This auction is for an art deco radio, the knobs are Bakelite, the case did not test as Bakelite. We are not testing the radio as the cord has been spliced and we are not sure if it is safe. Selling as is as found for parts or restoration. Measures 9 3/4" wide, 6 1/2" high and 6" deep. Some wear and scuffing, back loose and held on with tape, no cracks in the case but there are some small edge chips. Please take the time to read all information that applies to you below. We are selling consigned items, we are not experts or collectors. Bidding indicates you are OK with our system as explainedbelow. If you have any questions or need more photos, let us know (allowing time for answers please). Ph otos are part of the description and show all that is included. The items we sell are almost always used and sold as is as found no returns unless otherwise noted. However if we make an error in our listing and an item is not as described because we miss obvious damage or if we state an item works and it does not then of course we will make it good. But no returns for any reason after 3 days from delivery , that gives you more than enough time to open and inspect your item(s). Expect normal age appropriate signs of wear and use, sometimes odors, dust, etc, these items are often attic and basement estate finds. SHIPPING INFO : If you do not want all of the items in an auction let us know and we can ship only what you want. Specific packing requests need to be made before we pack the morning after the auction. Before we send an invoice we like to check Fed Ex and USPS regional rates to see if we can save some money that way - not all available choices show in the shipping calculator Ebay provides. Until an item is packed and weighed after the auction we are only estimating shipping costs. A reasonable fee is added to the exact shipping for all auctions, this fee is based on and goes towards the insurance (all items are insured thru a third party insurer), and handling . If a package is lost or arrives damaged our insurance requires the buyer to sign a claim statement. Do not throw out the original box or packing materials. It not likely it will need to be inspected but just in case! We only ship to the address that is on the PayPal payment, and it needs to be confirmed or verified. Some packages are not scanned along the way, that does not mean your package was not shipped. Items shipped media mail that are rejected by the post office on the buyers end may require the buyer to pay additional shipping for parcel post. Since you would have had to pay that anyway if we had used parcel post, the additional expense is not our responsibility and will not be reimbursed. Use of media mail for magazines or catalogs is at your own risk so parcel post is recommended for those items. COMBINED SHIPPING : We combine shipping whenever possible. Sometimes the savings is substantial, sometimes it is not much at all because the box got bigger and that affected the rates. Some items can’t be combined safely, or the box size is gets too big and/or too heavy. On occasion Ebay invoices have not been correct for combined shipping, if it shows free that is most definitely not the case, when we offer free shipping it will show that in the actual auction. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS ONLY: Sold price can change the shipping method we will use. Any item that totals over $499.00 in shipping and sold price has to be sent Express International , and if between 249.00 - 499.00 we require priority international mail. We have to protect our consignors merchandise. The auction sold price is the only amount that will appear on the customs form as the item value, it has to match the insured amount, we will not change the value on the customs form for any reason . Any import duties or taxes you may have to pay on your end are your responsibility and not additional shipping, do not ask us to put a lower price on the customs form. First Class International has little or no tracking ability so if you want more ... read more
