1. All items are sold AS-IS. So it is the bidder's responsibility to view all photos, read descriptions and/or contact Purcell Auctions for more details before bidding. Purcell Auctions will describe and grade as best to our ability, but we are not experts so therefore will not be held accountable for any bidder disagreement with descriptions and grading of items received, unless item has been grossly misrepresented.
2. In general, items are NON-RETURNABLE unless item has been grossly misrepresented.
3. Purcell Auctions does not guarantee any authenticity or originallity to items sold as there are many reproductions, fantasy pieces, remakes, etc of antiques and collectibles.
4. We ship in-house many items through UPS Ground and USPS flat rate priority and combine shipping to help save our customers on shipping and packaging fees. Some items, especially easily breakable items, may go to a third-party shipper, Postal Pal, of Anna, IL. Winning bidders will be sent an email and invoice within 48 hours of auction's end indicating items won with our 15 percent premium added, and shipping fee. If item is to be shipped by Postal Pal, Postal Pal will contact you either by email or phone with their shipping fees and you will pay them directly for those fees. If your item is to be shipped via Postal Pal, your invoice from us will not include a shipping fee.
5. We must have a physical address to ship as your item may be shipped via UPS, which does not deliver to UPS boxes. If you must have your item shipped to a post office box, please email us so that we can be sure to ship your item via USPS.
