(Added Dec 13 , 2006 --I will attempt to keep pics to 4 or less on eBay with a link to more on my web site. I have had several on dialup say the page load times are slow with so many pics. I tend to get carried away if I think the item worthy of more pics. If you want to see more pics of an item and if there are more pics you will need to follow the link in the listing or go to www.vintageslips4u.com and look for the item under the appropriate heading. Ebay may edit out the link to my website as they want all sales to go through them but I hope they do not as my intent is to make available additional pics with faster Ebay page load times, not to circumvent eBay on sales. The link will only take you to the pictures of the item you are interested in, not the entire website. If eBay edits out the link I may have to go back to placing more pics in the listing. Sorry dialup users.)

I take the position that you are an adult and can handle being treated like one. So where most would gloss over the fine points, for fear of losing your business, I stress them.

The following is basic info for all listings. UNLESS Otherwise noted in the listing.

BR> This section is longwinded and you need not read it unless you plan on bidding, then it would be prudent to do so.
The good news... If you read one, you've read them all, as all my listings contain the same info from here on. Unless noted otherwise in the listing itself.

If the item is one you truly want, remove some risk by letting eBay bid for you.
You never know what personal issue could come up that may cause you to miss the end of an auction.
If you intend to snipe at the very end, as many do, bear in mind I have several pics and a lot of text and refreshing the page may take time. I host my own pics and the server could be slow. If a lot of people are refreshing the page at the same time it may take longer. You may not be able to place your bid at the last second if you do not have the timing right.
More after the Payment and Shipping section.
Your bidding strategy is totally up to you.

OK, My auctions pages are not like what some refer to as 'Clean Auctions'.
'CLEAN' Meaning they have a couple pics and a few words and nothing else to clutter the listing.
People like 'Clean' listings because they do not want to read much.
They want a couple pics and a straight forward "Send me the money and I'll send you the item."
Hey same here...ALMOST.
I call them 'Buyer Beware' Auctions, because you really don't have a clue as to where you stand.
I include everything but the kitchen sink which is as much for your benefit as mine. No, it ain't pretty, but at least you know where you stand. I put in more pics and better descriptions So YOU ARE INFORMED not because I like to spend hours taking, transferring, resizing, uploading pics and writing descriptions. Remember You buy based on Pics and descriptions so you might as well get your money's worth.
Just bear in mind that everything is the same on all my auctions (unless noted in the listing) and if you read this once you never have to read it again.

Payment and Shipping.
We almost always use 1st class w/ confirmation (under 10 ounces) or USPS Priority w/confirmation. On occasion we might ship Parcel Post... "on occasion". Buyer requests are always considered but most items are packaged prior to the end of auction and so are shipped as packaged.
We may use another shipping method depending on size, weight, value, safety of item, or other considerations, at our discretion.
Though we may combine shipping at our discretion, Do NOT rely on it as part of your bidding strategy, as we may not pass savings along.
We consider combined shipping on an individual item basis and what we look at is:
Is the item already packed and if so how much bother will it be to repack it.
Will it be necessary for us to construct a box or do we have one of sufficient size on hand.
Basically will it cost us money, time or labor and is the savings worth the effort.
In order for us to consider combined shipping the items must be easily combined or we need to be compensated for our efforts and still realize a significant savings to you. If you have combined shipping in mind it would be prudent for you to contact us to validate the ability to do so on the items you intend to bid on.
We RARELY make anything on shipping and if we do we consider it a long overdue bonus to help make up for all the times we lost money on shipping. We generally make a bit on items under a pound and break even or lose on items over a pound depending on packaging. Just being honest, do not mean to offend anyone's sensibilities.

