I ship out within two days of orders unless you pay on the weekend. If that is the case I will ship out the following Monday unless it is a holiday. (which as previously stated, I strive to get it out and in mail asap and usually within one day)

Merchandise information:
All my items come from garage sales, estate sales, clearances and auctions and could contain very light scratching or marks from being a used item. If these are noticeable or unordinary I will note it up above. If it says new it has came to me in original packing or boxing through auctions, estate sales, store clearances or garage sales but still will be a new item never used. If I think it was used I will tell you that. Used or new, all the same to me when it comes to being an sale item.
All clothing, unless noted by me, has come from garage sales and are USED clothing. I always wash them when I get home from my journeys. They come as described and measured in description. Please ask questions if in doubt. I do best I can to insure this is right.
Free shipping means free shipping for the item only that is free shipping..:)....
All free shipping is for USA orders only, Absolutely no Non-USA/International orders are free shipping which include Puerto Rico (Sorry); if you live in Hawaii or Alaska, there will be an additional charge for shipping this item, so please wait for the invoice to be sent or it will be cancelled/not sent until correct amount is paid...Sorry for inconvenience and thanks
All my things comes as pictured and if with flaws it the will be shown and/or described beforehand. Please look at pictures and ask questions before bidding.
I ship out within two days of orders unless you pay on the weekend. If that is the case I will ship out the following Monday unless it is a holiday. (which as previously stated, I strive to get it out and in mail asap and usually within one day)
Shipping:
(The price charged for shipping is none negotiable. I don’t make the prices on shipping or supplies, I just have to make them work for you and me....Sorry if you don't agree but if there is a significant difference in the shipping to your area I will refund it to you, but upon my decision. I do not make the prices it cost to ship any item plus the cost of packing it, packing materials and printing materials, which I supply from my costs. Please be aware of all this if you should disagree, I do like to make deals but cannot pay for the shipping costs unless it is for a free shipping item..:)....)
Combine shipping:
I do combine shipping, but only if you are in the process and/or have bought other things within 4 days of each other.
Combined shipping doesn’t mean I can ship everything for the same amount of highest priced item or that if it states free shipping on one and not on the other that it will be free shipping for all items.
FYI-I will not combine shipping on any merchandise that isn’t paid within the 3 day grace period that permits. I will bill all combined items separately if this happens….SORRY- but I think if you can bid and win something and get a discount you should be paying attention to your purchases and only allowed the discount if you pay within that time!!!
It means I will send an invoice with the shipping price on it which will be cheaper than shipping all items separately. As long as the two items are not extremely heavy it will be between $2 to $3 for each additional item.
Payment information:
I will need the payment within 3 days of the final piece being won and if there is a delay in payment I will need to know asap especially when combining orders and I will not ship over 3 items on any order or whatever can be shipped safely together because this helps cut down on breakage problems. I don’t like refunding money, disputes or you getting broken items. I will try to make it as efficient as possible but I need to make sure it gets to you in as good as condition as I send it out in.
Packaging:
(I do recycle boxes and packaging materials…so remember that when ordering from me, your items could be in boxes or packaging materials like this; all in good clean shape though!!!)
Shipping and handling:
All items on invoices will be shipped together and not with other orders if already paid for.
The shipping and handling charges also reflect my time(which I strive to get it out and in mail asap and usually within one day if before 10 am. Texas time.), boxes, packing materials(tape, paper, wrapping), printing materials, all auction fees and shipping/handling charges which have become unbelievably high lately, so please understand I do not like them but they are fair and I don‘t bargain on them. The bargain is in the item itself.....:)....
I ship all items wrapped in bubble wrap and use newspaper or old magazines for padding. Bubble wrap or brown backing paper is all that will com into contact with this item. I use these items to recycle and to keep costs down so I can also offer the lowest price per item . If you have an issue with any of these products, please do not bid on my sales. I will assure you that I package every item the same whether you spent $1,000 or $1! I use a lot of bubble wrap, tape and paper as I want the treasure you have purchased to arrive in perfect condition.
Shipping is listed as Standard, I will ship either FedEx or USPS with tracking. I always TRY to ship the same day cleared payment is received. I am known to be a super FAST s
hipper! I will try to combine shipping if I am notified at auction end. If you need a faster shipping option or need it shipped by a specific carrier, please let me know and I will send an adjusted invoice

RETURNS:
Please note: any returned merchandise (new, unused or great used) has to be in same condition when returned-Do not return any merchandise until contact between us .......thanks!
Buyer return policy:
I need to be contacted before sending anything back to me. I may not require it sent to  me and may require a picture of the item if it has a problem/break instead. I will not pay for postage if you send it back without a negotiation between us first. I need to know the situation first and will return it back to you at your expense if you do not let me know the situation first. I will do everything possible to make you a happy person but you have to cooperate with me also...:).......
If I do ask for it to be sent back I will need a picture of the item texted/messaged to me before sending it to me so I know the condition the item is in. You will be responsible for the condition of the item/items in the mailing back process, just as I am responsible for the condition of the item getting to you an acceptable condition.
Problems with order:
(Please, if ever a problem with your order, message me first, so we can resolve it together. I do know things happen when shipping items, so it is important I know whats going on so I can help with the problem. If I don’t know about a problem then how can I help?)
Please remember, I am only human and I give respect when given respect and know with any problem it can be worked out so please let me know so we can try to work through it...:)....
I do the best I can to make sure that all my items are described right. I do make mistakes and I will make it right if my fault. I will also make sure in my descriptions if I need to mail a certain way that you know this or I will message you beforehand. My feedback reflects the fact I care and try to do the best to my ability to do this thing I love………Auctioning and garage sale treasure hunting!!!!!
