I found this NWT T shirt and have no idea how to identify it.  The label attached to the t shirt reads: AAA:

Alstyle Apparel and Activewear.  There is another tag says Steve and Barry's.   On the chest is

embroidered Virginia V.    I believe it is some football team.   Here are the pics of the tag.   Thank you

for your help.

Does anyone know what kind of ashtrya this is. Thought it was one that the airplanes used to have but cannot find anything similar. It is heavy believe it is brass. Any help greatly appreciated.

Ok I figured out what it is and what it goes with... But what I can't figure out is the year or decade...

All the ones I could find on eBay had a smooth neck underneath... and mine is ridged... like the ones on all the pictures on the cartridge images.

That's NOT rust in the pictures the lighting made it look rusty and I will  take better pics before I put it up.

It IS dirty, and it has been used hard... for as long as I can remember mom had these... there were 5-6 of these floating around the house... I haven't found most of them (I think we trashed them)... but I did find this one in the back of a bathroom drawer with cartridges...

Hi,

On July 16th my seller shipped my item to me. The problem is the post office hasn't bothered to update the tracking since,and it's been NINE days. It just does not take that long for a package to get from CA to NY.  Another package shipped to me from Washington the day after has already arrived! I contacted the post offce and they were quite rude and condescending and said they didn't know where my package is. Basically they don't care. The seller and I have been communicating pleasantly but she has made it clear she is not responsible for lost packages and since I didn't pay for insurance if it is lost, a refund will not be happening. I explained insurance protects sellers not buyers but I don't know if it matters. I know it's not her fault the post office sucks.

Anyone know why the post office is being so rude and careless? This is the second package of mine they've lost in 6 months and they just won't help me. Here is my tracking:

Can someone please help me decipher the signature on this "old master" drawing? 

Thank you!

I got this poster today from a antique dealer friend of mine today. She'd gotten it from an estate buy out over 10 years ago & it has sat in her store, so she agreed to sell it to me for $100 (she paid $75 way back when).

I bought it because I liked the look & because I thought it might be a antique travel poster - I sold a Swiss Railway poster a few years back that I'd bought for $100 and later sold for $2,000 at the Miami Beach Antique SHow. And because it is so big - 32" x 46"!

I found a stamp at the bottom left side that has  Kunstdruckerei Künstlerbund Karlsruhe around 3 KKK's.

What do I have here? I googled 32" x 46" HEIDELBERG POSTER by Kunstdruckerei Künstlerbund Karlsruhe  byt didn't see anything like it in images and most links were in different languages.

I appreciate any help.

I have some vintage tablecloths to sell but I am clueless about what they are. I will post each one separately. Hope you can help!

The table cloth feels like organza but the napkins are definitely linen except for the sheer decoration. I think this is incredibly beautiful. What is it?

Please help id these candlesticks that have a lateral serated cut on them. They measure 9 1/4" tall, 4 1/2" across the widest part of the base and 1 7/8" across their widest at the top. I have studied the Archer candlestick book and cannot seem to pinpoint the maker. The book shows a set of New Martinsville candle sticks number 21-9 in the amber color and list them at 9" tall but says that they were not offered in a cut design. The book mentions that Fostoria offered a cut design but did not offer them in colors. Any help is appreciated thak you in advance.

These etched hand blown amethyst goblets came out of an old estate. 6 1/2" tall by 3" wide. Inside bottom has a raised bump. Stem is cut out. Pontil on base. Wondering if they're Czech glass and from what era. Thanks so much!

Hi, I've searched the Internet over for the mark on this pottery charger / wall plate.  I figure it is Italian, but other than that I am at a loss as to age. It is made of a yellowish clay, there are pock marks on the white glazed back. It measures 14" across  Any help will be greatly appreciated..thanks!

Can you help me ID this large jardiniere/planter please?  Who made it, what is the flower/pattern, and how old could it be?  The # on the bottom is 307, I believe.  Is it Weller Majolica with a blended glaze??  Thank your for any helpful hints you can provide.

.

Happy Friday all!  Any help with age and ID for this 12" green glass pitcher would be very much appreciated.  Thank you - Mary

I have a few warhammer magazines Im not sure which category to list them as. Any ideas?

Large pressed cake stand, 12 3/4" diameter x 5 1/2" tall, heavy at 4.7 pounds (maybe to heavy for EAPG?) Base has a star, base is almost 1/2" thick, solid stem & slightly inverted - Thanks very much!

