Please read the following, in view of Ebay’s latest rules and regulations that are designed for your protection. :

** PAYMENT OPTIONS: With Ebay changes:  Paypal or Direct Debit (PLEASE, for Direct Debit,  remember to EMAIL us after completing your payment  to confirm its completion, in order to speed the delivery of this item to you and, of course, avoid mutual embarrassment!).

 Should these options not suit, please EMAIL US BEFORE BIDDING or indeed, if an oversight, after bidding. We will always try to assist; there is invariably no problem.

** A general comment on POSTAGE and HANDLING COSTS: Please be aware that, in most cases, your purchase will arrive in an AUSTRALIA POST ‘Tough Bag’; it costs over $1.00, depending upon size, so please accept this when considering fair postage costs.

In addition, a charge of approximately $1.50 is added for possible additional packing and, frankly, the time taken to locate, pack, address and post your item. We estimate that we can pack around 10 items in an hour. Remember that we need to cross-check with Ebay for your address, AND  to confirm that the correct item is being sent.  Then the drive to and from the post office. And all for around $1.50, folks!

** A general comment on POSTAGE and HANDLING TIMES: Please read our feedback! Items are invariably posted either on the same day that payment is received (and, for Direct Debit, payment is confirmed), else the following day.

Naturally, once items are in the hands of Australia Post, they are out of our control, as they would be once you have placed something in the mail. That said, Australia Post are pretty good, with only Far North Queensland and Outback W.A. taking a little time.

Where possible we use an Australia Post 3kg satchel within Australia for purchases that weigh over 500grams, but up to 3kg. It is cost saving but may, according to Australia Post, “take an extra day or two”.  Handling charge for these is $1.90, only because of additional packaging necessities. Our experiences with satchels have again been, invariably, very positive. However, we ask that you accept this quoted  time allowance.

2 Useful Tips for ALL  Ebayers:

1: SEARCHING? Standard Ebay searches do NOT offer items in 'Ebay Stores', unless there are very few auction listings that can be offered. I have sometimes searched stores and paid around HALF of the best available price in auction listings.

 "Quick-moving" items will be found in auctions, but harder to find items, which may require several listings before sale, are at least as likely to appear in STORE listings, where listings cost the seller around 20% of the cost to list, and run for triple the time. Please feel free to view my store items, too! 

To do so, go to 'View Seller's other items' in the panel at the top right of this listing.

Combined shipping for multiple purchases saves, also!

2: BIDDING?  KEEP YOUR OPTIONS OPEN! When an Ebay item offers 'Buy It Now', you can prevent other bidders from 'stealing' the auction before you bid by placing a LOW bid. BUT!, of course, they may later outbid you and /or you may keep bidding, and ultimately pay MORE than the original 'Buy It Now' price. Tactics play a part in any auction; good luck with any bids. OR you can of course close the auction immediately, in your favour, by pressing the 'Buy It Now" button, instead of typing in your $$ bid.

Buyers within Australia may care to note that multiple purchases, when combined weight is up to 3kg, can be packed and shipped in an Aus Post satchel for $11.50 !!)

BUYERS PLEASE NOTE, also, that it is expected that PAYMENT is made within FIVE DAYS unless an arrangement has been made with us prior to bidding. For example, if you anticipate bidding on another of our listed items.

 If NO CONTACT has been made in this time, in fairness to other Ebay users, Ebay will be notified that you have defaulted. Please DO NOT bid if you cannot meet these fair and simple requirements.

Should an unforseen difficulty arise, then PLEASE LET US KNOW. We are very understanding. But, of course, we are not mind, readers. Thank you for your interest. Good luck if you bid!
