There is nothing more relaxing than crafting unique jewelry pieces. Mother nature with it's spectacular sunsets, woodland forests or sparkling brooks give me the inspiration to create. I also sell regular jewelry when I come across some items with great offers, I usually buy them up and offer them to my customers here on eBid. Visit my jewelry store for some great ideas.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
- Q. What countries do you ship to?
- A. Deutschland - Australia - Denmark - United Kingdom - New Zealand - Canada - United States - España - Norge - France - Nederland - Sverige - Ireland - Portugal
- Q. What payment methods do you accept?
- A. United States Postal Service Money Order, Cashier's Check, Google Checkout and cash. Paypal payment is discouraged but available.
- Q. How much time do I have to pay?
- A. You have up to 7 days to make an online payment and up to 14 days if you are sending payment through the mail.
- Q. How do my discounts work?
- A. Purchases from $30.00 and over (excluding shipping) will receive a 10% discount, where applicable. Purchases must be made within a 7 day period and paid on one (1) invoice.
- Q. Why do you discourage paypal and encourage Google Checkout?
- A. Paypal is forced on buyers on eBay (they own the company) so they believe it to be the safest way to make online payments. In fact, this is not the safest payment method as paypal are not governed by any official bodies. They have total control of their business including charging high fees for merchants and withholding payments for up to 21 days if they feel necessary plus they have and will access your accounts if they feel it necessary for further monetary gain.
Google Checkout is scrutinized by government officials to ensure fair trading and securer transactions. The fees charged to merchants are extremely reasonable and fairer plus they are not allowed access to your accounts for any monetary reasons. Many merchants are closing their paypal accounts and opening Google checkout accounts to give their customers a much smoother, safer and more pleasant transaction experience.
- You can sign up for a Google account here
- Q. I don't know you so I'm a bit wary of sending you payment through the mail. What assurances do I have that you'll receive my payment and honor it?
- A. I cannot guarantee that I'll receive your payment in the mail. We have to trust the postal service to do it's job. It is always best to add Delivery Confirmation, when sending payments this way. It is highly recommended that you use Signature Confirmation for any payments over $100.00 or whatever you are comfortable with. You will have a recorded transaction and will be able to check online when I have received payment. You will, of course, be notified by me when I do receive your payment. I have been selling online for over 5 years and received many payments in the mail and so far, knock on wood, I have not had any problems.
- Q. Do you also buy on eBid?
- A. I most certainly do!
I hope we can resolve any issues before leaving any feedback.
By purchasing my items, you are agreeing to my terms and conditions of sale.
