READ BEFORE BIDDING - FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN BIDDER BEING BLOCKED! 1. Ask questions about anything BEFORE BIDDING. Don’t consider me the expert. I do my best to research and investigate, but I can and do make mistakes. I'm not a magic store, I'm just selling my collection of apparatus accumulated over the years to make space. 2. Indicate if you’d like insurance on the shipment - it will be extra. If you don't choose insurance and the carrier damages your item, there's nothing I can do to remedy the situation. If you choose to have eBay "mediate", you will be blocked from future auctions. This is necessary due to a chosen few abusing the eBay Return System.3. No returns on magic items, as much of the value is in the secret! Items leave here in the condition you see in the pictures, and I pack well. Refer to Rule 2 if you choose to challenge.4. If you’re bidding on more than one item and would like combined shipping, please send me a note with a heads-up so I can be watching for it.5. You agree to pay in full within 2 days. Your order may be cancelled and the item re-listed if payment isn’t received in 3 days. 6. Any bidder with feedback less than 10 must contact me prior to bidding to be considered. Failure to do so may result in your bid being cancelled.7. Bids NOT ACCEPTED from bidders with “PRIVATE” feedback, unless previously verified by seller.8. Let's try to be adults in these dealings. The few more-ons I've had to deal with have really made working with the eBay system much less pleasurable than it has been in the past.
