old TUXEDO CAT ~~
DON'T BE FOOLED about my LOW opening bids......
Many times a good 'bid war' ensues, and often someone gets a real bargain..!
I'm too old to do a garage sale & I need to get these boxed Estate items cleared out - so check back often with my auctions.
I enjoy a bargain - hope you do to !!

Most of our collectibles were obtained at Garage Sales, Storage Auctions and Estate Sales/Auctions. They are used unless otherwise specified. Many are Vintage and some may actually be Antiques. My policy is to offer only high quality items for sale but I cannot guarantee perfection. You must expect an acceptable degree of evidence indicating age and/or use.
I will tell you all I can regarding the items age, origin, and condition.