I have this neat necklace and can't idenify the maker.  Does anyone know who it is?  Thank you.

Hi there,  I have this necklace that's in need of an ID. I believe these beads are lapis but i'm not 100 percent sure. I see the gold leaf like patterns on most of the beads but i'm unsure if similar stones share the same features.

Any additional information will be Greatly Appreciated and Thanks as Always............

Ok I'm selling off my mother's Estate (step dad died in 07)...

I found this up in the closet along with his 70's ankle boots....

What I can't figure out is if it's still good (what is it supposed to look like to start with)...

And who this company is... (seems to no longer be in business).

He quit wearing those boots in the late 80's and had to go to tennis shoes... and they were expensive boots and he took GREAT care of them  shine and polished them like crazy once a week...

9/10ths of the jar is still here and the color is that 70's burnt brown/orange.

Any answers would be helpful in getting this listed...

Thanks!

Ok on the screen this looked like it would post side by side... but when it posts it goes catty-corner.   sorry.

I'm baaaaaaaaaaack!

I am out of my element when it comes to Vintage stuff.

Here is an Alexis Kirck Choker set & Bracelet that opens then snaps shut on your wrist.  Cuff bracelet?

And I have a REVCO Belt Buckle that I kept because they seemed to match quite well.

I have had these forever it seems, 20+ years at the very least.

Any idea what they are worth and should they be sold together or separately whenever I list them?

TIA, I appreciate ANY and ALL help! 

My carrier had knocked on the office door last week and asked me to fill out a buisiness profile for USPS.  I had been registered on USPS.com, but she said that there were more services for me as a small seller and that we should "make it official" for us to be a "business" for her to be able to count the extra time that she takes with us and to have our address come up as an exception on her time ratings for her 99% residential route.

Since she is wonderful, I filled it it out for her while she was standing there

I missed a phone call a few days after that, but I just got an email from USPS that included this (note the eBay notation):

I may just have to call and find out what that "eBay" actually entails???

I was planning to list some George VI Canada 5 cent coins as a type set lot (KM#33, 39a, 42, 42a), but noticed that my 1940 has a rotated die, about 20 degrees by my estimation, if I am correct in placing the G in the obverse legend at top center.  I've seen one other listed, with much less rotation, #371337306214 and the selling price was no great shakes (and it was in better shape than mine).

If it were you, would you sell it alone, or just lump it in with the set?

WASHINGTON — NASA said Thursday that its Kepler spacecraft has spotted “Earth’s bigger, older cousin”: the first nearly Earth-size planet to be found in the habitable zone of a star similar to our own.

Though NASA says it can’t say for sure whether the planet is rocky like ours or has water and air, it’s the closest match yet found.

“Today, Earth is a little less lonely,” Kepler researcher Jon Jenkins said.

The planet, Kepler-452b, is about 1,400 light years from Earth in the constellation Cygnus. It’s about 60% bigger than Earth, NASA says, and is located in its star’s habitable zone — the region where life-sustaining liquid water is possible on the surface of a planet.

A visitor there would experience gravity about twice that of Earth’s, and planetary scientists say the odds of it having a rocky surface are “better than even.”

While it’s a bit farther from its star than Earth is from the sun, its star is brighter, so the planet gets about the same amount of energy from its star as Earth does from the sun. And that sunlight would be very similar to Earth’s, Jenkins said.

If the assumptions of planetary geologists are correct, he said, Kepler-452b could have a thicker atmosphere than Earth’s, as well as active volcanoes.

It takes 385 days for the planet to orbit its star, very similar to Earth’s 365-day year, NASA said. And because it’s spent so long orbiting in this zone — 6 billion years — it’s had plenty of time to brew life, Jenkins said.

“That’s substantial opportunity for life to arise, should all the necessary ingredients and conditions for life exist on this planet,” he said in a statement.

NASA has found other planets in the habitable zone, but they’ve been either too big or too close to their parent stars to support life.

The agency says this is the first time it has found one that is both the right size to have a rocky surface and in the right orbit around its star to be potentially habitable.

The $600 million Kepler mission launched in 2009 with a goal to survey a portion of the Milky Way for habitable planets.

From a vantage point 64 million miles from Earth, it scans the light from distant stars, looking for almost imperceptible drops in a star’s brightness, suggesting a planet has passed in front of it.

