Why do all of
your auctions start at 1¢ and listed AS IS? |
|
All of the items
that we list on eBay have been declared surplus and were
used on a daily basis for up to 3 years (sometimes longer).
Most items are only checked to make sure that they power up.
PCs and laptops are powered up, and their hard drives
formatted. Please consult each item's auction
description for the amount of testing done. |
|
If I offer you X
amount of money, will you end the auction early? |
| I'm sorry,
but I cannot end any auction early, or sell outside of eBay. |
|
Can I pay via
money order? |
| You
can pay via money order only if you plan on picking up the
item. For items requiring shipment, we only accept
PayPal.
Local pickup items can be paid via Cash / Check / Money
Order / Visa / MasterCard / PayPal. |
|
When and
where can I pickup an auction item? |
| Local pickup times
are between the hours of 9:00 am to 4:00 pm, Monday -
Friday. Please send an email with a pick up date and
time. Due to our limited amount of storage at the pick
up location, we ask that you let us know ahead of time so we
may only move down what is about to be picked up.
Pickups are made at 132 North Main Street, Salisbury, NC
28144.
There are no additional charges for local pickup. You must tell
me the first and last name of the person who will be picking
up the item. They will also be required to display a
picture ID before the item will be released. |
|
I won the
auction, now what? |
| If you
reside in the United States, and require shipment, please
use the shipping calculator, located on the bottom of the
auction page, to determine shipping charges. Then send
a PayPal payment, including both the final auction amount +
the shipping charge. You do not need to wait for an
email from me. The faster you send in payment, the
faster I can get the item to you. |
| If you plan
on picking up your item, please visit
www.salisburync.gov/auctions/pickup.html for more
information. |
| Remember,
you only have 5 days to pay for an auction, so bear that in
mind. Failure to pay within the 5 day window (the
window can be expanded for large items that require special
handling) will result in you losing your winning bid status,
and the item being re-listed. A non-paying bidder claim
will be filed against you with eBay. |
|
How much to
ship to (country name)? |
| Please use the
shipping calculator on the auction page to determine
shipping charges. If the auction is for something that
has to be dropped off for packing & shipping, use the "ask
the seller a question" link and tell me the city / country
you wish to get a quote for, and I'll contact the local
shippers and get you a rough quote. |
|
Who do you
use for shipping? |
| Depending on
the size and destination of the package, either UPS (large /
heavy items) or Post Office Priority mail (small / light
items). International shipments are done via the Post
Office. Large items cannot be shipped internationally.
Please check each auction for individual shipping options. |
|
What happens
if an item is damaged or lost in shipping? |
Uninsured
items - nothing can be done.
Lost insured items - contact me for instructions
Visibly damaged items - All of our auctions are sold AS
IS, meaning that minimal testing has been done, and
therefore we cannot guarantee the item is in complete
working condition. However, if you notice visible damage on
an item (or the box it was shipped in) that isn't depicted in the auction image, DO NOT
throw away the box or shipping material. UPS requires
that the original shipping box and material be available for
inspection before an insurance claim can be accepted.
If you throw any of this away beforehand, they will decline
your insurance claim. |
