If you need more information or additional photos, please contact me before you bid. 

ALL SALES ARE FINAL; This item comes to you 'as-is'. I don't accept returns unless I screw up and the item is not as described. I don't sell enough that that has happened yet. 

I'm taking photos in my living space, so photos of the item may have various and sundry things that aren't part of the auction. 

I don't use stock photos, so the item in the photograph is the one in my possession. Pay careful attention to the photo; it is exactly what you are buying.

Used items will show some wear and tear, and aren't apt to be in "perfect" or "new" condition unless described as such. If I've said it's 'like new', then I cannot tell the difference between a sealed item just removed from the wrapper and the item I'm selling, but I also cannot call it 'New' without fudging the truth. That's true especially of CDs, and less so of books (since books don't come sealed). 

PAYMENT:  Payment by PayPal is due within 3 BUSINESS DAYS of the close of this auction. If payment isn't received within 3 business days of the close of auction, eBay will open an unpaid item dispute, which, if unresolved by the buyer, will be reflected on the buyer's eBay history. 

DOMESTIC (US) SHIPPING:  I ship within 3 business days of clearance of payment. Almost all of my items are media, and so I tend to send things Media Mail, since it's often cheaper. It's not noted for being fast, however. I try to offer expedited service of some kind as well.

FOREIGN SHIPPING:  By default, I use eBay's Global Shipping Program. That means that I send it to eBay's U.S.-based expediter, and they take it from there. Your shipping fee covers the shipping to eBay in the U.S. If you are wanting shipping to an address overseas from me, PLEASE note that import duties, taxes, and other charges are not included in the item price, or my shipping cost. I've had people ask me to set a 'Declared Value' of an item, and I cannot do that; the eBay software for shipping has all of that built in. Please check with eBay and/or your country's custom office to determine additional charges BEFORE you bid or buy. I also have had an item "liquidated" because of restrictions imposed by the destination country. This means that the buyer was refunded their payment by eBay, the seller (me) keeps the payment they made, but the item itself is neither sent nor returned. I had no idea that my item was going to be "liquidated" when I shipped it, but the buyer didn't get the item, and I didn't get the item back. If there is any possibility that the item might be restricted by the destination country, it is better that I ship directly to you, but that will involve at least $65 shipping (International Priority Mail - USPS price for this size package), and you will still be liable to pay import customs/duties/taxes in order to obtain the item. PLEASE factor that in before you bid.

I'm glad to COMBINE SHIPPING if you are buying more than one item from me.  Just let me know. It hasn't happened yet, but I see lots of people making this comment in their fine print, and I'm glad to be a good seller and refund a bit of your shipping charge if I'm paying less postage.

DAMAGED SHIPMENTS:  IF an item should arrive damaged or broken in shipping, save your BOX, LABEL, and ALL PACKING MATERIALS. Be prepared to email photos of the damaged item and all packaging to me, as this will help resolve the problem in a timely manner and ensure we are both satisfied.

Everything comes from my living space, which is NON-SMOKING. However, I do have a cat. This shouldn't be an issue for book and CDs, but if you're sensitive or allergic, I want you to have fair warning.

To Summarize:

Sales and shipping costs apply to only to United States buyers;

any international shipments will be via eBay's Global Shipping Program,

and buyer is responsible for any additional fees, taxes, or duties.
