U S Hobbies "Pregnant Whale" Tank Car O Scale - 2-Rail This is one of the most impressive pieces of rolling stock modeled in O scale. It appears to be complete, and is nicely decorated for "B/A", But I have not been able to find an owner of the BAOX reporting marks. It is equipped with unsprung trucks with steel wheels, and rigid knuckle couplers. There is no original box, but will supply one of my sturdy replacements. Please carefully examine the photos and read all of the following before bidding. PAYMENT Unfortunately, I must collect 7% Sales Tax on items sold to buyers in the impoverished state of New Jersey. (Your contribution may help re-establish Interstate Rest Areas in the Garden State.) eBay only allows me to offer PayPal or cash-in-hand. If you do not use PayPal, feel free to contact me regarding alternative payment. You can also pick up the item in person and avoid all shipping costs. See below. Payment is expected within 7 days of end of auction. On the 5th day I will send you ONE reminder. On the 8th day I will file a non-payment complaint. On higher priced items, payment may be extended up to 30 days, so if you cannot pay immediately, please email me before bidding . Combined Shipment : Once an item has been paid, it will be shipped immediately! If you are currently high bidder on additional items, You may withhold payment until the additional items end. If you are not high bidder and you want me to hold an item for possible combined shipment, send me a message letting me know on which items you plan to bid. Note: I may decline to combine shipment of both heavy and fragile items in one package. SHIPPING Estimated Shipping Weight 3 lbs. Shipping estimates include full insurance. I consider it unethical (and just lowdown sneaky!) to use shipping and handling as a profit base! Buyer pays only the actual cost of shipping plus insurance. Note that USPS Priority Mail postage now includes insurance up to $50 value. All items over $50 total value are insured through ShipSaver. My preferred method of shipping is by by USPS Priority mail. (The Eagle provides me with free boxes) If actual shipping plus insurance is less than you paid, I will refund the difference. Buyers using other than PayPal may receive a shipping credit for future purchases. ECONOMICAL SHIPPING: If you request USPS Parcel Select shipping, I will ship by the most economical method available . This may be Priority Mail, First Class Package or FedEx Ground. OUTSIDE USA : I will ship anywhere that USPS allows, but the buyer is responsible for ALL shipping costs, customs fees, etc. I am flexible in how an item is described for customs purposes (Crafts, Scale Models, Toys, etc.). PLEASE DO NOT ASK me to understate item value, or declare item as a gift! FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL: This service is available for items weighing 4 lbs. or less, but does not provide tracking or delivery confirmation, and non-delivery claims require a 90-day wait. PICKUP/DELIVERY : I may, at my option, personally deliver an item at the same rate as Priority Mail. You may also arrange to pick up your item at my home in Somerville, New Jersey, and avoid all shipping charges , however this must be done by advance appointment . Please message me stating preferred date and time and include a phone number .
