Please read the following:
●●●
PLEASE DO NOT PAY BEFORE YOU HEAR FROM ME
●●●
●●●
VERY IMPORTANT
●●●
Please be sure to ●●●
Read the Small Print
●●● and ●●●
Wait For My Invoice
●●● before sending a payment so I can make adjustments if needed. The invoice eBay sends is often ●●●
incorrect
●●● so
please please
do not use it except if it is sent for the ●●●
Global Shipping Program
●●● in which case, the seller cannot
●●●
send or amend
●●●
it.
●●●
VERY IMPORTANT
●●● Please note that the
USPS
does not offer
economy shipping
for close destinations unless the item is
dangerous and must travel by ground
. Otherwise, Priority will be the only service offered. Considering that some buyers are across the country, I am listing
Parcel Select
first due to the
weight
of the packed carton. I have
added insurance
to cover a
Parcel Shipment
. I will need to change the invoice to
●●●
Priority
●●●
if you are in or not far from
NYS
and
remove the  insurance
. Please wait for me to send my own
corrected invoice
. Priority is always the
correct service
from NY to KY for the GSP. Very often the shipping costs are
nearly the same
for more distant zip codes in which case I always choose Priority which is
faster
.
SO PLEASE WAIT TO PAY!
Domestic buyers, please be sure to
●●●
wait for
my own invoice
.

OFFERED IS A VERY CHARMING SET OF
MUGS & PLATES
THAT WAS
MADE IN JAPAN
FOR
DEPARTMENT 56
. THIS IS THE
SCOTTIE CAFE PATTERN
THAT WAS DESIGNED BY
LYNDA SYLVESTER
. IT IS DISTINGUISHED BY ITS
BLACK SILHOUETTE SCOTTISH TERRIER
AND YELLOW AND BLACK STRIPES. THIS VERY FINE CHINA WAS
MARKETED
IN THE
1980s
. I PRESUME THAT THIS PATTERN WAS
DISCONTINUED
A LONG TIME AGO THUS PIECES ARE ONLY AVAILABLE FROM THE
SECONDARY MARKETPLACE
. IF YOU ALREADY COLLECT THIS PATTERN IT WILL BE GREAT TO ADD THESE PIECES TO YOUR SERVICE OR IT WILL BE A GREAT STSRT TO A NEW COLLECTION.  IT WILL SURELY BE A
MUCH APPRECIATED GIFT
FOR A COLLECTOR ON YOUR CIRCLE OF
FAMILY & FRIENDS
. EIGHT PIECES SENT FOR
ONE SHIPPING COST
SHOULD BE AN INCENTIVE.
●●●
VALUED SHOPPERS
●●●
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT MY 17 YEARS OF EBAY EXPERIENCE HAS TAUGHT ME THAT IT IS BEST FOR A PROSPECTIVE BIDDER TO CONTACT ME WITH THEIR SUGGESTED OFFER BEFORE CLICKING IT ON THE OFFER PAGE BECAUSE THE LISTING
REMAINS IN LIMBO
UNTIL IT IS SETTLED. DURING THIS TIME
I CANNOT REVISE THE LISTING IN ANY WAY
.
ALL REASONABLE OFFERS WILL BE CAREFULLY REVIEWED AND CONSIDERED
.
I PACK
EXTREMELY WELL
SO YOUR SHIPMENT WILL BE
●●●
WORRY FREE
.
●●●
THANKS FOR VIEWING MY LISTING AND
●●●
GOOD LUCK
●●●
IF YOU DECIDE TO BID.

