THE CAMERA IS COMPLETE, CLEAN ALL ORIGINAL AND IN GREAT WORKING SHAPE AT THE TIME OF THIS LISTING. IT'S NOT BEAT UP, WORN LOOKING, ROTTED, BENT UP, CHOPPED UP, MODIFIED OR REPAIRED. I USED MY OWN TEST BATTERY & THE ELECTRONICS WORKED. THE SHUTTER FIRED. THE LIGHT METER WORKED. I CAN SEE THE RANGEFINDER GHOST IMAGE MOVE WHEN THE LENS IS FOCUSED.

THE LENS GLASS IS NOT FUNGUS ROTTED OR SCRATCHED UP. THE FOCUS RING TURNS SMOOTH. 

THE BOX IS COMPLETE WITH THE FOAM LINER & ALL END FLAPS ARE INTACT & NOT TAPED UP.  

I HAVE NOT POLISHED UP, SERVICED OR TAMPERED WITH ANYTHING. YOU'RE SEEING THIS CAMERA JUST AS IT WAS BROUGHT TO ME FROM AN ESTATE. IT'S BEING OFFERED WITH NO WARRANTIES AS VINTAGE PRE-OWNED MINOLTA 35MM CAMERA EQUIPMENT DIRECTLY FROM AN ESTATE. 

                                                                                                                            


                                                  ** NEVER A RESERVE ** 


I AM A PROFESSIONAL ESTATE PERSONAL PROPERTY LIQUIDATION LLC. 
ALL ITEMS I OFFER ARE FROM NUMEROUS EAST COAST ESTATES. THEY ARE USUALLY OBTAINED THROUGH CONSIGNMENT OR ESTATE LIQUIDATION PURCHASE. (I AM NOT A "YARD SALER", A " FLEAMARKETER" OR A "PICKER".)  YOU ARE SEEING THE ITEMS EXACTLY HOW THEY ARE BROUGHT TO ME FROM THE ESTATES. I DO NOT TAMPER WITH ITEMS, "CLEAN THEM UP" OR ALTER ANYTHING. I WANT BIDDERS TO GET THE ITEMS AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO HOW I SEE THEM FRESH OUT OF THE ESTATES.

I DESCRIBE ITEMS AS I AM LOOKING AT THEM. I DESCRIBE EXACTLY WHAT I SEE AS BEST AS I CAN. ALL ITEMS ARE BEING OFFERED AS FINAL SALES FROM ESTATE LIQUIDATION WITH ALL WEAR / TEAR / DAMAGE / SCRATCHES / DINGS / ETC... OF A USED VINTAGE OBJECT. I WILL ONLY CALL AN ITEM MINT IF I HONESTLY BELIEVE IT TO BE SO. I WILL ONLY CALL AN ITEM RARE / SCARCE IF I TRULY BELIEVE IT TO BE SO. 
 

MY AUCTIONS ARE PLAIN & STRAIGHT FORWARD. MY DESCRIPTIONS ARE CLEARLY WRITTEN TO UNDERSTAND. I TAKE NUMEROUS EXCELLENT CLEAR CLOSE-UP PHOTOS OF THE ITEMS. I USE PLAIN BACKGROUNDS AND SIMPLE PLAIN FONTS. I DO NOT BELIEVE IN FLUFFY BORDERS, FANCY BACKGROUNDS, OVERBLOWN WORDING OR CONFUSING FANCY LETTERING FONTS TO PROMOTE HYPE IN ATTEMPT TO MAKE AN ITEM APPEAR MORE SPECTACULAR THAN IT REALLY IS. I DO NOT USE THE DISTRACTION OF OVER-FLUFFED ADVERTISING IN AN ATTEMPT TO CAUSE AN EMOTIONAL REACTION TO IMPULSE BID & THEN HAVE BUYER'S REMORSE LATER. IF YOU ARE NOT CLEA ABOUT A DETAIL, 
PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE THE ITEM ENDS. I CANNOT CANCEL A TRANSACTION FOR QUESTIONS ASKED AFTER THE ITEM HAS ENDED.
 

PLEASE TAKE NOTE: I CANNOT END AUCTIONS EARLY FOR THE "WHAT WILL YOU TAKE FOR IT NOW?" / "WHAT IS YOUR BUY IT NOW PRICE?" EMAILS. 
COLLECTORS PLEASE DO NOT WORRY. MY ITEMS WILL NOT DISAPPEAR PART WAY THROUGH THE AUCTION FOR PURCHASE OFFERS. 
ONCE AN AUCTION IS UP & RUNNING, IT STAYS RUNNING UNTIL THE AUCTION ENDS (UNLESS I FIND A BAD DESCRIPTION ERROR & HAVE TO END THE AUCTION TO FIX THE PROBLEM & THEN RE-LIST IT.)  ALL ITEMS ARE SOLD TO THE WINNING BIDDER AT THE AMOUNT THEY WON IT FOR. I NEVER REFUSE COMPLETION OF A TRANSACTION BASED ON WHAT AN ITEMS SELLS FOR. 