It has discovered more than 1,000 planets. Only a handful have been less than twice the size of Earth and in the habitable zones of the stars they orbit.

http://pix11.com/2015/07/23/nasa-announces-findings-of-earths-bigger-older-cousin/

Constellation Cygnus (The Swan):

Another view of Cygnus:

Named Kepler-452b, the planet is the smallest world discovered orbiting in the habitable zone of a star (Kepler 452).

What makes this world remarkable is that it orbits its star at about the same distance that Earth orbits the sun. What's more, its home star looks to be similar to our sun.

This Earth-like world has a 'substantial opportunity' to host life, Nasa says, adding that if plants were transferred there, they would likely survive.

Cygnus is visible in the early morning hours from March through September. You can find the Swan in the East before dawn beginning in March, which is a sign that summer is on the way. It continues its journey across the morning sky until September when it drops from view in the West.

Cygnus is visible during the evening hours starting in May and continuing on through December. The very best time to see it is during the mid-summer months, when it will be easy to find almost directly overhead on any clear summer night.

1400 light years away.Just a hop,skip and a jump.......if........we can find a wormhole to get us there:

Although they may seem more the stuff of science fiction than science fact, physicists first dreamed up the idea of wormholes. In 1935, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen realized that general relativity allows the existence of �bridges,� originally called Einstein-Rosen bridges but now known as wormholes. These space-time tubes act as shortcuts connecting distant regions of space-time. By journeying through a wormhole, you could travel between the two regions faster than a beam of light would be able to if it moved through normal space-time. As with any mode of faster-than-light travel, wormholes offer the possibility of time travel.

       Until recently, theorists believed that wormholes could exist for only an instant of time, and anyone trying to pass through would run into a singularity. But more recent calculations show that a truly advanced civilization might be able to make wormholes work. By using something physicists call �exotic matter,� which has a negative energy, the civilization could prevent a wormhole from collapsing on itself. The stuff of science fiction, to be sure. But perhaps some day in the far future, it could also turn into science fact.

http://www.pbs.org/wnet/hawking/strange/html/wormhole.html

Of the over 1000 planets we have discovered,Kepler 452-b is the closest thing to Earth yet found.Wouldn't it be amazing,the greatest discovery of all time, if we could actually travel there (by wormhole) and find evidence of an advanced civilization that had to abandon the planet for some reason (ran out of fossil fuels,for example) and so set up life on this planet we call Earth?

We look like Kepler452b-ites?

Not sure what to call this type of stamped (?) metal flowers.  Unsigned...

I found these at an estate sale & grabbed them! But, I can't tell who made them & with the raised letters, heavy riveting & horse shoe belt buckle, you'd think it would be easier.

I did find another aet that had the same belt buckle - they had them listed as being Hubley, but they weren't as ornate as mine.

There are no markings on this set; can anyone tell me who made this Roy Rogers gun belt & holsters?

I appreciate any help

BLM or RLM  Anyone recognize the mark?  I guess this set would be brass?   Thank you for any help

Can someone tell me what this is....it is something collectible?  Thanks!

I have this shirt I want to list from my mom's estate.  Probably c. 80's.  I can't find a maker of this label.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  It say, "U N I" and has yellow stitiching running through it that I can read.  I supposed it's a subsidiary of a larger company.

I buy and sell vintage jewelry. This was a .99 cent auction for a signed Coro rhinestone pin that went for $1.04... (that's okay, sometimes it happens...). I mail the pin, bubble wrap, padded envelope...took care, etc.

Buyer messages me few days later, says he cannot locate the Coro signature...what should we do?  I message back, attach 2 photos from the auction, one showing Close Up of signature, the other a long shot for reference to where signature is located on pin.

Buyer msgs back claiming the bumpy raised metal is NOT the Coro signature etc.  I reply that if buyer is unhappy, to simply send pin back and I will refund.

Next day there's a NEGATIVE Comment left for me and that's that!  I of course called ebay...got all the way up the ladder to Escalation and am informed that since they cannot verify that the Coro signature is authentic, since they weren't here in my house when I shipped it, nor were they there when the pin was rcvd... that the negative feedback gets t stay and would I perhaps like to send the (unfair) Buyer a Feedback Revision Request? 

What makes them think that this buyer is going to take the time to 1) not only read the form but 2) actually take the time to fill it out? Especially since they took the actions they did?

