What you see in the photos is what will be shipped to you – no stock photos used.
Please feel free to ask as many questions as you like ....or use the "contact seller" link
to express any concerns you might have.
I will try to get items to the post office and on their way to you within 1-2 days, depending upon whether it is a weekday or weekend sale.
However, these days we all know that mail delivery times are totally unpredictable.
Hopefully it will help that most items are shipped with tracking and/or delivery confirmation –  ”most”
because it would be silly to pay .00 for tracking and/or confirmation on a item
.  I’m also happy to combine shipping for multiple items – just need an email request to make it happen. If used, delivery confirmation confirms delivery to prevent fraudulent charge-backs of claimed unreceived items. So if you are checking a delivery confirmation number, the first time you see any data about your package might be when it first gets to your post office (not as informative as tracking).
In general, shipping will be as low as I can get it. If I end up being able to ship for less than predicted, I'm happy to reimburse the difference. The two most popular shipping choices will be:
USPS Economy Mail
or
USPS Media Mail. If shipping a non-sport trade card(s) – the cost depends upon weight.
Ebay rules state:  One single sealed pack or up to 15 standard raw cards per package weighing
:
1oz =
{{detail_product_description}}.51
2oz =
{{detail_product_description}}.71
3oz =
{{detail_product_description}}.91
In a few rare cases (buyer notified), the shipping cost might include a modicum of insurance.
LOCAL PICK-UP IS FREE.
Returns:  almost all items will be USED (not new) and therefore sold AS-IS.  In general, I tend to be detail-conscious, so the specifics of condition should be reflected in item photos and descriptions. However, if it turns out that I do miss a defect in an item, accidentally omit something or make an error in the description, please let me know and I will fix it. Since ebay limits the number of photo postings per item, I will sometimes take a variety of extra photos for purposes of discussion in case the need should arise.
To keep prices down, no returns on new items either.
Payment: payment should be made promptly (within a day or so) to avoid having an item “waiting in the wings” before it can be boxed up for shipment.  A lengthy “hanging around” time could cause an unboxed item to end up getting mailed to the wrong person  :<(
Feedback:  I am new at this, so if you have a positive experience, I would
appreciate your feedback
.
Thanks
