The base it goes with and other epergne's I have are chipped, this is the only one without defects from the set, so I figure someone may need it to replace a broken piece if they have one. Please look at pictures before bidding. Last photo is taken under a black light. 

Shipping based on size, weight, and destination of box or envelope. Post office prices have increased dramatically, especially for larger or heavy boxes. You only pay the actual shipping charges to ship your item from my zip code to yours. I do not charge extra for packing supplies, trips to post office, etc..  I do not try to make extra money by overcharging on shipping.  Please look at all shipping options available before bidding. I must wait a week or two to get reimbursed by the post office for cancelled shipping labels, so please make sure you want the item and are aware of the shipping costs.

Payment expected within 2 days of auction’s end or acceptance of an offer unless other arrangements are made ahead of time. US bidders only. I do not do international shipping.

I usually ship out within 3 business days of auctions end and often make multiple trips to the post office during the week. I do my best to ship out as quickly as possible barring unforeseen circumstances. I cannot be responsible for the post office taking longer than expected to deliver an item.  

I do this on the side besides having a full-time job. If you have a concern or question, I may not get back to you right away, I check my e-mail every night after work. ( eastern standard time)  Please look at my positive feedback. I do my best to describe items, but if you want more information, please e-mail me thru e-bay.
