PLEASE READ MY TERMS CAREFULLY :

- especially the section on cleared payments and despatch:

International bidders welcome, but please note, postage rates will be higher: please contact me before you bid.

Payment by postal order (preferred) ; Cheque in sterling drawn on UK bank (please allow EIGHT working days for clearing); International Bank drafts -- GB POUNDS only; IBAN/BIC, GB POUNDS ONLY; Canada Post Postal orders, GB POUNDS ONLY.

eBay rules now require sellers to accept PayPal. I am very reluctant to accept PayPal from UK buyers - not because I have any worries about "buyer protection" - I describe items very accurately, and list any faults - but because it is simply too expensive at the low prices I offer my stuff, and it is too risky if the payment is funded by credit card ; and Postal Orders and cheques are a perfectly good payment method.

So, if you really must pay by PayPal, you must wait for the invoice and your payment MUST be funded from a BANK ACCOUNT/PayPal cash balance - NOT from a credit card. Credit card funded payments will be rejected.

Any items paid for by PayPal to be sent by Royal Mail parcels MUST be insured so I am protected in the event of a dispute.

All items sent by Royal Mail services.
If in the unfortunate event that an item goes astray in the post, I will assist buyers in making enquiries/claims; but I cannot accept liability for any item once it is entrusted to the Post Office.
Where postal insurance is offered, particularly on high value items,it is recommended that buyers take this option.

I despatch only on Thursdays.

I try to provide a full and honest description of items, including measurements where appropriate, so you can buy with confidence. If you have any questions before bidding please feel free to email me. I regret that, except in the case of GENUINE faults, I cannot accept returns and ALL SALES ARE FINAL.

I reserve the right to cancel all bids in the event of computer/server failure in the last three hours of an auction.
I accept no liability for any errors on the part of eBay.
By placing a bid, you accept these terms.
