NOTE: Due to eBay’s mandatory “Good till Canceled” policy for fixed-price listings, we reserve the right to end Fixed Price listings at any time so to better control our rotating on-line inventory, which represents only a fraction of our stock. For items we auction, if you don't want to wait until the end, we will consider “best offers” (at the starting bid or higher) on most lots if no one else has bid. If you are interested in an item, please don’t wait too long, because if it is removed from our eBay store, it might not re-appear for weeks, months … or years! Please note that most of the items we stock are one of a kind in our inventory -- once it's gone, it's gone.
We will gladly combine shipping where possible. For best rate, please request an invoice from us before paying.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:
Please let us invoice you with shipping fee, as calculated rate is often inaccurate. You will not pay more but may pay less.
International Buyers – Please Note:
Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying.
Also – note that we complete all customs forms accurately and truthfully – no exceptions, so please don’t ask.