THE ESTATES USUALLY PREFER STRAIGHT AUCTIONS TO FOLLOW THROUGH. THAT'S THE FUN OF AN AUCTION. PLEASE NOTE: 
OCCASIONALLY, I WILL LIST A LARGE GROUP OF ITEMS (WITH KNOWN VALUES) USING THE "BUY IT NOW OR BEST OFFER" FORMAT. ALSO, 
I NEVER PUT A RESERVE ON ANY AUCTION.
 (
RESERVES ARE JUST A PHONY WAY OF TRYING TO SELL SOMETHING BY GIVING THE ILLUSION OF AN AUCTION.)   

PLEAE NOTE: I WILL CHEERFULLY ACCEPT A RETURN IF IT'S SHOWN THAT I DO MAKE A GROSS ERROR IN DESCRIPTION. IF I MADE NO GROSS ERRORS, IT IS A NO RETURN / FINAL SALE ESTATE ITEM. 
I CANNOT ACCEPT RETURNS FOR: BUYER'S REMORSE, WRONG SIZE, WRONG COLOR, SOMETHING NOT FITTING, ETC... I CANNOT ACCEPT A RETURN IN REFERENCE TO FALSE / FRIVOLOUS / MINOR COMPLAINTS OBVIOUSLY MADE IN AN ATTEMPT TO MASK BUYER'S REMORSE. I CANNOT ACCEPT A RETURN FOR A FRAUDULENT RETURN DEMAND USING FEEDBACK INTIMIDATION. I CANNOT ACCEPT RETURNS FOR ITEMS THAT HAVE BEEN BROKEN, TAKEN APART, ALTERED OR TAMPERED WITH IN ANY WAY BY THE BUYER.   

PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO PROBLEMS WITH FRAUD, I CAN NO LONGER OFFER PARTIAL REFUNDS / DISCOUNTS. SINCE EBAY'S ZERO SELLER PROTECTION POLICIES HAVE BECOME MORE COMMONLY KNOWN, THE WHEELER DEALER HUSTLERS ARE COMING OUT OF THE WOODWORK TO MAKE FALSE / TRIVIAL COMPLAINTS & THEN ASKING FOR PARTIAL REFUNDS WITHOUT RETURNING THE ITEM. I CAN ONLY ACCEPT RETURNS IF I MAKE A GROSS ERROR IN DESCRIPTION. 

IF POSSIBLE, I TEST ALL WIND UP, ELECTRIC, MECHANICAL TYPE ITEMS & WATCHES MANUALLY AS BEST AS I CAN BEFORE LISTING. I THEN DESCRIBE WHAT I SEE AT THE TIME THEY ARE LISTED. I CANNOT OFFER ANY WARRANTIES OR RETURNS IN REFERENCE TO TO THE SECOND PRECISE TIME KEEPING ACCURACY OF VINTAGE PRE-OWNED WATCHES/CLOCKS. THE VINTAGE TIMEPIECES THAT WILL GO THROUGH RAPID TEMPERATURE, PRESSURE AND CLIMATE CHANGES DURING PRIORITY SHIPPING. I HAVE NO WAY TO PREDICT HOW WELL AN OLD WATCH/CLOCK WILL CONTINUE TO RUN PROPERLY OR KEEP GOOD TIME AFTER IT IS SHIPPED & USED BY THE NEW OWNER. MY INDICATED OBSERVATIONS IN THE DESCRIPTION ARE WHAT THE WATCH/CLOCK IS DOING IN FRONT OF ME AT THE TIME OF THE LISTING.

ALL VINTAGE TOYS, MODEL TRAINS & HOBBY ITEMS ARE BEING OFFERED AS ADULT COLLECTIBLES / HOBBY ITEMS. THEY ARE NOT BEING OFFERED AS WARRANTED / SAFETY CERTIFIED CHILD'S TOYS FOR PLAY USE.  

MANY OF THE ITEMS COME FROM BEING STORED IN OLD ESTATES FOR MANY YEARS. JUST TO BE SAFE WHEN BIDDING, PLEASE ASSUME THEY POSSIBLY DID NOT COME FROM SMOKE FREE HOMES. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT SMELLS "OLD" OR "SMELLS LIKE SMOKE" TO SOMEONE. I CANNOT OFFER ANY RETURNS FOR AN ITEM THAT A BUYER SAYS "SMELLS OLD" OR "SMELLS LIKE SMOKE". A LOT OF THE ITEM I OFFER ARE OLD. JUST ABOUT EVERYBODY SMOKED BACK THEN... SOME OF THE ITEMS PROBABLY SAT FOR DECADES IN OLD ESTATE HOMES WHERE THERE WAS SMOKING GOING.

