The following information should answer most of the questions you may have about purchasing from my "Yard Sale". If you have any questions that haven't been answered clearly here, please send me an email and I'll do my best to answer them.
Item Prices
In keeping with the spirit of the friendly neighborhood yard sale, I will do my best to price my items fairly based on the condition of each item. And, since these are craft supplies, I don't have any emotional attachment to them that would drive the prices higher than either of us would like.
Payment Options
I prefer that all payments be made through PayPal. I will also happily accept money orders and personal check, but you must understand that I will not ship items until these have cleared the bank.
If you wish to pay by check or money order, do NOT place your order through this site. Instead, please send me an email with your full name, mailing address, an the item(s) you wish to purchase. I will then send you an invoice with my mailing address and the total amount for your payment.
By requesting payments through PayPal, I am able to accept international orders.
Shipping & Handling
Please note that I do not charge anything for "handling". There may be items from time to time that will need special packaging, and I may or may not charge a bit extra for that. If so, it will be clearly noted in the item description.
For actual shipping fees, please see my Shipping Rates page.
Finally, all orders will be shipped within 3 days of payment being received through PayPal or after money orders and personal checks have cleared.
Items, etc.
Because I teach beginning patchwork, quilting and sewing, a have a lot of items that were purchased with my classes and students in mind. I have a lot of never-used items and a lot of very gently used items. I am selling these items simply to clear space because I don't need duplicates of everything. I am not trying to get rid of shoddy items. I take great enjoyment of having my tools remain in excellent working condition.
When purchasing items from the Yard Sale, you must understand that someone else may have purchased the same item and that I may not have had time to change the website to reflect that the item is no longer available. If you should happen to order an item that is not available, I will contact you and will also refund your Paypal payment for that item immediately.
Finally, if you're on a hunt for a specific item, let me know. I just may have what you're looking for!
