    I am always happy to combine Shipping so please check out my other Listings. You never know what kind of interesting treasures I'm going to have for sale.
    About Quality Relics:
    I test and quality check items I sell to make sure buyers are happy with their purchase.
    I work hard to ensure the information in my listings is as accurate as possible.
    I know how important photos are to buyers so please review them, as I believe they are a crucial component to the condition of an item.
    I over pack items to ensure they arrive in the condition buyers expect.
    Items sold as new with tags or in original packaging must be returned in the same condition received to qualify for a full refund.
    I respect and follow e-bay's online business policies.
    I offer 30 day returns for buyers, unless an item is listed for "parts or repair" with no returns.
    I have very few returns, but in the event that an "Item not as described" return is necessary, I ask that buyers follow e-bay's policy and upload photos of the issue so the return can be expedited as efficiently as possible.
    I often upgrade shipping at my cost for buyers.  For larger items I occasionally change shipping from USPS 2-3 Days to FedEx 2-3 Days in an effort to keep business costs low.
    I will offer local pick-up for my items, so please message me if you are local.  Payments for local pick-up must be made through e-bay.  Depending on where we meet I reserve the right to charge a small fee for fuel & time.
    If you are unable to pay for an item, please message me and ask me to cancel your order.  This allows me to re-list the item for another buyer and prevents me from going through e-bay's unpaid item process.
    Please make sure your address is current with e-bay and your financial institution before purchase.
    For International shipping, I utilize e-bay's Global Shipping Program. This program simplifies the selling process for sellers.  I ship anywhere around the world through this program, but have no visibility or control over import fees, taxes, or duties.
    If you have any questions regarding an item I am selling, please message me.  I try to answer all inquiries from buyers.
