~ RARE RUSSIAN CUCKOO CLOCK IN WORKING ORDER ~
Here I have a rare Russian Cuckoo Clock
I had all the info on it but not any more unfortunately
I know nothing about cuckoo clocks
I bought two from an estate overseas and am selling the other one as well which is quite different to this one
This hangs on the wall and has all the bits that dangle down
I haven't set it up as it came to me with all the bits wrapped and tagged
Too big of a job to put it together
Especially when I don't know what I'm doing
I might damage something so not risking it
Then pull it to bits again
So it is not shown in all its glory
The dangley bits weigh heaps so it cost me a fortune to ship out here
I have no idea how old it is
I was told it is rare
And surely any cuckoo clock in Australia is rare
You hardly ever see them
On the front is "Majak, and Made in USSR"
Measurements are 28.2 cm high x 24.3cm widest point across x 12.5 cm deep
The box part is timber painted a red and white although the front has a pink tinge to it
The door and circular piece holding the numbers appear plastic
The numbers and the hands appear to be a metal of some sort
Gold & black in colour and a bit of dottiness to the surface
The bird appears tin, like a tin toy
It's yellow and very cute
My greatest regret is that I never saw it set up and working
Sorry not to show it to you in it's full glory
Set up on the wall but I think this is best left to the new owner
I reckon it will look absolutely fabulous
 

Net Weight = Under ?? Grams - Allow 100 to 500 Grams Packing for single item

GUESS = 5000 GRAMS PACKED

I PREFER TO SEND BY COURIER WHICH INCLUDES INSURANCE AND TRACKING AND OFTEN WORKS OUT CHEAPER

PS: IF YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT BIDDING BY PROXY, LOOK IT UP ON EBAY. IT ALLOWS YOU TO
PLACE A MAXIMUM BID AND FORGET ABOUT IT UNTIL BIDDING IS OVER~IT'S REALLY GOOD

PLEASE DON'T PAY UNTIL I INVOICE YOU

BULK PURCHASES ARE WELCOME AND COURIER MAKE IT WORTHWHILE

YOUR ITEM WILL BE SENT BUY COURIER IN OZ WHERE PLAUSIBLE
BECAUSE THAT'S THE WAY TO GO

IN MOST CASES YOU GET MUCH MORE FOR YOUR MONEY

INSURANCE IS INCLUDED

I CHARGE YOU LESS THAN COST PRICE AS AN INCENTIVE TO USE COURIER

I CAN HAVE A BOX WITH YOUR NAME ON IT, TO BE ADDED TO OVER, SAY 2 WEEKS

CLICK ON THE COURIER LINK

http://www.fastway.com.au/1HomepageGeneric.html

YOU ADD THE DEPARTURE PLACE = ALBURY, YOUR TOWN & POSTCODE

DON'T WORRY ABOUT DIMENSIONS AND

ENTER 3KG = YOU GET ALL THAT WILL FIT IN IT YOU CAN FILL THAT A3 SATCHEL

THEY TAKE PARCELS UP TO 5 & 25 KG

TRY ENTERING 5 KG AND 25KG

IT'S SIGNATURE DELIVERY SO AN ACTUAL PERSON MUST ACCEPT THE ITEM

THEY DON'T GO TO ALL PLACES OR ANOTHER COURIER MAY NEED TO BE ENGAGED MAKING IT TOO EXPENSIVE

THEY MIGHT DELIVER CHEAPER 15 MINUTES UP THE ROAD FROM YOU & I THINK ITS WORTH A LOOK &/OR IT COULD BE CHEAPER

THE PERSON ACCEPTING THE ITEM SHOULD CHECK FOR DAMAGE IN TRANSIT BEFORE SIGNING FOR IT

DON'T SIGN FOR OR ACCEPT A DAMAGED ITEM

IT'S A BETTER DEAL AND I PASS SAVINGS ON TO YOU & CHARGE LESS THAN COST

CLICK ON THE POSTAL LINK

http://www1.auspost.com.au/pac/

DOMESTIC SATCHELS ARE LIMITED TO THE STATED WEIGHT AND DIMENSIONS
I CHARGE $6 = UP TO 500 GRAMS & $10 = UP TO 3KG & $2.50 EXTRA FOR REGISTRATION

