Additional Notes
-
Oustanding examples by this maker and decorator in a truly rare design. Copeland first made the Aesop's Fables line in the 1830's in black, red and green unpainted transfer. This is from a custom made set for a buyer at Ovington's Retail Store in 1879-1880. I have more pieces of the set in varying degrees of condition and will be putting them up for bids over the next few weeks. From a fine Chicago auction with many unique items. This production variant made with full color hand painted scenes is quite rare and highly desirable.
General note for item conditions
:All items come to me as previously owned so I cannot attest as to their treatment and environment prior to coming into my posession. I clean most of my items as they come in but if I deam an item to fragile or to be overall very clean then I may decide to skip the cleaning process.
Display items
: Items used to display pieces for sale or auction such as plate stands and other devices are never part of the auction or fixed price sale unless otherwise stated in the listing.
Special Shipping Instructions
:Shipping costs are based on the eBay calculator that uses my dimensions and approximate weight of the item to calculate its charges. I base all shipping on single box standard packing materials used i.e. bubble wrap, paper, peanuts. If for some reason you need to make a change to the shipping method, such as, requesting double boxing please notify me of this before making your payment so that I can send you an adjusted invoice with proper shipping costs applied as the cost may be higher. Since my items are never prepacked I do my best to estimate this but its possible I may be off so I will refund the difference if significant enough to merit the refund process "generally anything over ".
Overseas Shipping Note: Please note that I will never falsify any shipping documents and will only ship to eBay and Paypal approved addresses.
Multiple Purchases: If you bid on an item and wish to purchase another one of my items several days later please notify me via eBay email service and do not make payment until invoiced as I am under contract with eBay to ship within 24 hours of recript of payment to keep my rating status high.
Rating: I value my rating and work hard to maintain it through excellent customer service. Please contact me if you experience any issues and I will do all I can to satisfy your concerns. You will always be treated with respect when dealing with me in my shop.
