Please view my other listings for more Vintage/Collectible Metalware. Please message me with any information or questions that you may have. We always recommend that if someone is hoping to use something for a specific event that they check before hand to make sure that there is sufficient time to get the item after the listing ends. I am often called away to work on a moments notice and shipping might be delayed at times by as much as TWO WEEKS.
Due to the nature of Antiques/Collectibles all items are sold as is/as described. All items in usable condition when applicable unless otherwise noted. Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use/wear. Even items that were never used may show signs of age or exposure to time/elements. As a collector I always list the obvious staining/spotting/discoloration and damage/defects to material to the best of my abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect displaying/using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning. Please be very specific in your questions regarding condition.
Florida residents must pay 7% sales tax or have current resale certificate.
All Items are shipped USPS Priority unless otherwise noted/requested. I gladly ship overseas but items worth over 100.00 will have to go Priority Insured (for tracking purposes) or First Class Mail International Registered. I automatically insure items valued over 100.00 (which means that you pay for it and the insurance amount will be added to the handling fee).
Feedback is left only after I receive yours. I cannot know if you have had a positive experience until then. If you have a problem with an item please contact me to resolve the issue before leaving feedback. I leave feedback in batches at intervals weeks or months at a time. Please be patient with receiving feedback.
Good luck!!
We gladly offer combined shipping if you are buying multiple items. Payment must be received within 10 days of listings closing.
