Please check my other auctions and my E-BAY Store.If you are interested in something that I am selling on a live auction, chances are that I have other similar Items for sale.I am selling a lot of items that belonged to my dad who passed away a almost 20 years ago.Most of his items are
Ham Radio
(W2OEA) and
Aircraft Items
and
Airline Memorabilia
My dad was a flight crewmember for American Airlines in the 40’s.He was furloughed and then worked for Seaboard & Western Airlines, Seaboard World Airlines and then Flying Tigers Line which is now Fedex (as a note, when my dad passed away I donated quite a bit of his stuff to the American Airlines Museum in Dallas Texas.The arrogant, inconsiderate group of folks there didn’t as much as say thanks.) Anyway, now that I got that out of my system…
I have a lot of
Arcade-Video Game
and
Boating
related items.I am getting ready to take another extended sailing trip, and I would prefer to clean out some of my storage spaces as well as put aside some Money for the trip.Like my dad, I’m quite a “pack rat” and will have a lot of interesting things to sell in the near future.I appreciate your bids!!!! Also, since I sell a lot of stuff untested and As-Is, if you could mention the condition & whether it worked or not in your feedback, it would be appreciated.I am doing my best to describe and represent this stuff as accurately as possible. Thanks a LOT!!!

Please note: All of my descriptions are from a reasonably untrained eye. I am not an expert and describe these things as I perceive them. I am a GIA certified
gemologist
.  I try to grade older items as I would a stone...  Color, defects, rarity, etc.  I then try to value them accordingly. You may pay a bit more for some of my items, but like a diamond, you pay more for color, clarity and no defects. I try to take photos that accurately describe the items. If you have any questions or would like better photos please contact me. All shipping rates apply for Continental U.S. Shipping only! Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico will probably be higher. Cost of international shipments will be determined by package type and destination. If this is a concern of yours PLEASE contact for the cost BEFORE you bid. It is not unusual to have the shipping cost to some locations exceed the purchase price by 2 or 3 times! If you purchase more than one auction from me, I will be more than happy to combine shipping charges DEPENDING ON ITEMS, I cannot combine heavy items because they must be shipped
separately
anyway. I don't try to make money on shipping and usually end up paying more than I charge.
If an Item is listed as Local Pick-up Only, I would prefer that method. However, if you wish to arrange shipping, I will be happy to make myself reasonably available for the shipper, and will help make it happen. In this case, I will not be responsible for the length of time that the item takes to ship, for the packing/crating, or for the condition in which it arrives.
I am not always home when the auctions end so please do not wait until the end to ask a question.Thank you for bidding on my auctions.
