1.
Paypal (Use bank account funds or credit

2. Propay (Use your credit card
online & you don't have to sign up for an account. Use your credit
card like you would when you shop at the mall, etc.)
Checks and cash are not accepted.
I usually don't accept International bidders and payments.
WHEN
TO EXPECT YOUR PACKAGE:
I try to get packages
out the day I receive payment but there are times that it might
take an extra day or two at the most. I do not ship on the weekend.
Some days are harder on me than others so please try to be patient
with me (I've never been chastised for a late package...usually
I'm praised for fast shipments)
FEEDBACK:
I give glowing feedback
on ebay! I love to help people out with increasing their positive
feedback. As soon as you leave feedback for me, I'll know that
the transaction is fully complete and then I'll be able leave
feedback for you in return.
SHIPPING
INFORMATION:
I ship through the post
office, unless it's a real heavy item. Heavy items can *usually*
be sent cheaper through UPS.
I use Delivery Confirmation on ALL packages, even when I have to pay
for it myself.
Insurance is optional at your
expense. I am not responsible for items damaged during shipping
or ones that have been lost or stolen. If you have me purchase
insurance for you, and something happens to your package en route
to your home, I'll get a copy of the insurance receipt and send
you the original and getting things settled from there on out
is between you and the post office. My liability ends once your item(s) leaves my hands. The rates for insurance with USPS are:
$1.75 for pkg's that are worth between a penny to $50.00.
$2.25 for pkg's that are worth between $50.01-$100.00
$2.75 for pkg's that are worth between $101.00-$200.00
$5.70 for pkg's that are worth between $300.01 to $400
$6.70 for pkg's that are worth between $400.01 to $500
$7.70 for pkg's that are worth between $500.01 to $600
$7.70 plus $1.00 per $100 or fraction thereof over $600 in
declared value for pkg's that are worth between $601.00 to $5000.00
(maximum liability is $5,000)
You can go to the USPS site to calculate shipping charges. All
items will be shipped from zip code 77841.
(see below for links to the American Shipping Rate
Calculutor and the International one.)
RETURN
POLICY:
Like all auctions in
your town, eBay auctions are the same: Sales should be considered
final. I am honest in my descriptions and list every flaw I can
find. I won't accept returns unless major flaws are accidentally
omitted from the listing. If I've made a minor goof, I'll give
you some money or add an extra item in your shipment. If I've
made a major goof, then it would be at my expense to refund you
your auction money AND your shipping charges (most ebay sellers
won't do that.) Depending on what the item is, I'll either pay
for return shipping or let you keep the item. "Buyers remorse"
isn't permitted. Again, please know that I am an honest woman.
I don't believe in hiding a flaw so that I can sell an item.
If I see a flaw, you're going to know about it.
PERSONAL
STUFF ABOUT ME:
I LOVE eBay! I am admittedly
a shopaholic. What I find the most fun is buying things on ebay,
of course, and at thrift stores and garage sales. Once in awhile
I'm able to attend an auction. If I ever win the lottery, I would
still purchase items at those places I just mentioned because
I just enjoy it so much! I told this to my husband one time and
he said "Nah, if we won the lottery you'd be able to shop
at expensive places and buy whatever you want brand new."
LOL He just doesn't understand women, does he? I guess I would
buy some brand new things but I'd be busy looking through the
sales racks and then I'd spend the rest of the day at my thrift
stores and garage sales! LOL
I'm 49, married to the most wonderful man in the world (albeit
he isn't too keen about my shopaholicism and salesaholicism,
hehe) and I have 3 kids and 3 grandkids. I also have ex step children that I
raised for 10 years of their childhood that I adore and will
always love.
I'm not able to work
outside the home because of many health problems. I have Fibromyalgia,
CFIDS/CFS, Plantar Faciitis, Peripheral Neuropathy, Mitral Valve
Prolapse (benign bad heart valve)... and the list goes on. Yes
I am a wreck! LOL
Chronic pain and fatigue is very debilitating. So eBay has been
a godsend to me! Setting my own hours and working from home is
wonderful! If you have Fibromyalgia or Chronic Fatigue Immune
Dysfunction Syndrome (also known as CFS "Chronic Fatigue
Syndrome") or know someone who does, there is a great website
that you might want to check out:

Another thing
you might like to know about me is that I'm an advocate for mental
health. It's time to erase the stigma of mental illnesses! I'd
like to mention a few words specifically about depression. Depression
isn't a matter of being sad, it is an actual physical illness
in the brain, which manifests itself by not only causing profound
sadness (that is putting it mildly), but it also causes the body
to slow down too much. You walk slower, you talk slower, you
think slower, you react slower. Your internal organs even become
sluggish or work improperly! This is all caused by faulty brain
chemicals. A depressed person can't pull themselves up by the
bootstraps by sheer will and determination, because depression
isn't a lack of will or a matter of being a weak person. If you
suffer from Depression or a Mood Disorder I'd like you to know
that you're not alone. There are some great websites on the internet
where you can find information and helpful support:

(Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance) (Formally known as
National Depressive and Manic Depressive Assocation)
http://www.nami.org (National Alliance for the Mentally
Ill)
