Bidding: It is extremely important that you provide a valid e-mail address. YOU MUST PROVIDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS IN YOUR POST FOR YOUR BID TO BE VALID. All bidding will be made in American dollars; however bidding is open to everyone and we can ship internationally. You must be 18 or older to bid.

Bid Increments: Bids must be made in increments of $1.00. If you raise a bid by any amount other than a $1.00 increment, the previous bid prevails until the bidding has raised the item price by a $1.00 increment. Example: The bid is at $20. You may bid $21 or $22 or $23, and so on.

IMPORTANT BIDDING RULE: The last officially accepted bids must be placed no later than 1:00:00 PM PDT (that will be 4:00:00 PM EDT). For example, a bid placed at 1:00:45 PM PDT will not be valid.
