Terms of Sale

 

1.   All items are guaranteed genuine unless otherwise noted in the description or the attributions appended.  Most items offered are one-of-a-kind; all items listed are accompanied by a scanned image.  Each illustration is of the actual item with no alterations or enhancements.

 

2.   We offer a 7 day return privilege for any reason on all items with two exceptions that are described in detail below.  All items must be returned using the same shipping means, insured, and in their original labeled & undamaged holder.  The merchandise must not have been offered for resale or submitted for third party grading and must be in the same condition as when it left our hands.  The full purchase price, less shipping & insurance costs and credit card processing fees (if a credit card was used for payment) will be refunded upon receipt of the material.  We do not offer items on approval so please do not abuse this return  privilege as you potentially could deprive another buyer of the opportunity to purchase the item.

 

The two exceptions to the above guidelines are:

a.  No item may be returned because of a defect that has been noted in the descriptive information.

b.  No item that has been described as being graded by a third-party may be returned; periodically we offer items graded and encapsulated by third-party grading services and it is therefore not possible for us to examine or grade these items for ourselves while in the sealed holders. 

In these two instances we offer the item AS-IS, with no return privilege. 

 

3.   We reserve the right to withdraw any item offered, at our discretion.

 

4.   Prices are subject to change without notice.

 

5.  All prices noted are in United States dollars (USD). U.S. residents may submit payment by cash, check, Postal Money Order, cashiers check or credit card (VISA, MasterCard or Discover).  All orders paid for with cash, Postal Money Order, or credit card will be shipped immediately.  Shipment to persons unknown to us paying by check or cashiers check will require 10 bank working days for the check to clear both banks.  Please note--we recommend that cash payments sent through the mail be insured for the full amount submitted.

 

6.  Unfortunately, because of the increased incidence of payment problems experienced in the industry with overseas shipments, all non-United States buyers must submit payment in cash.  No credit cards, or checks can be accepted.  Again, please be sure to insure your shipment for the full amount of the payment enclosed.

 

7.  All orders must be submitted via the U.S. Postal Service, FAX, email or telephone.  We welcome VISA, MasterCard, and Discover credit card purchases.  To allow us to obtain the information required to process credit card orders and to maintain the necessary level of security, all credit card purchases must be completed by telephone or email.  You may contact us at the following addresses or numbers with all orders or questions:

a.   email: vern@vernpotter.com.

b.   Telephone: 310-326-0406

c.   Mobile phone: 310-994-3871

d.   FAX: 310-326-0406

8.   We are pleased to offer Volume Discounts as follows:

a.   Purchase totals (excluding packaging, postage & insurance) that exceed $300 may deduct 5%.

b.   Purchase totals (excluding packaging, postage & insurance) that exceed $500 may deduct 10%.

c.   Dealer inquiries are invited.

9.   Before placing an order, we recommend calling or emailing us to check on the availability of the items desired.  We make every effort to maintain this Site current but time and memory lapses have been known to occur.  We will place a brief hold on any items selected, pending receipt of your order and payment.

 

10. All deliveries made within California must include 9.50% of the purchase total (excluding postage and insurance) for State Sales Tax.  California dealers must submit, or have on file in our office, a valid Resale Certificate.

 

11. All items will be shipped via U.S. Postal Service (USPS) insured under our private insurer's coverage at the same rates offered by the USPS, unless other arrangements are requested at the time the order is placed.  Please select the appropriate postage and insurance fee from the following table and add it to your order total (excluding postage & insurance):
