I have lots of other knives for sale in my store - check them out.
All knives are sold AS IS.  I am learning more about them every day, but certainly would not call myself an expert.  I do my very best to describe each knife accurately, but if you have questions, please ask before bidding – or feel free to offer your expertise.  I’m always glad to learn more.
Collecting knives has really become popular in the last 20 years and my husband has joined this group.  We like to hunt for interesting ones at auctions and estate sales from which most of these are found.
Thanks a lot for looking ~ Kath
FINDING TREASURES TO MAKE YOU HAPPY!
WELCOME TO
TREASURES FROM KATH
My goal is to make you happy with your entire eBay experience. As a school principal I used to deal with people’s children.  Now I just deal with their “junk.”  It’s a lot less stress.  I love to treasure hunt at auctions, yard & estate sales, and thrift stores for items that intrigue me and I hope will be a treasure to you.  Almost all the items in my store are used.  Some are labeled vintage, which really means ~ of a certain period.
~ CONDITION ~
The first priority is to honestly describe every item for sale.  I inspect each treasure carefully, sometimes try to clean it up, then photograph it to show any condition issues.  Sometimes photos don’t show the details or color well enough, or reflections play tricks on shiny items. I am not a good photographer, so I will TRY to note any problems I have found.  Please look at the photos carefully and ask any questions before you bid.  If you find that your purchase is not as you understood it to be, I will accept almost all returns (unless otherwise stated AS IS on particular items) if you notify me within THIRTY days of receiving your item.  Please be assured that my goal is to make you happy with your purchase.
~ PAYMENT ~
With eBay managed payments, I can accept methods other than Paypal.  Sometimes things come up that cause an inability to pay.  Please let me know and don’t leave me wondering.  If payment isn’t received within 4 days, I will open an unpaid item case.
~ SHIPPING ~
Quick shipping is a priority.  Most items go out the next business day following your payment.  I use USPS First Class or Priority Mail. During the holiday season you can expect delays.  I will also ship internationally, but the costs are very high, even for small items.
You are responsible for all duties & taxes on your items, as well as knowing about any restricted items (for example – knives/lighters). I will not change value on any purchase.
All treasures are securely packed and sometimes insured depending on your preference or the value.  If you feel that the shipping cost is high, please bear in mind that shipping involves more than just the postage. It includes packaging materials (which are often recycled, so please don’t mind the weird box) and driving to the post office. If there is a way to reduce your cost, I will try to do so. Combined purchases are welcome and will reduce postage fees. I want to work with you to deliver your treasure in the fastest and safest way.
~ FEEDBACK ~
Please contact me with any questions about an item before you bid.  I also appreciate any additional information about items from anyone who knows more.  I love learning about collectibles from all the experts out there. Positive feedback is so important to me, that's why I try hard, so you feel like giving it.  I will leave feedback for you after I've heard you've safely received your treasure.
If you have trouble leaving feedback for me, please let me know, so I can inform eBay of the problem.
Thanks for reading this far
