Conditions of Sale

• Friendly people are preferred bidders - I'm a nice guy, and can sort out any problem on 0402 86 49 86 
• Winning bidder must make payment as soon as possible, and advise me that this has been done. 
• If payment has not been made within 14 days and buyer has not contacted me, Ebay will become involved and negative feedback may be left. (This is fairly reasonable) 
• While all care is taken, I will not be held liable for any damage in transit and as such I offer the option of the winning bidder paying for insurance with Australia Post or Freight Company involved. 
• I have had nothing damaged in last 12 months of mail order business - but it has happened to my parcels about 4 times in the 15 years in business so less than 1%. 
• If any problems arise, the buyer will contact me and I can fix any problems. Buyer will give us the chance to respond BEFORE leaving negative feedback.

Shipping and Handling

3. When in doubt - don't bid! ·

+++ When I have specified a 7day returns policy above (some items I cannot do this such as consumables),

• I have a great 7 Day money back return policy so you can look at the item and check its what you want. ·
• If you find the item not to your liking, you can return the item for a refund of the item amount, excluding the charged postage BY NOTIFYING ME WITHIN 7 days and returning the item as quickly as possible - within 14 days of receiving the item ·
• Item must be returned in same condition as it was sent so it can be resold.
• Specifically it must not be in a "used" condition if it was sold new.
• Excludes postage costs to return item. ·

• If the same EBay member returns several items over a period of time, I may refuse to honour returns if buyer does not seem to have any intention to buy. ·
• If it is not mentioned in the item description above, this 7 day return policy does not apply in this item. (Usually does) ·

I will refund or exchange or repair if

• Something you bought is faulty or defective; or
• Does not do the job I led you to believe it would do; or
• Does not match the item you bid on; or
• Is not as described in the auction. ·

I will not give you a refund if

• You have damaged the goods you bought and I cannot resell it under the 30 day offer
• The 7 days has expired and you have not contacted us · This is because we would have restocked the item after this time.
