    If you like the item, and are not immediately purchasing or making an offer/bid -- consider putting it on your "
    watch"
    list as the search engines don't always bring up the items in the order you first saw them when you search later -- or "like" my store -- it is easy to "unwatch or "unlike" but  this will save this item's listing for you and will remind you when listing is about to expire
    Look at the pictures they are part of the description, and, write me with any questions prior to bidding.
    All photos are mine, if it is a stock photo, it is marked "stock photo."
    Colors are described as accurately as possible --
    please remember not all monitors show colors the same
    , so what color I see on my monitor may not be the same as yours. One person's "mauve" may be another person's "purple."  :)
    WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get)
    SHIPPING: AlleyJcat is a small 2-family member company and we can’t always offer free shipping, however, with the increasing rates,
    we find anything over 3 pounds seems to be cheaper with FedEx and that is an option we list.
    We are located in COLORADO (ZONE 5 USPS) so within a few hundred miles of the middle of the continental United States, that helps those on the coasts and the south with lower zone rates.
    WE NEVER charge a HANDLING FEE!
    WE PAY INSURANCE.
    If you choose FED EX, you are getting our FED EX discount, you don't see that amount, you only see your cost AFTER the discount is applied.
