TIE TALK: RESERVE Men SILK HORSE HEAD CHESS PAWN KNIGHT

    TIE TALK

What does this tie say about you?

"I love playing games - I'll be your knight in shining armour if you will be my queen!"

Widest point 9.25 cms.  Condition - very good - some slight clouding at knot area 59 cms up from tip, see last photo.

Colour: main colours navy, blue and white.

 Would be a standout with a white or blue shirt.

 Silk, made in Australia.

Unless otherwise stated, all ties are secondhand and may not be suitable for gifts. The condition of the tie refers to the front, being that section as far as the first join. Occasionally I will list ties with imperfections on the front section but too good to leave in the cupboard - any faults will be noted.    

 Australia:  bank deposit or PayPal.  International: PayPal only.

Payment to be initiated within 5 days of auction end. It's possible to include several auction end dates  - contact me after first win.

Yes, I can combine postage:

Australia: $2.50 for 1 tie, add $1.50 for each extra tie.

4 - 8 ties in 500g satchel for a cost of  $7, ie  FREE post  for 5, 6, 7, 8.

 Asia Pacific: $4.50 for 1 tie, $2.50 each extra tie.

America/Canada: $6 for 1 tie, then $2.50 each extra tie.

Europe: $6 for 1 tie, $3 each additional tie.

Australia only: I do my best to ensure your tie arrives in a ready to wear state but if you have purchased 1 or 2 heavyweight quality ties and would prefer them rolled and sent parcel rate, rather than folded as a large letter, please ask me to adjust the invoice.  Your item will be shipped within 48 hours of confirmed payment.

Postage and Handling

Australia:  I post in a  tough bag at a cost of $1.10 plus  $1.10 postage for a large letter which leaves a handling fee of 30c.  

International:  Post Office requires a customs declaration stating contents and value so handling fee includes driving to PO, queueing, etc. Unfortunately there is no tracking system with ordinary mail.

I'm happy to refund if your item does not match its description.

Buyer to pay return postage costs.

I am currently the vice-president of the Tie Society of Australia.

 That doesn't mean I know everything about ties but I know what I like and in September,2008 my collections were featured on "The Collectors" on ABC TV.

 So, if you are a focalologist like me, a person with an interest in ties, you might want to compare ties and remember:

"The tie must go on"

Please feel free to contact me with any questions prior to bidding.
