  My eBay listings are geared towards watch collecting enthusiasts and vintage collectors. I am a collector who uses eBay to advance my wristwatch and vintage collecting hobby. I find these items at antique stores, estate sales, flea markets, auction houses, or online auctions. My goal is to provide other collectors the opportunity to purchase items at an affordable price. Simply put, I want the pieces that I don't collect to go to a good home. I do my absolute best to describe all of the pieces accurately to the best of my knowledge, but most of these items' history is a mystery to me. But I will provide good photos and answer any questions that I can! Buyer should determine overall quality by the photos. This is not a business for me. I do this to sustain my hobby. I have a passion for wristwatch and vintage collecting, and I want to provide a service to others that share the same interests. I want others to scoop up the watches and vintage items that I do not want in order to add to their collection. I will do all that I can to make you as happy in your hobby as I am in mine.  
Affiliations: I am not affiliated with any watch company. I am not affiliated with any other re-sale houses or auction houses. I am just one guy trying to advance my hobby and bring others in on the fun.
Service: The watches I sell are NOT serviced (unless otherwise stated in the description). As a buyer, you agree to have the watch serviced at your own expense. Not only will this make you a happier watch collector, but it will prolong the life of the timepiece.The same goes for vintage clothing.  It is vintage, so there may be stains, loose threads, broken buttons, or other imperfections.  Please take your vintage clothing immediately to a dry cleaner for spot cleaning and mending if necessary.  This fairly inexpensive process will make you a happier collector of vintage garments!  All dry-cleaning, mending, etc. is at your own expense.
Warranties/Guarantees: Because I am not a watchmaker, I cannot (and will not) offer a warranty on watches; I hope you understand. I cannot (and will not) guarantee watches to continue functioning after they leave my possession. I do not guarantee water resistancy or any other type of manufacturer's claims on timepieces. Do not shower, wash dishes, or completely submerge your timepiece in water (especially vintage pieces; even diver watches!). In fact, keep your watches as far away from water as possible. ANY misuse of ANY timepiece by a buyer will not be covered by me. Be careful. (You laugh, but I have had buyers ask me to refund after dishwashing and oil-changing.)Vintage items are old and therefore not under warranty, even NOS items.  Please understand that I cannot (and will not) guarantee items that are decades old.
Refunds and Returns: I offer a 100% refund on any timepieces or items that are grossly misrepresented or "misdescribed." I guarantee authenticity. I have not and will not sell replica pieces or reproduced vintage items!
I do not offer refunds for buyer's remorse.  Please be sure that you want the item that you purchase.
Return shipping is the buyer's responsibility.  Original shipping and auction price will be refunded.
Please read the auction carefully and ask any questions before purchasing an item. Any watches or items offered for parts or repair are non-refundable.  Please understand that I have been burned in the past by unscrupulous people that take parts for what they need and then try to return the item.  I need to protect myself from this practice.
I do not deal in partial refunds; all or nothing.
If returning, the watch or item must be received in the identical condition that it was offered.
Shipping: I ship through the United States Postal Service. I use Domestic Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation or First Class mail, and insurance. All shipping in the USA is FREE.  International shipping is through eBay's international shipping service.
I try my best to ship within 3 days of receipt of payment unless there are holidays when the post office is closed. I will not be responsible for shipping delays caused by the USPS.
Payment: I accept PayPal for all transactions. International bidders must use PayPal. I do not deal in wire transfers. Payment must be received within 3 days of the end of the auction. I reserve the right to extend this deadline only if contact is made with me before the auction ends.
Offers for Immediate Sale: I do not accept offers. ALL OF MY ITEMS WILL GO UNTIL THE VERY END (unless an item breaks).
