IMPORTANT ADDRESS INFORMATION: TO MAINTAIN EBAY SELLER PROTECTIONS, I AM REQUIRED TO SHIP TO THE OFFICIAL EBAY ADDRESS THAT COMES UP WHEN I GET READY TO SEND AN INVOICE OR PRINT A SHIPPING LABEL. SINCE I DO NOT SHIP INTERNATIONALLY (OUTSIDE THE USA), IF YOUR OFFICIAL ADDRESS IS NOT WITHIN THE USA, I WILL Have to CANCEL YOUR BID OR YOUR ORDER. Actual item(s) photographed. Discounted shipping for multiple purchases: If you want discounted shipping, BEFORE paying for your multiple banknote purchases, please look in your eBay “cart.” There is a link there to request a discounted shipping invoice (or you can send me a note through the eBay messaging system). Please pay after receiving your invoice. You can wait three days to pay before the automatic non-paying bidder process kicks in. IF YOU WANT MORE TIME TO BID ON MORE ITEMS, YOU MUST MESSAGE ME before you bid. My Seller FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions): Reading this now will save both of us time later because sellers are allowed some customization within their seller policies. Allergy Note: All lots come from a smoke free and cat free home but pre-owned items may have originated in different conditions. Cancellations: Anyone canceling more than one bid or requesting the cancellation of more than one purchase within a six-month period will be put on the blocked bidder list permanently out of fairness to all. Discounted Shipping: USA shipping only. I am happy to discount shipping on multiple purchases of similar weight if you message me to request a discounted invoice after your last auction concludes but before payment is sent. Please make this request through your “cart” or the eBay messaging system within 72 hours of the first win. Multiple large fragile items are not usually subject to this option because they often have to ship in separate boxes. Shipping and Return Policy: I can only ship to your official eBay address within the USA (the address that shows up when a seller looks at your eBay ID or tries to send you an invoice), no exceptions. I ship twice a week, usually on Monday and Thursday so shipping can take up to four days from the time of payment. Please bear this in mind, as well as the post office transit time estimates, when looking at arrival dates. You will always receive a tracking number from the eBay shipping system. Oklahoma residents and the residents of most other states are always subject to sales tax. In more than 20 years, my return policy has not changed. All sales are final - no returns or refunds unless there is a serious question of authenticity or a gross error in the description. Refunds are not available for differences regarding banknote, coin and medal grading opinions. Payment Reminder: eBay automatically cancels a transaction when payment fails to arrive within the required period. ABOUT FEEDBACK: My top priorities are answering email, writing accurate descriptions and the fastest possible shipping for my schedule. Feedback is important but not my priority. I leave feedback only once or twice a month in large groups to save time. All text and photos are copyrighted.
