1) ENDING DATE: All auctions end precisely at the stroke of 12 midnight on Sunday night, February 28th, 2010 eastern US time zone (11:00 pm central time, 10:00 pm mountain time, 9:00 pm western time, 5:00 am UK time, 6:00 am western European time). I will check my e-mail one last time for any bids as the official clock strikes 12:00 am and it becomes March 1st, 2010. If you have any issues at all with your internet service provider I would highly recommend not waiting till the last minute to try and out-bid other people. I've seen some pretty disappointed bidders in the past lose out on items they were fighting for due to server glitches.
2) BIDDING PROCEDURE: You will find that most of the items start out at $0. This means that no bids have been placed on the item yet and most all of the items have no minimum bid required. In the past I would have bidders e-mail me their exact bid amounts and I would update the bids on a daily basis as e-mails came in. Due to the volume I am dealing with this time I am unable to run the auction like that. So the bidding will be more in line with how ebay auctions are run. Send me your maximum bid and you will only be notified if you get out bid. Bidding will start out at $1 (this may vary on special items) and will be bumped up according to the bidding increments (see rule #3) as bids are placed below your maximum bid.
3) BIDDING INCREMENTS: All bids are to be placed in whole US dollar amounts (no cents). Overseas bidders will be responsible to convert their own exchange rates. The bidding increments are as follows...

4) PAYMENT: Paypal is the preferred method of payment. You can pay with your bank account or a credit card this way. If you must send a check or money order it must be made out to "CASH" or left blank (as I will not be able to make deposit's this time of year due to unemployment procedures). WARNING: sending a payment like this is the same as sending cash. It is very dangerous! I would highly recommend using paypal or if that is simply not an option to get some sort of tracking for the cash payment. If you have not dealt with me in the past, you can view my ebay record to help assure you of my integrity. I have been selling on ebay for 10 years and maintain a 100% positive feedback rating.
5) SHIPPING: I will ship items to anywhere in the world but please be aware that items traveling overseas may take a long time to get there. I've had items take over a month to get to Italy in the past. Once the package leaves the US I will no longer be able to track it. Shipping rates will depend on how many items you win and what they weigh, so I will not be able to get exact shipping quotes on anything until the auction has ended and the items are packed up. I will do my best to get the cheapest shipping option possible.