SPLENDID IMPORTED CHINA

THE MEASUREMENTS
:
The plates are approximately 7 5/8" in diameter. The mugs are approximately 4 1/8" across the top, 2 3/4" high and 5" wide including the handle. The weight of all together is just under 6 pounds. The completed package will ship Priority or Parcel Select insured at the 7 pound rate.
THE CONDITION
:
The overall condition is
excellent
with no damage.
●●●
Please allow the photos to guide you as they are the lion’s share of this description.
●●●
This is what I see: the plates have some light marks possibly from the mugs being moved around; one plate has a manufactured dot; one cup has a pottery “pimple” on the inside wall; lastly, there is a small amount of table friction on the unglazed base rings.
●●●
I hope I have not missed anything. If I did, it was surely minor and 100% unintentional.
●●●
Just about
99%
of the collectibles I offer are
vintage/pre-owned
and will show
handling/use
. I often
heighten
the
contrast
in my pictures to bring out all the
details
. The color you see may be slightly
brighter
or
different
than it actually is. Please
inquire
if you are
concerned
.

SHIPPING INFORMATION

Global Shipping Program
.

Please Wait
for my invoice before sending a payment. A

●●●
VERY IMPORTANT
●●● Due to new internet tax laws, eBay calculates, collects and remits sales tax on behalf of sellers for items shipped to customers in the following states: AL, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, NE, NV, NJ, NM, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, PR, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WA, WV, WI & WY. Additional states will be added to this list as required.
Please understand
that when I use the
shipping calculator
it is for your
convenience
so you can
approximate
how much you will be adding to your bid. It is just an
●●●
estimate
●●●
determined by weighing a
partially packed
item. It makes no sense for me to complete a box not knowing if the item will actually be sold. Most of the time the
amount is correct
but occasionally, after securely packing the item, the weight brings the shipping charge to the
next pound cut-off point
. Sometimes the box weighs less than anticipated! In order to
prevent an error
it is important to
wait
for my
contact letter
and
invoice
.
The
continually rising postal rates
have created a difficult situation for sellers. I have
no control
over the price of shipping. If your zip code is far from my location please check the cost before bidding. Please note that I
ship very promptly
but sometimes the mail service is
not as fast
as anticipated. If you are the
winner
please take this into consideration when using the
5 star rating system
. Thanks..........ppaacckkrraatt
An important note to my valued bidders
:
Please be advised that clicking a
●●●
score of 4
●●●
is
unsatisfactory
according to
eBay's seller standards
and is
considered a negative
, so a
●●●
rating of 5
●●●
across the board is what
I always strive to achieve
. After you have received and examined your item, if you feel I have not earned a 5 star rating in any of the categories, please
contact me immediately
through the "Contact Seller" tab and allow me to correct anything you think is
●●●
less than promised
.
●●●
Non-domestic bidders
,
please
do not request
a
falsified customs slip
. Items will be identified as
eBay merchandise
with a
value
reflecting the
winning bid
price. Please be aware that you are
fully responsible
for any and all
import duties, tariffs and taxes
imposed by your country.  Import duties, taxes and fees are
not included
in the item price or shipping charges. These
charges
are the
buyer’s responsibility
. Please check with your country’s
customs office
to determine what these
additional costs
will be
prior
to
bidding/buying
.

eBayers, please read
:
I am always ready and able to provide attentive communication in order to insure a smooth and pleasant transaction. I work very hard to maintain
●●●
100% positive feedback
●●●

●●●
perfect 5* DSR ratings
.
●●●
Feedback
is a key
indicator
of a buyer's or seller's
reputation
and is very
important
to
exchange
. Positive feedback tells me that your shipment
arrived safely
and that you are a
happy buyer
. In the
unlikely
event that there is a
problem
with your shipment please
notify
me
immediately
and give me the
opportunity
to
resolve
any issues you may have. As always,
thanking
you kindly for your eBay business.
IMPORTANT
!
If you are the
winner
of my auction(s) or have asked a
question
and I have not contacted you please note that my computer is on the
Cable System Internet
which goes down occasionally, especially during
icy weather
or
thunderstorms
. Sometimes we totally lose
electricity
which can take the technicians many hours to repair. In addition, my
mac
could get a..........
headache
and need to go to the
apple hospital
! I do not have any additional
internet connecting devices
. Please be
patient
! If this happens I will be back online ASAP.