MY FRUSTRATION is that Ebay is not supporting me as a Seller, leaving me no positive course of action to take!  Now I have this Neg FB in the midst of my glowing reviews,,, my 100% rating has already dropped to 99.6%, my seller discounts will diminish though I've worked hard for several yrs to achieve my respected status... it will take one year for this negative to be expunged from my acct and this Buyer...who, as far as i can see, only buys and does not sell on eBay, gets away without a scratch. How is this fair and why does eBay continue to operate in this way?

I was literally in the process of opening an eBay store... (as I've been selling (and buying) for years) ie in the middle of the process of verifying bank acct etc... And now I'm seriously taking a few days to even consider whether I want to keep selling on ebay at all.. in any capacity! 

Feeling so discouraged this morning and am bothered that one person gets to so affect my online presence. DOES ANYONE HAVE A SUGGESTION on what my next course of action might be?  Thanks.

Buyer messaged me saying he had 4 of my items in his shopping cart and asked me if I would do a combine shipping discount. I agreed and told him to do a do a "Request total from seller." He replied saying " I did as you suggested, but get a message that seller does not offer discounted shipping." These are fixed price listings, immediate payment is not required. The items do not yet appear on my ebay page as sold. What should I tell my buyer?

buyer said the plastic around the screen was scratched up he was not happy, and i said the screen has no scratches on my description. then he tells me foot of the rubber boot for the leg is missing. i said when i got the screen, it had it mounted up on desktop wall so i didnt notice of any missing legboot. i asked if he registered for warranty and he said he did. so i offered to help to find replacement rubber so did he by calling acer. acer said they wont accept that as warranty. and that they dont just sell that legbooth and it would cos 50 dollars for entire front panel. buyer asked if i could split half so he can get new front panel which will replace the plastic around the screen and the legbooth.(one piece fixes all).  I said i will contact acer to see if they can cover the warranty. so my conversation with acer was what i mentioned to you above and added asking them  could it be consider as defective part and that should be consider into warranty, he said unless it has been taken apart by plier it shouldnt fall off. The  rep. wanted snid and serial number which i didnt have so i contacted the buyer asking for that and then i got that last night so this morning i went there to check on warranty the warranty is not register into anyones name. so i am now thinking is my buyer lying about contacting acer and he making it like its my fault so he could get the entire front panel new. what do you all think and please give me any suggestions without any attacking comments. should i keep helping him or just report this buyer?  thanks for you assistance.

So I had a buyer use Best offer. After I accepted the offer they immedietly contacted me saying it was their 8 year old step daughter who bought the item and they didn't want it. I cancelled the transaction using the choice the buyer requested/address problem. The transaction finally was cancelled and I got a defect. So I call CS 

Rep #1) The defect was not for that item, it was for an item not received in March. What?? I can't even go back that far. You're going to give me a defect from March? She's puts me on hold then transfers me.

Rep #2) No, this defect was for a seller cancelled transaction for Nordic leggings. Okay, I was the BUYER. I paid, seller refunded and cancelled. She puts me on hold for more than 20 minutes then transfers me.

Rep #3) I will take a look but I'm not saying I can reverse the defect. She reads my message from the buyer out loud (about the step daughter)  and says "this should not have been a defect I am going to remove it".

9 1/2 hours later I still have the defect.

First, they bar a new listing for a bayonet knife. I'm on hold with tech support while they "try to figure out" what happened. Tech comes back with their template condescending "we know how confusing this can be for you", as they do every time you call with an issue that is at their end. Then she says something like: We've discussed this and the reason we won't allow your listing is because it is an accessory to a prohibited item, an "assault weapon", and accessories are prohibited. As Ebay well knows, the term "assault weapon" is simple political puff bandied about by politicians that has no definition or meaning except that it sounds "scary".

The fact is that Ebay has allowed hundreds of listings for the same or similar items that they've suddenly disallowed me to list.

I ask her, then why do you allow dozens of other listings for the same item? And why did you allow me to list a similar item a few minutes ago that used the exact same terminology to which you are now objecting? (About 15 minutes had passed since I listed the first item.)

She says, to paraphrase, sometimes our filters don't catch terms that should red flag a listing. So I point out that there are dozens of nearly identical listings that Ebay has allowed. She basically repeats herself, and somewhere in our exchange, she says that Ebay will go through the prohibited items that their filters have missed, and they will be removed.

This was two days ago. Here are the listings for the same or very nearly the same item that Ebay did not allow me to list: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=bayonet%20fighting%20knife&ssPageName=GSTL

As of today, as I suspected would happen, Ebay has not removed a single one. Everything the tech said was falsehood. So often you talk to Ebay tech support, and you know darn well that they are feeding you a load of bunk, and they know you know they are feeding you a load of bunk, and they do it anyway. "We know how confusing this can be for you ..."

