Selling ancient things on Ebay is hard. Anything that is genuinely old will have condition issues. We do our best on these descriptions. have no stomach for gamesmanship or trickery and my integrity is not worth few measly dollars. So all items are guaranteed for age and accuracy of description. But can't guarantee you will love what you buy or be happy with the price. Please read the entire ad, especially the condition report. Bid with knowledge and don't make assumptions not in evidence.
All items are photographed in indirect natural light to give the best approximation of "reality." But understand that "color" is subjective reified reality highly dependent on quality of light and intensity.
Unless otherwise arranged domestic items are shipped by UPS ground no later than the next business day after payment is received. UPS will not deliver to postal box. If you do not have street address you will have to come pick it up because can't ship this to you. All shipping quotes include insurance and packing material. charge actual shipping cost-- not penny more. My regular customers will vouch for the fact that WILL refund any overages after the smoke clears. Be apprised that purchase Heritage insurance for vintage instruments and spent $887 last year with Uline just for boxes and packing material. SHIPPING FEES ARE NOT NEGOTIABLE. Shipping discounts will apply for multiple purchases.
Foreign Ebayers: YOU MUST BE ABLE TO READ AND UNDERSTAND ENGLISH TO SHOP HERE! All foreign shipping is via USPS. They will not guarantee delivery time on overseas shipments; foreign shipments cannot be accurately tracked; and things sometimes get held up in customs. With overseas shipping there are myriad forces beyond my control. International shipping is risky and slow at best. Non US buyers simply must be patient on delivery times and (hopefully) understanding if things get mucked up.
I pledge to be prompt, polite, considerate, and conscientious about communication both before and after the sale. will ALWAYS send ETA and tracking info the moment ship.
