AUCTIONEER'S NOTE: Many objects in this auction are  very fragile! I stand behind my descriptions! But the moment you walk out of our pick up we cannot guarantee the condition!  By the time it rolls around your vehicle for 2 days and yet another auction pick-up accross town, it is unpacked hastily, bulbs roll off to nether regions, the grandkids excitedly explore the fragile pieces and suddenly it's not the way Kevin described it. No returns, no refunds.
