Guidelines On Prepaid Post Satchels:

* ALMOST all of the items I currently have under auctions/classifieds weights are below 500grams. Therefore, the fixed cost of each parcel is $4.30. (If it is a big item, and is bulky)

* It will not matter how many items you purchase from me, if you want to order an addition item, and still only
pay $4.30 p&h, you may do so, in one order/per satchel, as long as the items total up to 500g.

*In other circumstances, if you order more items - which then of which exceeds 500grams, it will them be
counted at OVER 500grams, which will then have a postage cost of $8.10.

* I use MOSTLY prepaid satchels, but I will provide FREE postage for much smaller packages, i.e. Cards, Jewellery, or
where specified (see item, of interest).

Fragile Items:

* All fragile items will be packaged extra in bubble wrap if necessary, to prevent damage while being handled.
There are no extra costs involved with this. (unless specified, or requested by me) Applicable Fixed postal cost will be all that is necessary. Items such as CDs, DVDs, games etc...Will require bubble wrap, so you can be certain that is what I will be using it to prevent damage. Usually products posted in Prepaid Post Satchels will contain bubble wrap.

Postage & Handling - Non-Profitable:

* No profit is made by me, as the seller, whatsoever, on the money I receive for Postage & Handling, as this is only used to transfer items of my stock to the buyer (i.e. you).

Damages During Delivery:

* I will not take any responsibilities for any damages that may have been caused to your parcel/item once it has left my hands, and therefore under the care of Australian Post.
