    Description

    <>
    A magazine style periodical called " The Loyal Council Exchange Equipment Number" with Norman Rockwell art on cover which is 90% detached. The pages inside are firmly connected and OH MY what a read.
    * Make Bean Hole Beans
    * Fire by friction
    *Scouting at the Worlds Fair
    *Tent making and much more to read including a lesson in Stalking!!! Um, ok!
    Then it becomes a catalog where you could have ordered  uniforms and other BSA items. The wide hip uniform was a total of .35 in the day. Tents, camping , hiking and so much more. I found this a totally fascinating read!
    There are two paperback style books, each at over 650 pages. Photos, illustrations and articles galore.
    "The Sea Scout Manual" from 1939. 1-2 pages inside cover have autographs inside, I assume from class mates. Cover has wear, like creases but is connected. Inside the 1st couple pages are partially detached but it becomes more solid as you get past these few pages.
    "Handbook for Boy Scouts" is also at 1936 with its last printing...1st was 1911. Its cover is also wrinkled and aged but all pages are securely attached.
    This is an interesting lot. I have other BSA items listed and YES I will combine ship your wins.
    I ship low cost / slow MEDIA unless you ask for an upgrade BEFORE we invoice you
    SORRY there is a blur on the lower R of most of my pics. NOT the item, but some goofy crap with my camera.

    READ COMPLETE SELLER TERMS BEFORE BIDDING>>
    As with all vintage electronics this is offered as is without warranty
    Please carefully view all the photos as they are part of the description and intended to help you determine age, condition and authenticity. Vintage items will not be as new off the shelves, unless that item listing reads as such. Please expect normal signs of use.
    We do not wrap your item until the item is sold to allow the ability to answer questions and take additional pictures or combine wins to save
    you on shipping costs. Weight at time of listing may not be actual for shipping as it has been estimated by eBay, not us.
    ALL packages are insured unless you request it NOT insured. eBay ESTIMATED shipping rates shown do NOT include insurance or handling fee. This must be added to the invoice. Also PA sales tax if applicable. If you pay the original eBay invoice that does not include these 3 items, you will be invoiced for their total.If you desire SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION
    on your item, tell us immediately as the carriers charge for that service and we would place that fee into your invoice. If packages disappear from your doorstep, we recommend this service. Once the carrier posts as delivered, the ability to help has closed.
    US Mail + UPS BOTH raised rates again in
    Jan 2018 and US Mail did away with low cost Parcel Post. We always search for the best rate to your zip code based on PA to your zip, box size and weight. We HATE these shipping rates as much as you do as it hurts how we feed our family when sales are lost over something we cannot control.
    All our listings end at the same hour so we are working as fast as possible to wrap and invoice you. Please understand if we are not able to reply immediately as its likely we had 10-15 other email at the same time. We WILL get back to you!
    PLEASE CHECK YOUR SHIPPING/PAYPAL ADDRESS.
    If it is incorrect, change it before we invoice you. UPS charges us a whopping .50 fee to correct and forward to you. We will bill your PAYPAL accounts for this fee should it apply.
    <>DO NOT Place a bid until you have read & agree to the COMPLETE seller terms<>
    <>Placing a bid is your acceptance of these terms<>
    >>>>>DO NOT PAY from the First automated<<<
    “Thank you” eBay invoice. It will represent Ebay estimated shipping and NOT actual shipping based on the best rate we find.
    Ebay is not a shipping service like US Mail or UPS and has no interest in locating the best ship rate for you
    – instead we will send out a final invoice which will be the
    FINAL INVOICE
    .
    Please pay from this FINAL INVOICE
    from SHERIDAN, as it will have exact shipping per wrapped package weight to your specific zip code. We will send you the lowest price choices that apply for your selection. We will search for the best carrier rates and bill accordingly unless you have made a special request.
    If you do not have your invoice in 36 hours, please check your SPAM folder and or contact us.