DOMESTIC PARCELS ARE WEIGHED AND DIMENSIONS, IF ABLE TO BE CUBED, ARE ADDED TO THE COST

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS IT'S JUST WEIGHT TO YOUR DESTINATION, NO CUBING

I USE SCALES AND TRY TO BE ACCURATE BUT IT'S AN ESTIMATE REALLY AND MAY NOT MATCH WHAT THE PO CHARGES
IF I'M OUT BY A LONG SHOT I AM HAPPY TO REFUND THE DIFFERENCE; YOU ONLY NEED TO ASK

MY PACKING IS FIRST CLASS
IF YOUR ITEM ARRIVES BROKEN IT IS BECAUSE OF POOR HANDLING, NOT POOR PACKING
IN THE CASE OF A BROKEN ITEM FROM THE POSTAL SYSTEM, IN AUSTRALIA AT LEAST, TAKE YOUR ITEM
WITH THE PACKING TO THE LOCAL POST OFFICE & MAKE A CLAIM. YOU ARE ENTITLED TO HAVE YOUR ITEM DELIVERED IN ONE PIECE

YOU MAY HAVE ANY SORT OF DELIVERY YOU LIKE, IT'S YOUR CHOICE
IF YOU CHOOSE A POSTAL SYSTEM THAT IS NOT ABLE TO BE TRACKED AND IT DOES THE VANISHING ACT, YOU WILL HAVE TO TAKE THE LOSS OF IT IN TRANSIT ON THE CHIN BECAUSE I OFFER SECURE MEANS OF SENDING.

ALL ITEMS UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE ARE SECOND HAND, AGED OR ANTIQUE AND WILL HAVE
SIGNS OF A PREVIOUS LIFE
I AM VERY HONEST AND DO MY BEST TO DESCRIBE MY ITEMS ACCURATELY
I WILL TELL YOU ABOUT FLEA BITE CHIPS, REPAIRS & DAMAGE ETC
I'M NOT AN EXPERT ON COLLECTIBLES OR BOOKS BUT I'D LIKE TO BE!
I'M AN ARTIST AND CAN SOMETIMES DETECT THINGS LIKE HAND PAINTING, IF AN ITEM IS MOLDED AND STUFF LIKE THAT

I SMOKE AND A CAT IS MY OWNER. I TRY TO KEEP THE ITEMS AND THOSE THINGS APART
I HAVE VIRTUALLY NO SENSE OF SMELL WHICH I CONSIDERED A BLESSING AS A NURSE
I DON'T WASH THINGS EITHER AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY SMELL LIKE
IF YOU DON'T LIKE THIS PLEASE DON'T BID OR BUY

BANK DEPOSIT AND PAYPAL IS AVAILABLE IN AUSTRALIA
PAYPAL ONLY FOR INTERNATIONAL BUYERS

    I TRY TO POST/SEND AT LEAST ONCE PER WEEK, NO PARTICULAR DAY AT THIS STAGE.

    FOR COURIER I DON'T HAVE TO LEAVE MY HOME. I PACK & POP IT OUT THE DOOR & IT GOES TO YOUR DOOR.

    PLEASE NOTE THAT I'M A BIT UNWELL AT THE MOMENT AND A BIT SLOW. I HAVE A WORK RELATED INJURY OR 2 AND IT'S BUGGERED ME RIGHT UP. CAN'T GET A "REAL"JOB. DON'T WANT TO BE DEPENDANT ON SOCIETY, RELIANT ON THE DOLE SO I'M EMPLOYING MYSELF DOING EBAY BECAUSE I WON'T BE CHUCKED ON THE SCRAP HEAP! WORKCOVER IS WONDERFUL. YOU'RE HANDED OVER TO THE BEST CARERS, INSURANCE COMPANIES, A BIT LIKE GETTING THE DINGO TO LOOK AFTER THE BABY!

    I OFFER MY HONESTY, I PACK PROPERLY AND TAKE THE BEST OF CARE IN MY EBAY INTERACTIONS. IF I MAKE A MISTAKE PLEASE GIVE ME A CHANCE TO FIX IT. I DON'T WANT ANYTHING BUT 5 STARS AND A TRUTHFUL REALLY GOOD COMMENT

    PLEASE DON'T LEAVE BAD FEEDBACK AS THERE IN NO NEED

    I OFFER EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO SORT MATTERS, MISTAKES ETC OUT IN A FRIENDLY AND FAIR WAY

~ I WANT ME ON YOUR FAVOURITES LIST ~

HAPPY BIDDING
