L22205: Pair of Brass Palm Tree Candlestick Candle Holders, about 7" tall. These are in used condition and have some paint chips and wax residue. EACH one weighs a little over 1lb 14oz. Felt / fabric base. They have not been cleaned or polished, as some buyers may prefer the aged patina of brass. Please review all of the photos closely as they are part of the description, many look the same but are of different sides of the candle sticks. Also, the color is more realistic / accurate on the outside photos - it is very difficult to capture an accurate color of these indoors with a 4 year old phone. If you have any questions or concerns about these, or would like more photos, please feel free to ask. Due to the unique size and shape of these items and to minimize shipping costs, they will ship dis-assembled (see the last photo). They are very easy to re-assemble. Ships via your choice of economy or priority mail in a recycled box.
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR ALL OF MY EBAY ITEMS:
Most of the items I sell on eBay are used, vintage items - they are NOT PERFECT and may have nicks, scratches, scrapes, dings, wear, etc. from prior use. Some imperfections are difficult to see and/or photograph. Please keep this in mind when bidding, purchasing, or making/accepting an offer. I do the best I can to offer photos of all sides and angles of the items I sell so that flaws can be seen, and to give a general idea as to the condition of the item. If you have any concerns or questions about the condition of an item, please ask before bidding, purchasing, or making or accepting an offer - I will be glad to send more photos or re-examine an item and address your concerns. I want you to be exceptionally happy with your purchase and my service. Also, I sometimes use props (such as jewelry, coins, candy, etc) to help show size, colors, etc. and these are NOT included in a sale unless otherwise stated in the listing.
I UNDERSTAND THAT SHIPPING IS EXPENSIVE, but the calculated rate that you see is eBay's negotiated/discounted rate, and is generally quite a bit less than the retail rate. I DO NOT charge handling fees (unless otherwise noted in a listing), nor do I make any money on shipping; as a seller, eBay charges me based on the TOTAL sale price of an item INCLUDING the shipping charge. Since the buyer pays postage on most of my listings, TWO STANDARD SHIPPING OPTIONS WILL USUALLY BE OFFERED: Economy (parcel post, retail, or first class - whichever is least expensive) and Priority Mail. Buyer chooses. Generally, only Priority Mail carries insurance, and parcel post can take much longer to deliver. I tend to automatically check flat-rate shipping rates when purchasing your label, and if it is cheaper and practical I will ship with that option and refund the difference to you.
OTHER SHIPPING OPTIONS: I normally ship through USPS because that is what is available in my small town and it is easiest, but I will gladly check on other shipping options for you if requested - please include your zip code in your eBay message and I will check UPS and FedEx rates. These are sometimes a better option for larger, heavier items - depending on your distance from South Carolina.
SHIPPING TIMES: I strive to get your order on the way to you as soon as I receive payment confirmation from eBay, but it is likely that your order will ship the following business day, and may possibly take longer depending on my shift schedule and the time of your order/payment. I rotate 12-13 hour shifts at a manufacturing plant 50 minutes from home, and I cannot print your shipping label or schedule a carrier pickup until I am home. Carrier pickups for the following business day must be entered before 2AM. If you order at 5PM and I am on night shift, I will not be home to process your order or schedule a pickup until the next morning (and that pickup would be for the following day). Also, our USPS branch closes at 10:45AM on Saturdays, and has no Sunday pickup.
PAYMENT is appreciated once you agree to purchase an item or accept an offer, and is expected within 48 hours. That helps me to get the item prepared and on the way to you faster, while working around a 12-13 hour rotating shift schedule mentioned above. PLEASE be considerate of my other watchers and buyers, as well as your seller :-)
COMBINED SHIPPING: I WILL GLADLY COMBINE SHIPPING when I can, JUST ASK!!! It saves money for both of us; Due to my work schedule, I am not able to visit my shop every day, so it MAY take a couple days to get you a combined shipping quote - not likely, but it is possible. It also depends on whether I have a proper sized box available for the items you would like shipped together. My preference is that you send me a message with the items you are interested in, and give me a chance to check on it for you.
WHILE I DO NOT OFFER RETURNS, I certainly want you to be pleased with your purchase and my service. If purchased item is not as described or arrives with obvious damage not shown in the pictures or description, please let me know so that I can try to offer a solution. I pack items for shipment very carefully (while trying not to overcharge on shipping), but sometimes accidents happen. If shipping damage does occur OR if your item arrives damaged, PLEASE SAVE ALL OF THE PACKAGING as the carrier will sometimes request to see it in order to process an insurance claim. In some instances, it may be the responsibility of the buyer to file the insurance claim with the carrier.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH for shopping and/or purchasing from me. It is appreciated!!