    We send a final invoice
    to help prevent over/under payments.  The weight shown in the listing
    is only an estimate that EBAY, not us calculates. We pack well for shipping and that may add weight to the estimate. Package size is also factored into your actual shipping for those oversized parcels but the calculator does not allow for this extra charge the Post Office attaches. Our invoicing takes 24-72 hours so if you do not get an invoice within the first 24 hours do not despair; we have not forgotten anybody yet.
    PAY PAL
    is the only approved payment plan.  Delivery confirmation and $.50-.00 PER BOX/PACKAGE may be added to the shipping. Very oversized boxes may have a max .00 fee, as will International. We ship worldwide.   We use all carriers and levels of delivery.  If parcel select/1
    st
    class is LESS than the priority rate shown on the calculator, we will ship that way
    .
    Before invoicing you, we search for the least costly shipping to your area unless you request a specific mode. Your shipping charges are never one rate to all states. Sellers billing this way are usually making money on your shipping. If you prepay before the final invoice and overpay, we refund over postage charges of .00 + and if your prepayment is not enough to cover postage you will be invoiced for the correct amount before the package is released. **OVERNIGHT FedEx delivery is available-ask for details. ** If your item is a RUSH, please drop us a note and we will place it at the top of the invoice list.
    Payment is expected within THREE (3) days of close of auction.  Please do not contact us on day 3 with future payment arrangements.
    We are willing to work with you but we need to know right away if you need a special arrangement.
    DO NOT wait until after you are invoiced and then ask for special packing or you may be re-invoiced to reflect additional weight/shipping changes to address your request. The FINAL invoice sent you reflect EXACT rate based on how it is packed, box size and weight by the ounces.
    As per Ebay Policy, your item will be insured for your protection regardless of cost, value or size.  If you wish insurance to be waived, let us know and that fee will be deducted from your invoice, lowering your shipping cost.
    PA Residents add 6% tax on item cost
    . The Ebay estimated shipping shown on the listing does NOT have the handling fee or insurance (if applicable) It will be added to your FINAL INVOICE we send you.
    Communication must go thru Ebay messaging and NOT thru our private email. Email sent to our aol.com may go unnoticed for weeks.DO NOT OPEN A CASE without asking for our help 1st.
    Please note our 30 day return policy rules. NO original shipping  charges or return shipping  charges refund will be extended. If you have shipping damage, refer to the package insert in your box and SAVE ALL PACKING +BOX and contact us immediately. We will initiate  all UPS and FedEx insurance claims. US Mail claims may require you to initiate the claim on your end since you hold the merchandise. US Mail will not pay for you to return it to me so I may initiate that claim on your behalf. We do not want you to pay to return it to us so we may do it for you either. We will forward UPS Ins Claim money to you as soon as the shipper accepts the claim  or if you wish it may go directly to you when they resolve it.
    INTERNATIONAL PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
    Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges.  These charges are the buyer's responsibility.  Please check with your Country's Customs Office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding /buying.  International shipping available ANYWHERE and may include up to a max of .00 fee added to the shipping costs. If insurance is not an option for your country, items will be shipped at your risk. So if you want FIRST CLASS where it may apply, there is NO tracking or insurance on the item, therefore it ships at your risk. If it is an option, your package will be insured by the sender, but it must travel at the upgraded service of Priority International. The Ebay calculator DOES NOT accurately calculate shipping charges or options so DO NOT consider that your cost to send. IT WILL NOT BE YOUR FINAL SHIPPING FEE.  Customs fees are not to be considered part of shipping costs and you should not consider customs fees when you enter your feedback.   You must wait for your final invoice to pay.
    PLEASE do not wait until the final day of auction to ask for a shipping quote/questions.  Your request may go unnoticed.  The post office is closed in USA on Sunday and we are not at the computer all day to address last moment concerns and may miss the chance to reply with helpto your query.
