Quality Control- I do my absolute best to document through photo's and descriptions each item. I use the internet to research most items if it history is not intuitive. I do my level best to provide accurate context. I make no guarantee's on the accuracy of the info. So I recommend that you ask questions before you purchase as I do not do returns or exchanges or post sale discounts or partial refunds.
Shipping charge is an estimate. I will refund any shipping cost overage in excess of $3.99 where the actual shipping charge is less than the estimated payed at purchase. I ship USPS or FedEx, whichever is less expensive for you.
I protect, wrap and pack each item meticulously. I ship with new and recycled packing material including foam, bubble wrap and filler so that your purchase has ample space, is adequately cushioned and is totally secure in a new shipping box that is vigorously taped to ensure the box will remain closed. It may take a couple of minutes to actually open the box. ;-)
I would venture to say my packing and shipping process are four sigma quality. It's tight.
My packaging consists of new cardboard shipping boxes, I assume some percentage of that material is recycled. I wrap items in a combination of wrapping paper, foam wrap and/or bubble wrap. I fill the empty space with a combination of recycled newspaper and magazine paper and sometimes foam pool "noodles". I am not 100% sustainable in my packaging, I am probably closer to 50%.
My mission is to get the item you have purchased to you undamaged nor maligned.
I make every effort to clearly describe and photograph each item. These are vintage items and will show some signs of use. I will try to point out major use marks but may miss some or not point out small or age appropriate or inconsequential marks.
All sales are final, so if you need more information, please convo me prior to purchase.

Any post purchase issues will be governed by Etsy overall buyer and seller policies as well as those unique to my shop, ThePeddlersSong.
I will ship either USPS or FedEx which ever is less expensive. I refund the difference between actual shipping charges and the estimated shipping charges you pay that are in excess of $3.99.
I as the seller take responsibility to file a claim on line with USPS or other carrier if insurance or an insured label (USPS Priority $100) has been purchased by the buyer. Refunds will only cover up to the amount of insurance purchased by the buyer. The buyers responsibility for the claim is to notify the seller via Shop Etsy conversations link as upon opening the package and discovering actual damage. Buyer agrees to take pictures of the damage, the shipping material and the box and to retain all shipping materials in the event that the product shipped and damaged by USPS.) The reason the buyer needs to retain the material that although unlikely, the USPS/FedEx may request to inspect the damage and the shipping material at the buyers local post office before approving the claim. Approval of claims usually take less than a week. I will only refund purchase price and shipping if the claim is approved by USPS.
