in the Low Side District of New York, reporter Jimmy Palmer will soon
become involved in a game of cat and mouse with an illusive and deadly
character: Jack the Ripper. Along Palmer's dark journey he will foster a
friendship with a young singer, Abigail, the "Irish Nightingale," and
meet numerous other colorful characters. Beginning with the search of
witnesses to the crimes, Palmer's snooping will soon lead him to

Thank you for shopping at
Georgie's_Treasures. Please feel free to email us regarding any
questions you may have before you order or offer on our items. Asking
first saves you from disappointments. We try really hard to help.
Winter Warning:
If
you live in an area where it goes below freezing, and you are ordering
media items such as VHS, Cassettes, 8 tracks, DVDs and CDs; please don't
leave these out in your mailbox to freeze. The tapes especially become
harder to play and often will jamb if frozen. It is best not to leave
them in the cold, but if you must, then allow them 2 days to defrost
completely at room tempreture (60 degrees plus F). Combining Shipping Discounts:
On most of our items, we do give a
discount.
Many of our items have discounts for multiple purchases of the same
thing. Very, very few won't be elligible for shipping
discounts. These are always shown in the listing. Mostly, however,we
give discounts as follows:
2 to 4 items - 17% off the S&H of
all items.
5 to 9 items - 25% off the S&H of all items.
10 and more -
33% off the S&H of all items.USA Shipping:
All the shipping
charges shown are by media mail or parcel post for USA. These are what
we have figured the S&H below. We can do faster shipping, but it is
generally a lot more expensive. Please feel free to email us for the
rates for faster shipping before you order or buy. Remember if you
are getting a media item, media mail across the USA is very slow often 3
weeks. We are at the beach end of California, and often our buyers are
at the Atlantic side of the country. Parcel Post (or USP Ground) can
take up to 12 business days.
When do we
ship?
We generally ship Monday through
Friday, except for Postal Holidays within 3 business days of receipt of
your payment. We try and do next business day, but some items take more
time.
Making
an Offer?
Georgie's_Treasures
has several hundred items you can make a "best offer". Unfortunately
the clever boys are trying to cheat by using terms and sentences that
can be ambivalent. If you wish to "free shipping"; you must use "Seller
to give FREE SHIPPING" in the message line of your Best
Offer. Anything else is to be considered as not accurate and not
binding on
seller to give free shipping. We want to be upfront and fair.Shipping &
Handling.
We charge shipping and handling on all
items.
RETURN SHIPPING:
On
the second page of this and all listings, has a very thin and
small writing about returns. We want to be clear, it says; "The buyer is responsible for return shipping costs." I'll bet 90% of what you see in is the same, and you've probably never read it. We want to be upfront. Thank you.No Bubble Wrap!
I
went up to the local land fill and saw tons of bubble wrap being
buried. I asked the guy about this. Not only does is it a problem for
landfills, it is believed to be part of the global warming problem. You
may not agree there is a problem, and we don't know the major cause;
but we are not going to be using items like bubble wrap in our shipping,
except those new, sealed products that may have it inside already. We
think our system gets items through ok. Hope you agree to be green.International Shipping:
We ship overseas by United State Post Office. By buying here
you agree to use the custom's form as your tracker. It shows up at
usps.com generally the day after we ship. Most modern countries allow
the customs form to show up on their website too. Please check with
your postal service
before you order. If you wish secured mail, the additional charge is
$11.97. Here is the really rough part: We no longer ship to Norway
without the secured charge. Seems that either they have the most
incompetent postal service or there is a ring of thieves trying to steal
on . We don't see trying to protect their sellers.
Customs
Forms:
In the USA there
are 2 customs forms, one for 4 pounds and under and one for the larger
items. Both have a number which can be tracked by modern international
countries' post offices once the item crosses into your country.All
packages require a form. The buyer of this item agrees to allow custom's
forms to
be used as tracking information at the prices shown in this listing.
Should the buyer wish "regestered mail", the additional charge is
$11.97.
Know Your
Custom's Regulations:
There
are over 200 countries in the world today. Each has their own set of
regulations for what a citizen can import. There is no way
Georgie's_Treasures can know all those rules, but you (the citizen)
should know the rules of your country. Should the product be stopped by
customs or returned by customs, it is the buyer's loss for both price
and s&h.