PLEASE REMIT EBAY PAYMENTS WITHIN 3 DAYS OF AUCTION'S END. ANY MAILED PAYMENTS MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 5 DAYS OF AUCTION'S END. I AM VERY CASUAL, FRIENDLY & ACCOMMODATING, BUT NON-PAYING / NO CONTACT BIDDERS DESTROY THE VALUE OF ITEMS. YOU DID NOT MERELY "PLACE AN ORDER". YOU OUTBID MULTIPLE OTHER PEOPLE TO WIN THE ITEM. IF A WINNING BIDDER DOES NOT FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE TRANSACTION, I WILL FILE AN EBAY NON-PAYMENT CASE TO RECOUP THE EBAY FEES. THIS WILL CAUSE A NON-PAYING STRIKE ON THE WINNER'S EBAY ACCOUNT. (I CANNOT SIMPLY CANCEL TRANSACTIONS FOR BUYER'S REMORSE.)

I SHIP WITHIN 5 DAYS OF A CLEARED PAYMENT. (99% OF THE TIME, IT'S WITHIN A DAY TO TWO & SOMETIMES EVEN THE SAME NIGHT YOU PAY.) 
I ALWAYS TRY TO PACK MULTIPLE SMALL PURCHASES IN ONE BOX TO SAVE THE WINNING BIDDER A BIT ON THE SHIPPING/PACKING COST (AS LONG AS IT IS SAFE TO DO SO W/O RISK OF DAMAGING ITEMS BY JAMMING THEM IN ONE BOX.) I NEVER STACK FULL SHIPPING COSTS FOR MULTIPLE ITEMS ON TOP OF ONE ANOTHER UNLESS THEY HAVE TO BE PACKED IN SEPARATE BOXES FOR SAFETY IN TRANSIT. (
MOST HIGH VALUE, FRAGILE OR LARGE & HEAVY ITEMS WILL HAVE TO BE SHIPPED IN SEPARATE BOXES FOR SAFETY IN TRANSIT.)  

I SHIP MOST ITEMS IN THE USA VIA USPS PRIORITY MAIL W/ DEL CONF. AS PER EBAY RULES, ALL ITEMS VALUED AT $750+ ARE SHIPPED WITH SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION. I DO NOT SHIP ANYTHING VIA USPS PARCEL POST, USPS 1ST CLASS, USPS GROUND ADVANTAGE, USPS MEDIA MAIL OR FED-EX GROUND, NO EXCEPTIONS. 

I SHIP VERY LARGE & HEAVY ITEMS VIA UPS GROUND. 
PLEASE NOTE: THERE IS NO UPS GROUND SHIPPING TO ALASKA OR HAWAII. ALL ITEMS SHIPPED TO ALASKA / HAWAII WILL HAVE TO BE SENT VIA AIRMAIL. THIS WILL COST A GOOD BIT MORE THAN NORMAL UPS GROUND IN THE LOWER 48 STATES. THE UPS SHIPPING COST SHOWN IN MY LISTINGS IS FOR UPS GROUND IN THE LOWER 48 STATES. PLEASE INQUIRE ABOUT ANY LARGE ITEM AIRMAIL SHIPPING COST BEFORE THE ITEM IS WON. I CANNOT CANCEL TRANSACTIONS FOR LARGE ITEM SHIPPING COSTS AFTER THE ITEM IS WON. I DO NOT OFFER LOCAL PICK-UP AT ALL DUE TO A HORRIFIC BUSINESS SCHEDULE. I ONLY SHIP ITEMS. NO EXCEPTIONS.

FOREIGN BUYERS USING A 3RD PARTY FREIGHT FORWARDING COMPANY WITH A USA MAILING ADDRESS TO CIRCUMVENT MY PROHIBITED COUNTRIES LIST, TAKE CAREFUL NOTICE: ALL OF MY AUCTIONS ARE USA ONLY LISTINGS. I DO NOT SHIP OUT OF THE USA. I CONSIDER THE EBAY REGISTERED U.S.A. MAILING ADDRESS AS THE BUYER'S ADDRESS. (THE UNKNOWN OVERSEAS LOCATION THE BOX WILL EVENTUALLY BE FREIGHT FORWARDED TO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME. WHEN THE USPS TRACKING SHOWS THE ITEM DELIVERED TO THE EBAY REGISTERED ADDRESS, IT'S DELIVERED.) 

I DO NOT OFFER DISCOUNTS OR RETURNS FOR COMPLAINTS MADE AFTER AN ITEM GOES THROUGH 3RD PARTY FREIGHT FORWARDING & UNKNOWN 3RD PARTY HANDS. I DO NOT WRITE ANY FREIGHT FORWARDING CUSTOMER ID NUMBERS (DISGUISED AS FAKE "SUITE - APARTMENT - ATTN: - C/O, NUMBERS, JUMBLED CODE LETTERS, ETC...) ANYWHERE ON THE BOX OR ADDRESS LABEL. I ONLY WRITE THE WINNING BIDDER'S ACTUAL REGISTERED EBAY USER NAME AND ONLY ADDRESSES THAT THE USPS POST OFFICE OR UPS MAILING ADDRESS COMPUTERS CONFIRM AS THE ACTUAL ADDRESS.
