NEW FOR 2019!! STREAMLINED COMBINED SHIPPING DISCOUNTS
FALL 2019 UPDATE: DUE TO THE LIMITED FUNCTIONALITY OF EBAY'S SYSTEM, IT'S BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT BUYERS CAN'T SEND ME COMBINED INVOICE REQUESTS BEFORE PAYMENT, WHEN MY ITEMS ARE ON DISCOUNTED PRICE SALE.

SHIPPING TERMS AND METHODS
NOTE: PLEASE ALLOW THREE TO FIVE BUSINESS DAYS ***AFTER MAKING PAYMENT*** (NOT INCLUDING POSTAL HOLIDAYS AND WEEKENDS) FOR  ANYTHING YOU'VE BOUGHT FROM ME TO SHIP. I WILL BE WORKING MANY 60-HOUR WEEKS WHERE MY SHIFTS BEGIN BEFORE THE POST OFFICE OPENS AND END AFTER IT CLOSES. I SHIP TWICE A WEEK NORMALLY, BUT SOMETIMES MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SHIP BETWEEN WEDNESDAY ANY MONDAY, AND SOMETIMES MIGHT ONLY BE ABLE TO SHIP ONCE DURING A POSTAL HOLIDAY WEEK. I WILL NOTIFY ALL CUSTOMERS BY MESSAGE  IF AND WHEN THERE ARE ANY EXTENUATING DELAYS BEYOND WHAT IS CONSIDERED "NORMAL," INCLUDING VACATIONS OR JAUNTS OUT OF TOWN.
SHIPPING SERVICES:
I utilize USPS (United States Postal Service) PRIORITY services only.
MY PACKING PRACTICES:
Cars in sturdy model boxes (Athearn, Roundhouse, Accurail, etc) will have voids filled inside the boxes and then will be triple wrapped in bubble-wrap before going in in a padded tyvek mailer. Single cars not in model boxes will oft go into a generic brown box with plenty of padding.. I pack items with the utmost of care, using boxes without defects, styrofoam peanuts, air bags, plastic sheeting, cardboard spacers, bubble wrap - I have it all, and can do it all. I also do not leave any voids anywhere in packaging where items could rattle around or break. Henceforth, I cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by the shipment process itself (like excess height drops, being crushed by other items in a truck, or run over by equipment). If you require insurance for the value of your package, I can quote it into the invoice based on USPS rates, and you will be charged that amount, where and when applicable.
IF ANY OF MY LISTINGS APPEAR TO HAVE ANY SHIPPING CHARGE OR WEIGHT ERRORS, LET ME KNOW SO I CAN HELP YOU AND/OR CORRECT THE LISTING. THANKS!
ERRORS & ITEMS OR LISTINGS WITH DEFECTS / RETURNS DUE TO DISSATISFACTION
For any items with any significant defects not caught and noted by me before you buy, I will happily give partial (and sometimes FULL) refunds when and where applicable. I sell a couple thousand model train items per year and cannot humanly catch all problems that arise with items. Even "new" items or kits can have defects that cannot reasonably be caught or noticed. If any situation has left you scratching your head, let me know immediately and I can help you. These problems can be as simple as never-opened kits with missing parts.
Reasonable defects I can refund you for (without starting a return process):
- Anything I have claimed to be NEW or never used, but turns out has signs of use or tampering I did not see or notice
- Something broken or otherwise defective I did not see, catch, note, or make note of, or photograph.
- Kits with missing parts or otherwise incomplete items that I have claimed to be complete
- Anything that is designed to perform a function on its own
that I have claimed to have tested or have otherwise PERSONALLY deemed as functional
, but doesn't work when you get it.
I comply with eBay's "recommended" return policies for sellers. If there as an absolute need to return an item, the 30-day policy is in effect. Item MUST be in the exact same condition in which you received it. Unless there is a major issue beyond buyer's remorse, I will normally NOT refund return-shipping costs - only what you paid initially.
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION / FEEDBACK
I pledge to anyone who purchases anything from me, that I will strive to make your experience satisfactory, no matter what. But it is imperative that YOU to CONTACT ME immediately to resolve any issues you may have. Before any situation arises where you have to file any kind of eBay case, I can offer multiple solutions for you. Please be kind and honest - suspicious, malicious or fraudulent activity can and will be reported to eBay.
Last, I humbly ask that you leave POSITIVE feedback for our transaction. Please do not leave negative feedback unless ALL above options and bases have been covered or exhausted. This is especially important, because once you leave (any) feedback for any transaction, neither eBay nor I would legally be able to help you resolve an issue. Thank you for shopping with me and have a great year!!
