Payment and Postage
Paypal
is accepted and I do not add a surcharge to cover their fees. UK buyers
only may also pay by cheque or postal order. If it's a cheque, please
allow 7 to 10 days for it to clear. In exceptional circumstances it may
be possible for overseas customers to pay by another means such as bank
transfer by prior arrangement.
All buyers please make contact within 3 days of auction. Payment is required within 7 days.
Non-payment
All
non-paying bidders are, without exception, reported to eBay. This is
not for the sake of being vindictive, but because eBay charges
retrospective fees calculated on the actual sale price of items and
this money needs to be retrieved. It's hard enough to make ends meet on
here as it is! Thank you for your understanding. Please refer to eBay's
policy on non-payment for more information, including its ramifications
for the bidder.
Condition of items
Please
note that, unless clearly stated otherwise, my listings are for
vintage/antique items and therefore, by definition, are not going to be
in the same condition you would expect from a brand new item. Please be
assured that I always endeavour to offer the most accurate description
possible of the item's condition and take multiple illustrative
photographs.
Vintage electrical items
Unless
clearly stated otherwise in the description, vintage electrical items
are sold in their original condition so should be safety checked by an
electrician before use.
Returns
Returns
are possible, if reported within 7 days and by prior arrangement, if a
mistake has been made in the listing and the item is not as described,
but for no other reason. I'm afraid that straightforward buyer's
remorse does not qualify and the cost of return postage is not included in any refund.
That's it...please don't hesitate to e-mail me to ask any questions not covered above; I always answer as quickly as possible.
Thanks very much for taking the time to read this and best of luck bidding!
