SHIPPING INFORMATION I will be sending your item from CANADA. I normally send most items, which can be packed in a box measuring up to 12 x 12 x 9, by Priority or Express Mail with full value insurance, and delivery confirmation. If you want your item shipped by another method, please email me with special instructions. Please note that all shipping cost estimates are just that...estimates, as the item is not actually packed until it has been sold, and it's destination is known. Our shipping cost estimates are normally accurate, but, it may cost more to ship your item than we had thought. If this happens, you will be responsible to pay the additional shipping costs, and we will provide you with proof of the additional shipping costs upon request. If we discover that we have over charged you on shipping costs, we will refund the difference. PACKING AND HANDLING CHARGES As you know, shipping costs have been increasing these days. I don't attempt to make money on packing and shipping, but I do want to break even on providing these services. I do charge a minimum of $2, with the cost increasing depending on the size of the box, and materials required to pack the item properly. The larger and more fragile an item, the more it costs me to pack it properly. If an item is fragile, I pack it to survive the shipping according to the accepted standards required by the shipper, and also to the best of my ability. On expensive fragile items, we may need to double box them. This will require additional labor and material costs. I would rather pack your item properly to make sure that the item arrives intact, rather than to deal with a claim. In compliance with guidelines, we will now be requiring a signature confirmation on domestic shipping, and a return receipt with international shipping. These cost an extra $2.20. Also, insurance is not determined and added into the cost until after purchase. EVERY ITEM IS GUARANTEED TO BE AS DESCRIBED Every item I offer is guaranteed to be in as described condition, as written in my listings. I sell mostly antiques and collectibles, which will usually have the normal wear that you would expect to occur from normal use and age. You are guaranteed that there are no repairs, alterations, or damage, unless I specifically mention them in my condition report above. RECEIVING YOUR INVOICE If you are the buyer, I will send you an invoice with the total cost, including: packing labor, materials, shipping costs, insurance, and any additional related costs. If the listing ends over the weekend, you will normally receive an invoice on Monday. CUSTOMERS FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES We welcome your payment by Paypal. You must include any special mailing instructions with your payment. PAYING WITH PAYPAL I welcome your payment by Paypal. ONTARIO SALES TAX All Ontario residents must pay 13% sales tax. I am sorry, but there are no exceptions, as this is the law. PAYMENT FOR ITEMS I expect payment to be made within 7 days from the date of your invoice. SHIPPING OF ITEMS I do shipping at least once a week, and more often if possible. As you know, is making some shipping policy changes which we will be required to follow as they are implemented. SHIPPING COST SAVINGS I will pass on 100% of the savings to you, in the form of reduced shipping costs, which will show on the invoice for the additional item. PAYMENTS ON EXPENSIVE ITEMS With prior approval, I will consider a payment plan, as long as the transaction is completed in a time frame which conforms to new policy. REFUNDS DAMAGED ITEMS Refunds: If I misrepresent an item, such that it is worth less money due to an omission or error in my listing, you may return it for a full refund including all shipping costs, so you do not lose a dime. An example of this would be undisclosed existing damage, like a chip or crack. If the item description is in error, but it has no effect on it's monetary value, I may refuse to allow a refund. An example would be if the measurements were slightly off… if I state a vase is 10 1/2 inches tall, and you discover it is 10 3/8 tall, a refund would likely not be granted. Damaged Items: If your item is damaged in shipping, the shipper is responsible, but we will assist you with the claim process. You will need to save the box and packing materials to show the shipper. This is the proof that they require, so if you discard the packing materials, your claim may be denied. Shippers do not accept parcels packed in damaged boxes as a rule, so damage is normally evidenced by damage to the box.
