PLEASE READ:
I have been buying + selling American historical autographs & documents for over 35 years and a former member of both the “Manuscript Society” and the UACC. We ship everything INSURED (thru the USPS) with a value over . This helps us know that the item you took the time to purchase arrived safely. Packages are shipped out within 1 – 3 business days, but typically the next day. Please understand, we do not make any money on shipping costs, but rather run a deficit over the course of a year. Most people don’t realize that ebay deducts a FEE of about 13.5% from BOTH the winning bid AND from my stated shipping charges (leaving around 87% of that shipping charge to be used for actual postage + insurance). Everything we sell is packaged with the utmost care. Please read my ebay feedback over the last 20 years. The comments are often – the best packaging I have ever seen or “bullet proof” packaging. We do NOT offer returns for one simple reason. In the past, I have had some buyers purchase items from me and then proceed to shop them around during the return period to try and make a fast profit, without any financial risk. After they were unsuccessful, they returned the item to me. This information, however, made it back to me from different people I know who were directly offered my item immediately after I had sold it and before it was returned to me. Bid with confidence! You will receive the exact item pictured and in the same condition as described in my listing.
