Bidding: You must be registered to place a bid on an item.

We cannot retract or remove a bid. We will not release your information to anyone without your permission.  You are bidding on the described item, not the photo. Please let us know if you see an error in our listings. Descriptions are believed to be accurate but not guaranteed. All items are sold “AS IS, WHERE IS, with NO WARRANTY expressed or implied”.  Keep in mind that these items are used and may have scratches, dents, dings, holes, funky odors, etc. Any mention of an item’s condition is not an official grading of the item’s condition.
