Antique Early 1900 Small 8" Emerson Brass Electric Fan DESCRIPTION: This auction is for a very early 1900s Emerson electric fan. It has both a brass cage and blades. There is a break in the cage which I have shown in the photos. I would think an easy fix. It is dirty and just as found. The only think I have done is cleaned off the data plate so I could see the information. The plate says it is a 1500 Model, etc., etc., etc. I have no idea if it runs. Lastly, this is not something that I know anything about. I am told that it is quite scarce. Please look at the photos. If you have questions, ask them. I will answer them all. I am offering this fan for your collection or restoration with NO RESERVE. However, I will not allow it to be sniped at closing for nothing. So if you are a serious collector, I strongly recommend you step up and bid early or I will remove the item and re-list it with a reserve. FEEDBACK MESSAGE: Please note that eBay has introduced a new detailed feedback rating system that is based on 1 to 5 stars in four categories. However, I am learning that most eBay buyers are not aware that a 4 star rating, which is usually considered a good or very good rating out of a total of 5 to most people, is considered a failing raiting by eBay. Sellers that receive an average of less than 4.6 are being charged more to list and sell on eBay. Seller ratings are based on a 30 day average, so one or two 4's a month can really impact on a sellers average. In addition, these sellers items are also appearing lower in SEARCH RESULTS thus decreasing the likelihood of a sale and making it more difficult for you the buyer to find what you are looking for to buy. I am posting this information in order that you, the buyer, are both aware and careful when you complete the survey as your rating will have a huge impact on the seller's ability to continue to sell on eBay. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: I ship outside of the United States by Registered Mail. If you want First Class International Air Mail which cost less, you must authorize First Class by sending me a message through eBay and accept responsibility for loss or theft. It is the only way I can protect myself from buyers claiming they did not receive the package. DO NOT bid on my items if you are not willing to accept these terms. PAYMENT: If you require special payment considerations, please contact me prior to bidding. SHIPPING: I DO NOT try to make money on shipping. There are no handling fees. Do keep in mind when completing the SHIPPING COST FEEDBACK RATING that mailing suppies: i.e., bubble wrap, plastic protectors, envelopes, padded envelopes, tape, etc., are not free to me. Also, Please remember that when you pay with PayPal , they charge me a fee which is based on both the selling price plus postage fees. All items are shipped either with delivery confirmation or Insurance. All items are shipped by the US Postal Service unless we agree to something else, or an item requires to be shipped by ground transportation, then I use your preference. I do not ship everything by Priority Mail. If weight or size dictates Priority Mail then so be it. Otherwise, I will ship First Class Mail which is usually only a day later. GRADING and CONDITION: I only list original antiques and collectibles. I believe you will find that my descriptions are accurate -- without embellishment. My condition rating system is: poor, fair, good, excellent or mint. Sometimes the condition has a modifier such as near, plus or very. I seldom list an item with a condition below fair plus. When condition is debatable, I try to understate the rating so that the buyer will always be satisfied. It is important to point out that I do not polish, buff, or repair any item I sell. Items are sold just as I collected them. It is my policy to leave all decisions to restore or repair an item to the new owner. Should I decide to sell an item that I have restored, I will tell you so in the description. RETURN POLICY: If you are unhappy w... read more
