Knitting and Crochet books and magazines and Yarn.
Hey, all.
I'm selling off some of my yarn supplies so I can buy new flooring for my house. This stuff is posted on Ravelry, too. I'll maintain the list of what is pending and what is sold in both places. If something is marked as pending and you are interested, let me know, because if it falls through, I'll go down the list of people who are interested.
Usually when I sell stuff online, I post pictures somewhere, but I cannot for the life of me find the cable for our digital camera, so I’ll tell you what it is and let you know if there is any damage other than normal wear. For more info on the books, search Amazon for them. The yarn all has links to places where you can see the colors on the web.
Generally, prices are roughly 50% of the retail price or a little less. My username on eBay is annilita if you want to see my 100% feedback there. (Not to brag or anything… LOL!)
Terms:
I will take checks if you mail them right away. I will deposit them and wait a week before sending your stuff in case there are any problems. (Been burned on this before, so I’m extra cautious now.)
Paypal is accepted. Edit: I was charging to cover the fees but people keep emailing me saying I can't do that. So, normally I cover delivery confirmation, but from now on I will not charge PayPal fees and will instead add $.75 to the shipping charges to cover the delivery confirmation.
PM me and tell me what you’d like. INCLUDE YOUR ZIP CODE and I’ll send you the price with the shipping charges included. I only charge the actual price of postage (+ 75 cents for delivery confirmation). If I get to the PO and find out I’ve overcharged, I’ll refund the difference. If I find out I’ve undercharged, I generally eat the difference myself. I’m more than happy to ship overseas.
