I do offer combined shipping, see below. After 37 years of collecting, I am thinning the herd. Follow me for alarge variety of items from multiple manufacturers from prewar to modern. Manyhave been purchased to collect, others for the layout that clearly will nothold them all. There will be lots of cars and locomotives that are true mintcondition for those who like collecting as much as I do. PaymentI accept PayPal, credit cards through PayPal or use PayPal Credit forno interest for 6 months. See photos as part of the description. If it is visible in the photos, it is part of the description. A picture is worth a thousand words (and muchquicker than typing). Combine auctions to save on shipping(see below). I cannot guarantee that light bulb filamentswill survive the jarring and vibration of shipping. If I list them as working, they were truly tested before packing to insure wiring was intact and the bulbswere OK. I also do not guarantee that modern smoke units will survive shipping.I have come to learn that if any liquid leaks out onto the electronic boards, itwill short the resistor. As packages areturned upside down and on end during shipping, this can happen to the smokeunits. Postwar and Seuthe units do not seem to have the issue. Most willsurvive shipping. It isvirtually impossible to list every detail, paint nick or scratch of a usedtrain or accessory completely in the text description. And, I may misssomething that you see. I try to be accurate but always study the photos andask questions before you buy. I do not intentionally fail to mention somethingbut there are times when something I consider insignificant is notinsignificant to you. If it is shown in the photos, consider it part of thedescription. If youare buying used toys, you must accept that they are not new. If you wantsomething that is perfect, new, has a manufacturer’s warranty for operation –please buy from a retail dealer who can offer you these guarantees. I cannot., Localpickup available. Combine auctions tosave on shipping. Buy abunch, save a bunch.One way tobeat the costs is always look for sellers who will combine shipping & thenlook for other items you might like in my other items for sale. Just let me knowwith an email BEFORE you pay for a completed auction that you are watchinganother auction and what that item is. I will hold the items and combine into asingle shipment even if they are days or up to a week apart. I will adjust yourinvoice to show the new shipping amount once the later auction is complete.Items shipping in flat rate boxes may not be able to be combined to save youmoney and some items would not be smart to combine into a single box, such as aheavy transformer and a delicate accessory or two items with vastly differentdimensions.If you want the combinedshipping discount, you must wait until I send a corrected invoice. I will nolonger give partial refunds on shipping after you have paid as it has becometoo cumbersome to track the partial refunds to the satisfaction of the IRS.BID EARLY AND BIDOFTEN. BID WITH CONFIDENCE.Please bid only if theseterms are acceptable to you.Payment is via PayPal no later than 5days from the close of the auction.I am a member of the TCA, LOTS, andLCCA. You may rely on me to describe items as accurately as possible and abideby the rules of these toy train associations. I have been collecting trains for36 years.ReturnsI accept returns with buyer payingshipping to return the item and I will then return the full winning bid amountupon receipt provided the item is returned in the samecondition as originally sold within 30 days. If the item is sealed and you open it or you choose tooperate a mint / new item, that is a change in condition and I do not acceptreturns on new items that have been used. I DO NOT guarantee that a new itemwill work upon receipt. Newitems (even ones that are sealed) may have unforeseen deterioration due to ageand the length of time in storage (New & Sealed items could possibly haveunforeseen defects or other issues such as battery leakage or corrosion thatcould not be known until the item is opened).I have had some bad experiences withunscrupulous people buying items and switching out parts or returning identicalitems in lesser condition for refund. To avoid conflict, any item I list asmint or new will show no sign of wear on the wheels and will either be an itemI purchased new or purchased from a reputable collector. If they are new andnever run, they have never had their electronic or electrical components testedand I cannot warrant that they will work upon receipt. Should this be acondition you do not wish to accept, please do not bid. I will not acceptreturns on items sold in mint or new condition unless they are returned in thesame condition. I can never guarantee the operation of new items as they havenever been run or tested. Please bear this in mind as a new item that ispurchased is not guaranteed to work and trying to use it reduces the condition fromnew to used.Shipping to Alaska orHawaiiI have priced shipping for thecontinental 48 states. If you live in Hawaii or Alaska, you will need tocontact me in advance of bidding and agree to all charges for shipping that aregreater than shipping within CONUS.
