eBay My World: ian_cook_uk( 3915)

A retired Royal Navy Sailor of some 25 years. After hurting my back quite severely at work, I am now selling pieces from my vast collection of silver plate that I have collected over the years.

Affordable antiques, specifically old English silver plated pieces.

Anything, except (I hope) enemies!

Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, By Translating Software

Historical, within my field of interests.

Cheques drawn on a UK Bank are willingly accepted and preferred for items with a selling price over £15GBP. This helps keep the fees to a minimum. (they are rich enough)! However, UK banking Institutes charge a fortune for International cheques or money orders therefore, Paypal is the only acceptable means of payment by International Buyers. I will at my discretion accept a direct bank transfer for multiple win buyers - please advise at checkout for details.

Postage charges include a small fee towards the materials I use to ensure your item arrives to you in the condition it left me. Where possible I use recycled boxes, or make a box to fit the piece within. This ensures (to the best of my ability) that your items are protected as much as possible. Insurance is always offered and highly recommended however, should you choose not to take up this offer then the responsibility for loss or damage will have to rest with you - The purchaser! I use Biodegradable filling as well as bubble wrap the cost of which is not cheap. I do, therefore add a small sum to help cover the cost of this extra protection.