We do pass on charges for Confirmation 60 cents 1st Class; 50 cents Priority and a small handling fee. USUALLY $1.00 or less! , all "included" in the shipping rates quoted or calculated, just enough to cover costs in most cases. If you haven't priced bubble wrap envelopes or Tyvek envelopes or just bubble wrap, 'peanuts', plastic bags, tape, etc. then you need to in order to understand that without a handling charge we lose money. Unlike many others we do not intentionally gouge on shipping; Just try to cover costs for shipping materials: Bubble wrap, paper, tape, ink, plastic bags, time packing and gas driving to the USPS office and we figure on more than one package per trip, as it costs $2.00 in gas alone for each trip. So most often we come out a bit short on handling. If your item ships in a letter envelope with no packing you will likely feel ripped off. Keep in mind a Tyvek envelope costs 50 cents and confirmation is 50-60 cents. There's your $1.00 right there, before we even consider packing, time, gas etc...
And yes sometimes, on light weight items shipped 1st class in a tyvek envelope, there might be enough to help defray ebay and paypal fees, though this is seldom the case.
Many buyers are unhappy with postal costs and when a seller charges $30.00 to ship what cost them $3.00 I can see why.
Sellers do this for many reasons the main being eBay charges listing and Final Value fees based on the price of the item, not the shipping, so their insertion fees are lower as well as their final value fees but an unaware person may bid an item thinking the $0.99 is a great buy but then when you tack on the shipping it is not so great. Remember to always figure shipping into your bid and also remember if you purchase insurance only the purchase price is insured not the shipping so if you need to collect on insurance or in some cases a refund all you get back is the purchase price. So when you buy from a seller that charges $0.99 for the item and $30.00 shipping all you can insure is the $0.99 ( The purchase Price) You lose the shipping.
We do not intend to profit from shipping though at times we do, it often is less than a dollar, ll things considered and even more often we lose money on shipping ll things considered Some buyers get hostile thinking a seller might have made even a dime off them in shipping, This borders on the insane, it is definitely ridiculous. There are costs to a seller like listing fees, picture fees, final value fees, Paypal fees, Paypal printing fees for labels other than Priority, Currency conversion fees, Paypal refund fees, all in addition to the packing fees and gas and time in line and if you have a problem with my possibly making a dime on your purchase over what you bid then DON'T BID!
Just figure shipping into your bid amount, or do not bid.
We usually eat it on shipping or just break even, seldom do we make anything on shipping. Our FLAT rate on shipping is only $1.00 or less over the cheapest priority incase we decide to send the item that way. (Domestic only) up to 10 ounces and able to ship 1st Class mail. Over that we use the calculator. It is usually set at weight + $1.00, which seldom covers costs.
International bidders will need to contact me for rates if there is not a flat rate posted. I will try to get back to you in time to bid but cannot guarantee that I will. International calculator can be off as much as $2.00 or more as the handling charge is set for Domestic NOT International. And the addition of customs forms and additional wrapping can send the weight to the next level. Depending on what the next level is this could translate to quite a bit more cost in shipping.

The Auto-Generated Invoices no longer allow you to make changes. You will need to wait for my invoice if any changes need be made and all International buyers purchasing on calculated rates, need to wait for a new invoice, as you can no longer add the additional handling charges yourselves.

One bad apple who decided to take it upon themselves to change the invoice in their favor, by including a substantial seller's discount, I never authorized, has now made everyone have to either rely on the integrity of the auto-generated invoice or wait for a new invoice reflecting any changes we have discussed. I have discontinued allowing buyers to edit checkout invoices. Sure I could withhold the item till the balance was paid but why should I have to even bother with a dishonest person? I'd say 95% of eBayers are the best customers anyone could hope for. 4.5 % need to be coddled in one way or another but the deal gets done to everyones satisfaction. It's the 0.5% trying to work it to their favor by cheating and lying and preying on both sellers and buyers that make eBay a place to watch your step.

All International buyers must wait for a new invoice that will reflect the true handling charges. DO NOT PAY ON THE AUTO-GENERATED ONE. Unless the postage is flat rate posted. Any "calculated" rates are not accurate as the handling fee is based on $1.00 domestic.
Please understand USPS provides domestic Priority boxes and when an item is large enough we use them and weight is derived from packing in them. If the item ends up going International we have to find another box (sometimes heavier or larger or both) and repack the item. The weight may be more, the handling is more, more packing may have to be used. The difference could be considerable.
If you pay on the auto-generated invoice with domestic handling fees and the item costs us considerably more we will NOT ship the item unless you pay the difference . So best if you wait for another invoice from me with the correct charges or contact me before bidding.
Posted flat rate International is accurate and you may pay on an auto-generated invoice.
!Posted flat rate only!

Payment can be made through Certified Cashiers Check, Money Order,(Postal Money Order Preferred, you can buy at the time of mailing) or PayPal. Cash at your own risk.( Surprisingly many do send cash and perhaps because we only receive mail at a USPS P.O. Box it is fairly secure, but it is still your risk. Not all postal workers are honest. And regretfully we have had lost (stolen) cash payments. If you send cash hide it in some folded paper or card stock with writing on it so you can't see the money.)

