You
can feel good about this purchase because this listing is offered by
Street Dog Love, Inc. -- a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
If you are new to our listings, please read the important information
below.
Because Street Dog Love is a
volunteer-based organization, we ship once or twice a week -- always on
Mondays and sometimes on Fridays too. Please factor this into your
purchasing decision. If you are in a rush, it would probably be best if
you purchase from another seller.
To help
the planet and to keep our selling costs low, we reuse some packaging
materials, including mailers. We also don't include any invoice or
packing slip in your package. If this is a concern for you, it would
probably be best if you purchase from another seller.
Our
prices are low and firm and almost always include free shipping (a few
exceptions apply to large items). We are volunteer based and therefore
cannot respond to messages about reducing the price of an item.
We
do not accept returns unless an item arrives damaged or not as
described or we messed up in some way, in which case we will make it
right for you -- so PLEASE contact us if there is a problem before
leaving any feedback. Once a new item is used, opened and/or tested we
have a firm "no returns" policy. If you want to be able to try a
product out and then return it for any reason -- such as you simply
don't like it or the color isn't what you expected -- you should
definitely purchase from a seller with that type of return policy (not
us!).
100% of the proceeds from the sale of
this listing will be used to support Street Dog Love's mission of
helping street dogs (cats, too!) in Mexico and eventually the southern
United States by funding sterilization clinics, veterinary care, food,
transport -- and educating local populations about the humane treatment
of dogs and cats. We are just getting started so please be patient as
we grow and fulfill our mission. If you think we have earned it, taking
a moment to give us positive feedback is very valuable to us and so
greatly appreciated! We are part of the Pay pal Giving Fund. Please
contact us if you would like information about how to make an additional
donation.
We cannot offer any advice regarding
whether this purchase is tax deductible but -- according to eBay's
article "Buying and Selling on eBay to benefit nonprofit organizations"
-- generally you can’t claim a tax deduction for eBay for Charity items
that you buy. If you’re unsure about your tax rights and obligations,
you should consult a tax professional about your specific circumstances.
Thanks so much for your support!
