Notes:
The Fine Print:
Descriptions: I try to provide accurate (and AI free)descriptions but I'm not an expert -- my assessments can be off and internetsources may not be accurate. I try to list defects that are hard to see, but Imight miss something, so do zoom in on the scans.
Photos/Scans: These are an important part of thedescription. You need to examine them closely. If you see something you don'tlike, there's a good chance it's still going to be there when you open thepackage. Still, it might be just a shadow, the lighting, or an artifact of abackground removal. Also, there might be something missing that you need tosee. So, if it's a deal breaker, please ask me about it before buying (or notbuying). Note: Unrelated items added for scale or ambiance, e.g., acoin, are not included in the sale. The sale includes only the item(s) detailedin the written description.
Definitions:
“Antique” means at least 100years old, while “Vintage” means at least 50 years old. Often, this is just myestimate and should not be taken as an expert assessment.
“Crazing” is a pattern of finecracks that commonly develops in the glazing of ceramic items with age andthermal stress.
Best Offer: Offers are welcome, but shipping isn'tnegotiable because eBay charges the listed amount anyway.
Delivery Time: Any time given in this listing is an eBayestimate – not mine and it is not guaranteed. The USPS does not guaranteedelivery times for the First Class, Ground Advantage, Priority, and Media Mailshipments that I use. Delays on their part are always a possibility, especiallyduring the holidays. This is rarely an issue but be aware.
Sales Taxes: eBay will collect and remit your localsales tax(s) on your purchase in accordance with applicable state law. Mybeing in tax free New Hampshire won't save you.
Returns: items may bereturned for a refund within 30 days. You may have to pay for the returnshipping.
Feedback: I leave feedback. Yours is appreciated.
Questions: Asking about the item is easier thanreturning it. If you notice an error, please let me know. Corrections arewelcome.