We do NOT accept wire transfers that require us to go collect our money nor any type of payment that requires our bank account #.
We will accept a personal check but, BE AWARE, there will be a MANDATORY 14 (FOURTEEN) DAY WAITING PERIOD for any check to clear. NO Exceptions. This includes Cashiers Checks and Money Orders. A Bad check is a Non-Paying bidder and a Negative Feedback.

I will ship International on most items.

Domestic Buyer's can skip over this section.

Bear in mind that International shipping is high priced and

I will only accept PayPal or cash in U.S. currency on International shipments. If sending cash be aware of the risks and the risk is on you. I will not ship till paid; also send payment airmail as I will not wait 2 months for payment to arrive.

I will only ship to countries that are Paypal approved and can receive USPS GLOBAL PRIORITY or USPS AIR LETTER POST or USPS AIR PARCEL POST or USPS Global Express Mail, even if another method of shipment is chosen, based on weight, size or insurance needs. Global Priority mail does not allow for insurance and is not available in all Countries.
Air Letter Post also does not allow for insurance but is available to more countries. If you want insurance you need to choose a method of shipment that allows for insurance such as Air Parcel Post or indemnity protection such as Global Express mail with registered mailing. Insurance for International shipments are higher than Domestic so you need to get the rates from:
http://www.usps.com/global/intlspecialservices.htm#H3 (Air Parcel Rates)

WE will not ship Ground on International as it takes too long. Insurance is NOT available to all countries. Italy and Greece are prime examples.

AIR Parcel or Air Letter or Global Priority or Global Express Mail only.

I will "TRY" to charge USPS Postal Rates plus $2.00 or less handling fee on International shipments on most shipments. Use the flat rates quoted (correct) or calculated rate plus $2.00.
$2.00 may seem a bit much but:
Most International shipments have to be repacked especially if the item is already in a domestic priority box. But there may be other considerations like weight or size. Global priority and Air letter Post have weight (not over 4 pounds) and size, see ( www.usps.com ) restrictions.
It costs me $2.00 in gas to go to the Post office and International Shipments 'usually' are a separate trip.
I cannot print shipping labels on my computer for most International shipments, and those that will let me require information I do not have. Such as phone numbers. Even then, I go through the process and am denied in the end, so we just take International to the P.O. all the time now. This requires me to stand in line to get postage.
I have to fill out a customs form sometimes 2, which sometimes requires that I get out of line to fill out the customs forms and then back in line to Post the item. The P.O. no longer allows me to just say lothingon a label they want me to say what the item is. I fudge a bit like saying antsor hirtinstead of antiesor eddieso to insure your privacy. So far this has not caused any problems.
PayPal charges extra on International payments for currency conversion and we only accept Paypal or U.S. cash on International sales.
Taken together, I think $2.00 Handling charge more than fair for International shipping.
Considering I may make nothing and most likely lose money for an hour or more of my time and effort.

If you do not think it reasonable, then do not bid.

Remember Global Priority offers NO insurance and must be under 4 pounds and only selected Countries will accept Global Priority. No insurance possible.
The cheapest rate is AIR LETTER POST but there is also no insurance possible. There are severe weight and size limitations.
If you require insurance, another method of shipment (AIR PARCEL POST) must be requested and the cost will be considerably more. Also the insurance charges must be added. Some countries do not offer insurance.

Base your bids on the quoted rates plus handling as described unless you choose to add insurance or want a faster delivery method. Then either contact me for quotes or look them up yourself at www.USPS.com

Our quoted flat rates are generally the lowest Air Rate available without insurance plus $2.00 handling and the minimum we charge on International shipments, no matter the postage, is $7.50 US currency. This is the minimum see the rates quoted or calculated for actual shipping costs.
Recently (June 2006) I had a French buyer that was irate at my international charge for flat rate saying he had bought 2 panties from diferent sellers and got them priority at $4.00 from each seller. How could I justify $7.50 and I should either charge less on shipping or lower the price of the item he wanted. A vintage Panty listed at $9.99.
Now that was a lie as the cheapest priority to France is a small flat rate envelope at $5.25 without any added fees. So I doubt he got priority and if he did he paid more than he said. Next, as to lowering the price on the panty. Well it was a true vintage pinup pantie that I had listed on my web site for $55.00 I'd already come down to a starting bid of $10.00. What more does he want? My first born? The panties eventually sold to a reseller in Texas (some vintage boutique) for $33.00. Where they are most likely marked at over $100.00 and will most likely sell for that too. Don't get me wrong I realize eBay is just a huge garage sale where everything is sold for far less than it is worth, but I am not going to just give it away for free. If he doesn't think my prices are fair he can shop elsewhere and he now does as I have blocked him from my auctions. I mean get real, he knew as well as I did that these panties were worth a hundred dollars and he is giving me a bad time over a $2.00 handling fee????? Get real. The vintage boutique in Texas will make a tidy profit and more power to them. They saw the value in these pinup panties and picked them up for a song at $33.00 plus shipping. I made a few dollars as most items I list at cost or thereabouts hoping the bidding will show a profit. And the guy in France??? Well you figure it out.

