Shipping:  Delivery confirmation and insurance are required for all purchases within the United States and insurance is required on all International shipments.  We're unable to give you final shipping costs since we cannot calculate the insurance cost before the close of the auction.  Please do not send your payment until you have received our invoice because if it doesn't cover the amount in full we will have to request further payment from you.  We will be pleased to combine shipping on multiple auctions - shipping costs based on packed weight and box size + insurance based on final sold value.  On small items we charge just $1.00 for packaging and handling, however, even though we make every effort to keep this cost down we do have to increase it depending on how much bubble wrap or other packing materials we have to use in order to keep your item safe in transit.  You have our assurance that we will be fair.  ALL other charges we quote are directly from the USPS  - please take this into account before you bid. Some of our items are on consignment so in most cases our descriptions are from what we see in front of us - we are not experts so please examine the pictures carefully before you bid as they are a very important part of our descriptions.  Let us know if we're in error - we appreciate other peoples expert advice.  Also, feel free to email us with your questions if you are unsure of any aspect of the item shown.   Happy Bidding to one and all, and please don't forget.... communicate with us if you have any questions.      Place a Bid!
