STORAGE FEES--DELAYED PICKUP/SHIPMENT OF GOODS
When we set or agree to a price for the sale of an item, we assume the buyer will be paying/arranging for shipment or picking the item up very shortly. We never have enough room to store items not yet sold, let alone sold items (and we really don't want to be in the business of storing items). Items that are left here are continually in the way and are subject to damage and degradation as they are continually moved around to make way for ongoing activity.
Items where shipping arrangements and payment have not been made, or where the item is not otherwise picked up, within 20 days of the sale date (even though the item itself has been paid for) are subject to a daily storage fee. The fee for small, hand-held size items is $1 per day. The fee for items that ship on a pallet is $5 per day. Between size items are subject to daily fees between these two numbers. Really BIG stuff may be subject to storage fees of as much as $100 per day.
The buyer forfeits the item and any payments made when the fees reach the sale price of the item or at 90 days, whichever comes first. No money will be returned for forfeited items. Items are subject to re-listing immediately upon forfeiture.
For items that have incurred storage fees, electronic payment of the fees due or cash will be required for the item to be shipped or released for pickup.
If you think you may have reason for delayed pickup, contact us in advance to get an estimate of the cost.
We hate to have to institute this policy but unclaimed items are consuming our precious limited storage space that we have to pay dearly for.