Any Customs, Duties, or related fees are on you the buyer.
If 'YOU' wish to choose another method of shipment based on delivery speed or insurance needs then DO NOT CHECK OUT! Contact me for an adjusted rate and new invoice to reflect the change you want.
We reserve the right to deny any requests and ship as we feel appropriate. Though we try to honor any requests, sometimes it is not practical.
(For example: Say we have packed a glass vase of considerable size in a very large box with a LOT of bubble wrap and tape and such expecting to ship it Domestic Parcel Post or International AIR Parcel Post and you decide you want Global Priority for faster delivery but are not willing to pay for Express mail. The box may be too large to qualify, the weight may be too high, or the effort of repacking is just not worth it.
Each Country and sometimes each County or postal zone within a Country has a different rate, so the USPS calculated rates are not always accurate, but I will say they get it right most of the time. There are times however when we underestimate the costs. Though if we do, we will abide by our quoted rate and ship at the price quoted. "Flat Rates Only" Though if it goes the other way we will most likely not refund the difference unless it is considerable.
If you want the item shipped in a manner of 'YOUR' choice and desire the exact amount of shipping and insurance prior to bidding. You need to contact me 72 hours prior to auction close or by 9.00 AM Friday morning ( or any day prior to a holiday) my time (Pacific Time U.S.A.) to get exact quote. I will need your Country, County, Address with zip or postal zone code, and in some cases a phone number, just as it appears on your PayPal account. I will not run to the P.O. on Saturday as I have activities with my kids, besides our P.O. has no attendant on duty on Saturday just open for a short time for access to P.O. boxes and it is closed Sunday. Also I may have other obligations on Friday, so the sooner you ask the better the chance I will find time to get to the Post Office to get an answer.
If you cannot contact me use the rate charts at www.USPS.com and add $2.00. (Refer to shipping methods we allow above)

For standard international shipping:
The postage rate calculator is set up for Domestic shipping, it does not allow you to reset it to International S&H so You need to add $2.00 to any rate that shows on the International calculated rates. If the rate is shown as a flat rate then that is the rate you should use. Only calculated rates are off.
If you bid and win without contacting me (for any reason) for exact rates, you agree to pay USPS rates plus $2.00 Handling, no matter what those rates may be, or a non-paying bidder will be filed and negative feedback left.
If you pay an automated invoice and do not add the extra handling you will be asked to remit the difference or a non-paying bidder will be filed and negative feedback left. I always send my own invoice, even on Domestic, though many pay on the auto-generated one. Just remember $2.00 handling on International and everything should be fine.
You cannot adjust the invoice so you need to wait for a new one.
I've had a few Canadians pay on the auto-generated one and shipped the item anyway cause the rate to Canada is not that much more than U.S. But I will no longer do this either, as it is unfair to other International bidders. Canada is an International shipment and even though the rate is lower than Europe or Australia I will no longer accept payments that do not include my International handling charges as I still have to find and use a different box than domestic priority.
Some items the handling charge will be greater due to the need for different packaging.
Also we will NOT lie on Customs forms, as to value or item though we may fudge the item a bit for your privacy we will not go so far off topic as to be criminal. Like saying they are pants when it is a valuable collectable figurine. So do not bother asking.
We take no responsibility for loss or damage in shipment so if this is a concern we suggest Air parcel post with insurance.
Remember to figure shipping into your bid!
If you do not agree with these terms do not bid.

Domestic Buyer's start here again.

