I'm happy to provide more details on condition. However, please read my FAQ on grading before asking your question. Buyer pays actual USPS shipping costs (no handling or materials fees). If you do not live in the United States: Please read my FAQ for overseas buyers before you bid. All buyers: Please read my sales terms that follow the description. Scroll down to see more pictures. Sales Terms Shipping Options: All packages are shipped via the United States Postal Service. When feasible, I offer a choice of priority or economy (which usually is media rate or first class). Bound printed material containing advertising cannot be shipped media rate. I can't accommodate local pick-ups unless I specifically offer the option in the listing. If you live close to me, please be prepared to complete the transaction through the mail. Publications Containing Advertising: Magazines, yearbooks, travel guides, directories, catalogs, and other bound printed material containing advertising cannot be shipped media rate and must be shipped priority or parcel post. See the USPS regulations and eBay's Shipping Services page . The USPS regulation is very clear and specific about this and does not make exceptions. Please don't e-mail me telling me that old magazines are exempt because the ads are outdated or yearbooks are exempt because they're not commercial enterprises unless you can cite for me a specific USPS regulation or circular that states so. Shipping Fees: The buyer pays actual shipping costs; I do not charge fees for packing materials or handling unless otherwise noted in the description. For U.S. shipments, I charge the estimated actual postage. That is, I estimate how much the post office is going to charge me, and that's the amount I charge the buyer. All USPS services, including delivery confirmation and certificates of mailing, are optional. Please note that there's no such thing as tracking for USPS packages except for those that are mailed registered. Buyers who require a service should e-mail me and I will issue a revised invoice. How I Pack: Most books are packed in boxes with packing peanuts or bubble wrap. Thin volumes and ephemera are mailed in envelopes with stiffeners. Records are mailed in industry-standard cardboard mailers. Postcards are mailed in plastic sleeves and with cardboard protectors. All items are packed to withstand normal abuse from the post office. How You Should Pay: I accept PayPal only. I don't accept any other forms of payment. I require payment within 4 days unless you've made previous arrangements because of a special circumstance (e.g., you're on a business trip). If I haven't received payment, I automatically file an unpaid item report, followed by a request for a final value fee credit. Refunds: I will issue a full refund for items returned in 30 days. Items must be in the same condition in which they were received. I do not issue partial refunds. Grading: Feedback: I will leave feedback on request if you e-mail me after you get your package. Closing Auctions Early: I won't respond to requests to close an auction early to fac... read more
