Please look at the picture, as it shows the item that you are
bidding on.

About my pictures: I use an indirect light
source that is reflected off of a pane of glass to provide a variation of axial
lighting. The camera is above this pane of glass, and uses a long exposure
count to absorb the details of the coin. I try to ensure that the pictures are
as accurate to the coin as possible, but realize that copper coins are
difficult to photograph, in that if they are worn, either the color will be
correct or the details will. I prefer to focus on the details of the coins, so
in my pictures, copper coins are generally darker in hand than they appear in
the pictures. The only post-photography editing that takes place is cropping
and rotation to make sure that the orientation is correct and that the
backgrounds do not detract from the coins.

Please note that I am not an expert on coins, nor am I a dealer. I am
simply a collector trying to get rid of some stuff that I have accumulated.

While you’re here, please take a look around. I have a number of
items of things (some of them quite interesting and obscure) that I am looking
at getting rid of and will hopefully be listing. Thanks for stopping by!

Payment:

I expect payment within three days. If you need more time, please
contact me and we can work something out. If I do not hear from you within five
days, I will assume that you do not want the item and will file a non-paying
bidder claim with eBay. I have had problems with NPBs in the past and
simply don’t want to deal with it anymore.

Shipping:

I ship items mainly within the US but am willing to ship abroad.
I will combine on shipping if you win more than one of my auctions. If you win
more than one, please wait for an invoice before paying. This saves me
time and effort in trying to refund the shipping cost through individual items.

My international rate is determined by eBay’s international
calculator. I use this because I have found a great difference between the cost
to ship between countries and between post offices. If the rate that is charged
exceeds the cost to ship the item, I will send out a partial refund. As mentioned before, I will combine on shipping.

Please message me before you bid to ask if I will ship to your
country. Certain countries have certain restrictions and
prohibitions. As of right now, I can say that I cannot ship to Russia, China, certain countries in Eastern Europe, or the Middle East. You are responsible for knowing your country’s laws and duties on
incoming items and are also responsible for any taxes or fees that the item may
incur en route. I cannot be held liable for items that are seized by
customs. 

If you are from a country other than the US and still want to bid,
please understand that it will take longer to ship the items than normal. If
this is acceptable to you, please go ahead and bid. 

Returns:

As a general rule, I do not accept returns. I make sure that the
pictures I take are accurate to the item before putting them up, and that the
descriptions reflect any inaccuracies. If, however, there are extenuating
circumstances and you need to return the item, contact me and we can work
something out.
