Hi my name is Brian and I have been buying and selling through ebay for many years and I am proud of my envious feedback from very satisfied customers. I am not a dealer and this is not a business.
I will always give good honest descriptions along side plenty of accurate photographs so that there are no surprises to the auction winners when receiving their item(s).


I am happy to send some items abroad but they must be fully insured (at the buyers expense).

The utmost care will be taken during packaging using quality materials.  I use card stiffeners, bubble wrap and cruciform boxes to ensure safe arrival.

The postage quoted above is NOT correct, it could be more or less,

PLEASE WAIT TO BE INVOICED

Postage will vary depending on final price and destination and I will invoice the buyer ASAP after the auction with an invoice including postage and packaging where appropriate. All items must be insured.


If for some reason you are not happy with the item, you can return it. And as long it arrives back with me in the condition I sent it I will give a  full refund. They are all used items so please read the descriptions with care and take a very good look at the pictures.
