I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO SEND MY ITEMS VIA TRACKABLE MEANS – SHOULD AN ITEM/S REACH THE VALUE OF £34.00, THEN A TRACKABLE/INSURED SERVICE IS MANDATORY AND £3.50 EXTRA WILL BE CHARGED ACCORDINGLY.
UNPAID ITEM POLICY (REVISED 26.11.06)
FOLLOWING SEVERAL RECENT UNPAID ITEM DISPUTES, I HAVE REVISED MY UNPAID ITEM POLICY. IN FUTURE, IF PAYMENT IS NOT RECEIVED WITHIN 7 DAYS FROM THE END OF THE AUCTION, I WILL AUTOMATICALLY BEGIN THE UNPAID ITEM PROCESS.I APOLOGISE TO GENUINE E-BAYERS OUT THERE, BUT A RECENT DISPUTE HAS LEFT A VERY BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO PAY WITHIN THE 7 DAY LIMIT – PLEASE CONTACT ME WITH AN EXPLANATION, AND THEN IT IS NO PROBLEM. NO COMMUNICATON & NO PAYMENT WITHIN THE 7 DAYS = UNPAID ITEM DISPUTE.
Please also note, I DO NOT wrap or pack items until AFTER payment has been received. If, after wrapping and packing multiple purchases, I find that there has been excessive postage/shipping charges made, a refund WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE GIVEN.

INSIST ON USING STAMPS
PLEASE Copy and paste this message to all your listings
It is time that stamp collectors and stamp users fought back. We are not given the option normally by the Post Office. They want us all to use computer generated labels. But if you ask nicely you'll be able to get good commemoratives ... and possibly even a circular date stamp! Depending on service used. This will in the long run help our vast number of charities raise money by improving the content of the stamps donated to them.
PLEASE NOTE: I WILL NO LONGER SELL TO PORTUGAL
On 20-Sep-07 at 11:57:38 BST, seller added the following information:
As per Distance Selling Regulations, I accept returns and accept the buyer has the right to cancel the purchase within seven working days after the day they receive the item. To this end, ALL items will be sent by trackable means so that I am able to verify that I have not broken those regulations.
On return of items in the same condition as they left me, AND A MUTUAL CANCELLATION OF THE E-BAY TRANSACTION, a full refund will be made, including the original postage, HOWEVER, return postage will not be refunded.
If however, I have made a mistake, then both original AND return postage will be refunded.
In the unlikely event of an item going astray, or being damaged during transit, then I will deal with the problem as it is my responsibility to get the item to you.
This however, must be with the full co-operation of the buyer (ie if an item goes astray, the buyer agrees to co-operate with the carrier to ascertain non-receipt, or if an item/s arrives damaged, then photos will be supplied of the item and all of the original packaging, which must be kept, or even possibly returned, for a claim to be successful).
I respectfully request that, should there be any issues, please contact me before leaving negative feedback, so I can resolve the issue.
I would also ask that when completing the DSRs for the transaction, that the buyer would realise that this can seriously affect a seller's ability to sell, and/or the visibility of their items.
Personally, I charge very little, if anything for packaging, and often pay more for postage than I charge you, the buyer.
Most Buy It Now purchases are protected by the Distance Selling Regulations, which allow you to cancel the purchase within seven working days after the day you receive the item. Find out more about your rights as a buyerand exceptions.