BEST MATCH" IS NOT
BEST FOR BUYERS.
If you are looking for our other items to
get the shipping discount. We have been looking at the Best Match, and
it appears not very good for buyers. Basically is manipulating
what comes up first based on how they like
the seller and how
much time is left on the sale. I spoke to a po.werseller agent, and
he said no one knows how that best match works. Often the front page of
Best Match are not very good buys. We recently listed a NEW DVD. It
was the lowest in terms of price and shipping. When we put up "Best
Match" our DVD was 12th down. The top guy was charging about double
total than we do, but he gets nearly 10,000 responses a month. Perhaps
if you use best match to find our items for shipping discounts, you are
getting favorites of instead. But when we changed to lowest price
and shipping, ours was first. To get the best price and discount
shipping:
1. Go To "Buy"
2. Suggest something you might wish to
buy in the search box and enter.
3. At the very top of the list of
items find and click on "Customize View".
4. On The Very Right Side
click on "Advanced Options".
5. There are two drop down boxes. Click
on
the little triangle of each box to find the way you want to always see
listings displayed. Me, I choose, "Lowest Price" for both boxes. I like
to save money.
6. Once you have your choice of way, click on the
bottom button "Apply Changes".
Then every time your search , you
get the best price and shipping. I'm confident you will find many of
our items to get that shipping discount.
I save money with this, and
hope you do too.
PLEASE DON'T CONSIDER VERY GOOD AS A GIFT
ITEM.
Since started the categories for used
condition, we've had several people think that "Very Good" is a gift
item. It really isn't, unless you are talking
about rare
collectibles where getting anything at all is very good. If you are
thinking about a gift, then stay to "Brand New" or "Like New"
and read the description carefully.
Contact us:
We are in California. We generally open about 10
a.m., and work through about 7 p.m., except Sundays when we close about
2:30 p.m.. While we are open, we often won't be on line all the time,
as we must buy stuff and ship stuff. We try to reply to
all questions before we close for the night. If you've sent us an
email before our general closing time, and we don't reply, you might
wish to resend. We answer all emails we get.
Please read all
the and paypal rules before offerding:
From time to
time, we encounter a buyer who has not read the rules. and Paypal
had to make some choices about who is responsible and how people should
proceed if there are problems. We have read the rules, and understand
the choices they had to make. We will follow these rules and expect
others to also follow them. While we hate to reply to "that's not fair"
letters, the decision not to read the
rules is
really what is not fair, isn't it?
What
is Georgie's_Treasures?
We are primarily a liquidator. Many of
our selections, while new, are in shop worn boxes or cases. We get a
lot of our
product from stores changing their directions or discontinuing items.
Generally these have been picked at a bit, but the product is still new,
only the package sucks. We sell the product, not boxes, cases nor
blister
packs. If you are a collector, more interested in a box than what's
inside, please write me first before offerding. Yes, at real stores
people pass items that are perfectly good, but boxes are bad or the
jewel case cracked or punched. They want to spend many times what we
charge to get new looking items that they are going to
unwrap.
Now
you can save at their foolishness. Also nearly all of our DVDs, CD
&
cassette boxes are punched. This does not affect the tape or CD or DVD,
just notices
it was a liquidation item. As I said, we don't sell cases, boxes nor
blister
packs.
UPC OR ISBN
We also list items by the instant look-up on . Sometimes the
UPCs and ISBNs don't match up with the instant item, but the music is
the same. Now sure why record and book and movie companies put out the
same music but different numbers. We get a lot of promo items.
Should you offer now or wait to the end of the sale?
Several times a month, we get letters from
buyers asking if we might have another copy of an item. They wanted
it, but heard it was best to wait until the last minute to offer. They
did not get to the sale site at the right time and missed it.
Someone else got the product at or less than they would have paid. Our
thought is, put up your best offer when you decide you'd like to have the
item. If you are at your computer, at the last minute; you can still be
ready, if someone out offers you. If no one else offers, you won the item,
whether or not you are at your computer at that last minute. Again
if you have questions, please write me before you offer or buy. Thanks:
Georgie