I'm at a loss as to why my listing was banned or why Ebay tech support has become so nonsupportive of sellers. It is insulting at best and should be no small cause for concern to all sellers, no matter what they're selling. It is also bad business.

So, today I get an email from Ebay telling me they have removed another of my items because it is ivory, another prohibited item. Problem is that the item has no ivory in it. Nowhere in that auction they took down today did I state anything about ivory, and what's more, the item doesn't even look like ivory or like it might be ivory.

I'd call tech support again, but I think the issue should be publically posted on this board before I do that. I find it very disconcerting that Ebay is becoming adversary to their own sellers. Wouldn't you agree?

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

hey any one knows how to increase sell . 

thank you 

I just sold one of my items to an international buyer and he asked me to send it to his brother. The address remains the same as his Paypal address. Is there any risk in doing this? 

I have a No Return Policy. My buyer claimed that every item in the lot was damaged or destroyed. This was not true. I stated all of the flaws in the lot and many pieces had no flaws. I offered a $50.00 refund (from the $150.00 total) for the items that he was not happy with. He refused and Escalated the Return. At the same time I asked for Seller Protection to step in. He sent me a message that he would pay the return shipping. I said to him, "Upon receiving everything I will refund your money and original shipping cost" (I wanted to make sure that all the items were in there before issuing the refund). Well, eBay issued the refunds immediately, whch was fine because it looks in tack. My question is, "Why haven't I been issued a refund for my seller's fees?". Am I suposed to call eBay & request a refund? It was not a matter of deception on my part. I feel it was buyer's remorse.

Hello does anyone know what the marking on this teapot says, also what language. Thank you.

I sold a few books and mailed them out the day after I got payment and sent them media mail. Earlier this week the buyer opened a case that they have no gotten it yet. There was no message from them before this. the tracking shows item still in transit. I went to the post office and they have no other info available. However did tell me that media mail is not guaranteed on time and for bigger boxes it can take a really long time. So now I have a case open and tracking sais item in transit. The buyer has not responded back as of yet.

I was buying a jtaged xbox from a seller he ships the order then ebay  remove the item 

Hi everyone. I bought a smartphone ($150 US) that was advertised as "brand new in original retailer packaging", but after paying through Paypal, I saw that many of his buyers complained that he is selling used phones as new.

I requested to cancel my order for this reason, but he had already shipped it by then. Now he is telling me I should refuse the delivery to have it returned to him at no cost to me, and to avoid being charged his 20% restocking fee.

I understand that by refusing the package, I forfeit eBay buyer protection and also won't be able to confirm that he received the return. I

Instead of refusing delivery, I was thinking of accepting the package, opening it and looking for evidence of the phone not truly being new, and then requesting a return based on Item Not As Described. I thought about returning the package unopened (return shipping with delivery confirmation paid by me), but then I wouldn't have a valid reason to return and might be charged 20% restocking fee. I couldn't say I'm returning because I have a suspicion that Item Is Not As Described, right? 

The seller's words:

The refusal of the package is just to insure that you do not open the package and a restocking fee is not applied. If you would like to pay for the shipping please feel free to do so however we do recommended the refusal of the package as the best return method in this case.

Any advice would be welcome. Thanks!!

How do I escalate a case from my end the seller?

Can't find it in bulk edit OR on site preferences.

I have no clue what it is. It could be art or an advertising piece. Best I can tell you is that it isnt connected to the background piece. What is it? What is its date? Is it valueable?

http://announcements.ebay.com/2015/07/new-on-time-shipping-question-added-to-buyer-feedback/ Notice...says GLOBAL ....yeah...ok...worm can opened...cya!

I feel so dumb. The buyer never got my invoice with combined shipping and I can't find anywhere to resend.

Is there a way to make TurboLister remember the size and position of its popup windows?  I'm specifically interested in the Insert Picture window and the Export Items windows.

The Insert Picture window, especially, is much more useful when it is resized to show a larger selection of photos.  Its default on my machine is to show the photos from the selected folder in a thin area, which requires scrolling up and down, two or three photos at a time.  Each time I use it, I resize the window.  It reverts to its smaller default the next time I try to insert a photo into a listing.

I was just wondering if there was a trick or function I hadn't heard of over the years.  Thanks!
