Text Box: Summary of Our Selling Policies 

Payment Requirements:  Checkout is expected within 72 hours of purchase and payment is required within 10 calendar days. After 10 calendar days and with no firm payment information, "non-paying bidder" will be filed with eBay®  and item will be re-listed for sale.  If you cannot meet these requirements, please contact us for special payment arrangements. 

Payment Methods:  We accept Paypal®, Money Orders, Cashiers Checks, Major Credit Cards, and Personal Checks (clearance time varies based on buyer’s eBay® and Paypal® reputation).  To pay with a United States Credit Card (not with a Credit Card within Paypal), click the Credit Card Payments Link at the top of this page.  International Credit Cards are not accepted at this time.    Instant Paypal®  payments received before midnight, will ship before NOON the next business day (Monday through Friday).  Paypal® e-checks will be held until payment clears.  We reserve the right to require a daytime phone number and/or other information before shipment is made to help eliminate fraudulent purchases to unverified addresses.  Returned checks will incur a $30 returned check fee or the maximum allowable by state law, whichever is greater.  If unpaid, bad checks will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Sales Tax:  OKLAHOMA RESIDENTS ONLY will be charged the current legal percentage, as if purchase was made in the 73099 zip code, per the State Of Oklahoma's Standard Sales Tax Tables, which includes shipping and handling.   

Shipping and Handling:  Please use the shipping calculator prior to bidding, unless a flat shipping rate is quoted in the auction.  Charges include actual shipping and a nominal fee for packing labor and materials.    
 
Domestic Shipping: Shipping methods offered with each auction, and depending on merchandise/weight, may include: USPS Express Mail®, USPS Priority Mail®, USPS First Class Mail®, USPS Parcel Post®, USPS Media Mail®, and/or UPS Ground®.  Shipping and handling charges vary and should be calculated before bidding by using the shipping calculator, unless a flat shipping rate is quoted. 

International Shipping:  Available via USPS International Express Mail® and USPS International Priority Mail® only.  Check the auction listing and use the shipping calculator to check and see if the item you wish to bid on is available for shipment to your country. If not, e-mail us at ebay@smecs.info, and if possible, we will open the item for international shipping.  Shipping and handling charges vary and should be calculated before bidding by using the shipping calculator, unless a flat shipping rate is quoted.  We will complete all customs forms as required by law and pay all US taxes.  Recipient is responsible for all taxes/delivery charges required to receive the shipment.  All of our products are intended for the US market unless stated otherwise; please purchase accordingly.   
 
Delivery Time: We ship every weekday morning (excluding holidays).  Your payment method determines when your order ships...
Instant PayPal® Payment today—We will ship your order before noon next business day (Monday through Friday).  
Paypal® eChecks—We hold shipment until payment is cleared by Paypal®, then ship next business day (Monday through Friday).  
Money Order or Cashiers Check—We will ship your merchandise before noon next business day (Monday through Friday) after receipt of payment.

Insurance:  At buyer's option; seller is not responsible for shipments that are lost or damaged and uninsured after they enter the carrier's delivery system.  If you insure your shipment, and it is lost or damaged, we will file the claim with your assistance. 

Refunds & Returns: Upon receipt of merchandise, if dissatisfied with transaction, call seller at 405-354-4100 or e-mail Seller directly at ebay@smecs.info with details and possible methods for fair resolution. New items carry manufacturer's warranty and/or seller's 30-day guarantee. No refunds or exchanges after 30 days. No refunds on shipping & handling, unless it is our mistake.  Leavers of Negative Feedback are ineligible for problem resolution.

Merchandise Condition:  The vast majority of our merchandise is new from the factory.  Buyers on eBay® are often fooled by terms such as "Like New!" "Like New" is often returned merchandise, reconditioned merchandise, or refurbished merchandise...and is NOT new merchandise.  We never try to trick or fool our customers.  Our merchandise is always described in one of these four ways: 
1. NEW (truly NEW...factory-sealed...never opened...never used...never before sold and carries manufacturer warranty as well as seller's 30-day guarantee) 
2. REFURBISHED (refurbished by manufacturer and carries limited warranty provided by manufacturer as well as seller's 30-day guarantee) 
3. USED (just what it says...Used...carries seller's 30-day guarantee) 
4. AS-IS (just what it says...As-Is...no warranty