Winning Bidder must complete eBay checkout within 72 hours (3) three days of close of auction and/or email and inform me of payment method, Ship To: address, and any special instructions; INCLUDE YOUR RETURN EMAIL ADDRESS as eBay does not allow enough characters to fully detail instructions. PLEASE contact me within 3 days and PLEASE include your email address so we can communicate without limitation. I can get it through eBays send invoice page but it is just easier to include it. (This is just common courtesy and lets me know payment is on the way. Besides if you intend to send payment it will take up to a week to arrive.)
Also Payment must be received within (7) SEVEN days or the item will be re-listed and a non paying bidder complaint filed as well as negative feedback left. I send out reminders and past dues but if I receive no response I do the non-paying bidder without hesitation. Just being honest. Can't handle it? Don't Bid!

Simply put;
Do not bid if you do not intend to follow through.

Most often it is a Newbie who made an honest mistake or a seasoned vet with good reason, like the Lady that bid on the Wedding Dolls only to find the Wedding called off. But some are just caught up in the bidding, then have buyers remorse because they think they overpaid. Or failed to figure shipping into their bid like the person from Italy that bid and won an $8.00 glass creamer and plate but found shipping to be $21.50 Air Letter Post with no insurance. They were very unhappy but is it my fault they did not read the listing, or contact me, or figure shipping into their bid?
As a bidder you can do a bid retraction before close of Auction by going to the 'Site Map', 'Buying Resources', 'Bid retractions'.
Do NOT check the box that you "Could not contact Seller" unless it is true. Because I will turn you in to eBay for abusing the system if you blame me when it is not true. ( Best to mark another reason )
If the auction closes and you want out, it better be for good reason!
DO NOT PAY, contact me!!!
We can do a mutual withdrawal and though I get my final value fees back I lose my listing fees. If you pay using Paypal I am out Paypal fees as well. There are still outs but why should I pay for your mistakes? I don't throw money away graciously so it had better be one hell of an excuse or you had better be prepared to pay my fees. Best to be honest if want me to even think of rolling over. The "Oh, I didn't mean to bid." Ain't gonna cut it, cause you had to enter the bid twice. Once to bid, once to confirm. You may think it a mistake after the fact but, it wasn't a mistake when you did it.

I have a pretty good feedback rating on both my sites tamicraft and tamidesign and I believe it is due to the fact that I lay it all out there. No misinterpretations. I am an honest seller and all I ask is an honest buyer who stays in touch. I'll bend over backwards to make you a satisfied customer but I will not be taken advantage of, nor impune my honesty to placate a dishonest or disgruntled buyer who will not read nor follow instructions. I'd rather take the neg.

An automated invoice with instructions on payment options will be generated by PayPal and/or eBay. If you want to checkout right away you can. If we have discussed any deviations from the norm, I will send a personal confirmation email and invoice to the Winning Bidder. Unless I see that payment has already been made I will send my own invoice through eBay so you may wind up with two invoices for the same item. If they are different, pay on the one I sent.
Another confirmation upon receipt of payment so you know I got the check or other payment.

I will leave feedback when you have done so. All Payment methods require the funds be verified as transferred to our account before we ship the item. We may receive your payment but it may take 2 weeks or more for it to clear the bank. So PLEASE be patient if paying with Money Order or Cashiers Check or any method other than cash or Paypal or Bidpay.
I will send notification of shipment when I've sent the item. Usually next business day after payment transfer verification.

We do not hold a bidder hostage to positive feedback but I do not leave feedback till I receive feedback. I have grown weary of leaving feedback to everyone and receiving feedback for only about 1 in 4 sales.
My responsibility for the item ends at the Post Office. If there is a problem I would like the opportunity to make things right before you leave a negative feedback.

Contact me for shipping costs if they are not posted in the listing or there is no calculator.
If you do not receive an invoice within 48 hours check your bulk mail folder as it may have been filtered out. If you do not have an invoice within 48 hours contact me to send one as your item may have been overlooked.
Alaska and Hawaii may incur additional charges on oversized packages.

Insurance is optional but strongly advised. We accept no responsibility for damage or loss due to any method of shipment. Please be sure to insure your item for the full value. Insurance does not cover Shipping and Handling. You, the buyer, need to verify you have included the proper amount for insurance. This added charge is the buyers responsibility. Also note that items over $250.00 will require signature confirmation to qualify for Paypal's Buyer Protection Program and any added charges would be the buyers responsibility.
Our quoted rate for S&H includes only simple USPS confirmation on purchases of $249.99 or less.
Signature Confirmation $250.00 and up or Registered Mail $5000.00 and up will be extra, so do not checkout till you have confirmed what the additional charges will be on purchases equal to or greater than $250.00. Send me an email and I will send an invoice reflecting the additional charges.

