PLEASE DON'T LET THE SHIPPING CALCULATOR SCARE YOU I PROMISE TO KEEP IT AS EXACT AS POSSIBLE. I USUALLY SHIP USPS BUT CAN USE FEDEX OR UPS IF IT'S CHEAPER. AND IF YOU WANT, FOR THESE SERVING ITEMS WE CAN MAYBE EVEN SHIP USING AN ENVELOPE. I'LL LET YOU DECIDE HOW SAFELY YOU WANT THEM DELIVERED. IF YOU WANT FULL PROTECTION WELL SEND THEM IN A USPS PRIORITY BOX AND IF YOU WANT TO SAVE A BIT ON SHIPPING WE CAN USE AN ENVELOPE WITH SOME BUBBLE WRAP. I'LL LET YOU DECIDE WHATS BEST FOR YOU WHEN THE AUCTION ENDS . THANK YOU
YOUR BIDDING ON A NICE VINTAGE SET OF BAKELITE SERVING ITEMS
BAKELITE SERVING FORK & KNIFE SHARPENER
RED HANDLED VINTAGE HEAVY DUTY
THESE ARE USED BUT IN NICE VINTAGE CONDITION
I'VE NEVER LISTED ANY BAKELITE ITEMS. I ACTUALLY PICKED THESE UP AT A SALE AND THE LADY THAT SOLD THEM TO ME SAID THEY HAD BELONGED TO HER MOTHER. SHE DIDN'T KNOW THEIR EXACT AGE SHE JUST SAID THEY WERE PRETTY OLD. THE PICTURE DOES DO THESE JUSTICE . THIS ARE THE ACTUAL ITEMS YOU WILL RECEIVE IF YOU WIN BUT THEY SEEM TO LOOK SHINY IN THE PICTURE AND THEY ARE DULL AND DARKER LOOKING IN PERSON. THERE'S A SPOT OF DISCOLORATION AND EVEN A BIT OF YELLOW LOOKING COOKING OIL OR MAYBE EVEN RUST ON THE FORK CLOSER TO THE HANDLE. I HAVEN'T MANAGED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THE GLARE DOWN ON MY CAMERA SO I CAN'T GET GOOD CLOSE UPS. I'VE BEEN HONEST ENOUGHT TO TELL YOU THEY DON'T LOOK AS GOOD IN PERSON . I JUST HOPE YOU READ ALL THIS. I DON'T SEE ANY MAJOR DAMAGE THE FORK HAS ONE TINY NICK TO THE HANDLE ABOUT THE SIZE OF A PIN NEEDLE HEAD AND THEY HAVE SIGNS OF AGE AND NORMAL USE BUT DON'T LOOK TO BAD FOR OLDER PIECES. THEY STILL HAVE A LOT OF LIFE LEFT. THE FORK IS ABOUT 10 1/4 INCHES LONG AND THE SHARPENER IS ABOUT 12 3/4 INCHES LONG IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AT ALL PLEASE EMAIL ME , I'D BE HAPPY TO TRY AND HELP. I LOOKED THESE UP AND SOMEONE CALLED THE COLOR RED CATALIN. I HAVE NO IDEA THEY JUST LOOK RED TO ME. BUYER TO PAY SHIPPING AND INSURANCE. I DON'T TRUST THE SHIPPING CALCULATORS THEY NEVER SEEM TO BE RIGHT. I WILL TRY MY VERY HARDEST TO KEEP THE SHIPPING EXACT. THE SHIPPING ESTIMATE I HAVE USED IS FOR USPS PRIORITY MAIL IN A BOX BUT IF YOU WANT ME TO I CAN SHIP THESE IN AN ENVELOPE WITH BUBBLES TO SAVE ON SHIPPING COST. JUST LET ME KNOW AT THE AUCTIONS CLOSE AND I'LL GET YOU A DIFFERENT TOTAL. I DON'T LIKE BEING OVER CHARGED FOR SHIPPING AND I'LL TRY MY BEST NOT TO DO IT TO MY CUSTOMERS, I TRY TO KEEP IT AS EXACT AS POSSIBLE. I USUALLY USE USPS PRIORITY MAIL, FEDEX OR UPS GROUND. IF YOU BUY A LOT OF ITEMS AND THE BOX GETS TO BE HEAVY WE CAN TRY FEDEX OR UPS GROUND TO SAVE ON THE SHIPPING COST. IF YOU WIN MULTIPLE ITEMS PLEASE LET ME KNOW AND I'LL BE SURE TO BOX THEM TOGETHER TO KEEP THE SHIPPING COST DOWN. I DON'T GIVE DISCOUNTS I JUST TRY TO KEEP THE COST EXACTLY WHAT IT WOULD COST FOR WEIGHT AND LOCATION. THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK
