The buyer will pay all the postal and packaging costs
Please note that I am only too happy to combine items won in my auctions, and postage prices are heavily reduced in such instances. I use bubble envelopes, bubble wrap, foam pellets and shredded paper to pack items, and pack to a high standard.
UK postage is by Royal Mail 2nd class recorded delivery if 1000g or less, otherwise by Royal Mail 1st class recorded, Standard Parcels or Royal Mail Special Delivery depending on value of item being sent. I get proof of postage for every item, and, of course, recorded delivery/Special Delivery items can be track and traced via the internet.
OVERSEAS postage is Royal Mail Airmail. Items over 2kg cannot be sent by Royal Mail, and are passed over to Parcel Force, making the costs a lot higher. Please email me if you are concerned about the weight / postal cost of the item before bidding. I DO NOT send any items overseas by surface mail. There are several reasons that I find airmail better:
- Items are generally handled better
- Surface mail can take 8-14 weeks for a parcel to arrive, often preventing feedback from being left. Airmail takes approx 4-10 days
- Fewer parcels are lost in transit when sent airmail
All parcels sent overseas with a winning value of 0.00 or more will be sent International Recorded, so they can be tracked.
payment methods:
UK buyers may pay in the following ways:
- Cheque drawn from a UK bank.( All cheques WILL BE cleared before the item is sent off. This can take up to 7 days ).
- PAYPAL (No charge)
Overseas buyers may pay in the following ways:
- PAYPAL (No charge)
- A Personal cheque drawn from a UK BRANCH of your bank can be accepted, at no extra cost. I CANNOT ACCEPT ANY CHEQUES DRAWN FROM ANY FOREIGN/USA BRANCH OF A BANK.
MY COMMITMENT TO YOU THE BUYER:
I wish to make your purchase a stress free transaction. If you have ANY queries please feel free to email me with a question for seller. I will try to email you back within 24 hours, but please, please, do not leave your questions until the last moment.
I only leave feedback once I am notified of the parcel's arrival (this is when I consider the transaction completed), whether this is by you leaving feedback or notifying me through email. If you are not happy with the item, please let me know BEFORE leaving feedback, and WITHIN 48 HOURS of receiving it. I will endeavour to assist with any problems.
I try hard to describe items to the best of my ability. 99% of my stock is from house clearances, so please be aware that nearly all of my auctions are for used / second hand. Even so, if you consider an item sent to you is below the standard stated in the auction, please let me know.
Above all, I am only human. We all have our off days and oh-so-great days. We can all catch a cold and be off work for a few days. Please be patient if for any reason you do not hear from me, though I do try hard to keep up with all the emails. I really am a one woman band, and I have to do all the descriptions, photography, listing, emailing, posting, wrapping, oh, and buying the items, myself. Somewhere out there is also my husband, family, housework and social life (what social life!!)!