See insurance rate chart at http://www.usps.com/send/waystosendmail/extraservices/ optionalserviceandfeaturefees.htm#InsuredMail

Regarding Insurance
(Just use some common sense. Why pay $1.35 to insure a $4.00 item when you can't get the $6.05 shipping back anyway? You are going to wind up getting $4.00 back after having paid $11.40. (And if you think about it you paid an extra $1.35 for the item, so in reality you really are only getting $2.65 back. Is It worth it?) Of course it is always your decision. Il purchase the insurance if you send the money no matter the cost of the item.

You must have a valid USPS address and make yourself or someone you trust available if signature confirmation is required. If you use a P.O. Box it is your responsibility to ensure they will accept shipments. Returned items for failure to have a valid address or sign for your item or any other reason, will require you pay additional shipping to return the item to you, or forfeit the item. No Refund. Payment for additional shipping must be made within (7) seven days, or you forfeit the item and there is no refund.

Also bear in mind that if you have the option and choose Parcel Post or other ground delivery for shipment, it can take up to two weeks for delivery. We do not recommend Parcel Post on Fragile items as there is more handling and more chance for breakage. So, in some rare cases waiting for payment clearance and slow shipping, it can take up to 30 days to receive your item.
This is why we recommend you pay using PayPal (cash at your own risk) and we ship 1st Class or Priority whenever possible.
If you read the negative feedback for most items from other Sellers, the most common complaint is that it took too long to arrive or slow shipment.
YOU choose the payment method and we try to use First Class or Priority whenever possible and go to the Post Office whenever necessary. No special mailing dates.
PLEASE do not blame us if you choose a slow shipping option and a slow payment verification method.
We ship on confirmation from PayPal usually within 24 hours. but bear in mind that PayPal eCheck will take a week to clear.

Fraudulent checks and credit card reverses will be treated the same as non-paying bidder, in addition the proper authorities will be notified.

We do not ship to any address other than that certified by Paypal when using Paypal to make payment. It is your responsibility to ensure the correct address is on file.
If you are purchasing this as a gift for someone and want delivery to a different address than that which is on record with Paypal, you will need to use an alternate payment method.
UNLESS, Having said that.....
I will ship to an alternate address provided you send me a personal email requesting the change and an email through eBay messages so I can verify it is you who is requesting the change. (2 emails) There will be no Paypal guarantee and if you do not purchase insurance do not complain if there is a problem.
I had a lady request I send to a different address than that on file and when I asked her to confirm by email she got all upset with me. I did not care who got the item, I was paid, I was protecting 'HER' interests by asking for confirmation through eBay messages and personal email. Still she almost took my head off. Please do not be so quick to get upset, as it is "YOUR" interests I am trying to protect. To paraphrase she said: I paid for the f**king item and you will send the f**king thing anywhere I want you to, or by God Il kick your f**king ass and make sure you are known as the worst seller on ebay.After that little note I was about to send her money back and keep the item and place her on my blocked buyers list. But instead I did send the item to where she wanted and then placed her on my blocked buyers list so I no longer have to deal with her. I ask you is it fair to subject me to this when it is her interests I am trying to protect. I had my money, It could have gone to Timbuktu as far as I cared. But No, I did care, and that is why I ask for verification if sending to a different address that that on record. Instead of the verbal abuse all she had to do was confirm the new ship to address in her email and through eBay messages. Would that have been so difficult? No, she had to be a bitch, well I can be one too.
"Treat others the way you would want to be treated" is a motto we live by, but remember, "What goes around comes around".

Refund policy:

We try to give you good information and good pictures so you can make a truly informed decision. All items that have moveable parts or electronics are tested or a disclaimer that we were unable to test will be posted. Clothing measurements are always posted but if you want more measurements just send me an email. Remember you are buying based on Descriptions and Photos and all items are sold AS IS. This is not as bad as it sounds. AS IS refers to the condition of the item. If you are purchasing clothing and even with all the measurements you find it does not fit we do accept returns but you must abide by our return policy. It will cost you in shipping and fees but in some cases this may be preferable compared to whatever you paid for the item. We do not refund on returned items for any reason including bad ship to: addresses. This would be for failure to sign for an item or a bad address (you move, forget to update with ebay or Paypal and the new resident returns it or worse keeps the item or you transposed the address and the P.O. returns it...etc.
NEW products may be covered under a manufacturers warranty for defective product. See listing for details.
