I am selling an Aurora Afrika limited edition piston filling fountain pen. One of the Aurora series of limited production auroloid pens, this beautiful Mint pen is boxed with papers, and has a Medium 18kt gold nib. Afrika celebrates the great and mysterious continent, with all its beauty and fascination. Rich honey, dark amber and black swirls typify the Auroloid material used. The central cap band, decorated with tribal design, is made in dark golden metal, and at the cap\'s top a black onyx stone, cabochon cut, and mounted in a small golden ring. Please note that the exact swirl pattern in the pen shipped will differ from that in the photos. Also, the outer box sleeve will show some scuffing and minor discoloration from shelf wear.International buyers, please note that the listed item price and shipping cost do not include import duties, taxes, and related charges. The buyer is responsible for these charges. Before offerding/buying, please check with your local customs or other responsible office for information on these charges.
We ship internationally by DHL Express, and domestically by TNT Express, to your physical location, and not to any PO Boxes or like delivery points. We do not use Australia Post for international deliveries, because we are concerned to minimize the risk of loss.If the buyer\'s and/or PayPal address information is, in our opinion, ambiguous or incomplete, we will not ship until the buyer has provided us complete address information. In this way we can minimize risk of non-delivery. If this additional information is not provided within 2 days of purchase, we will cancel the transaction, and reimburse any paid monies. For apartment or unit dwellers, we will require the buyer\'s address record to clearly state the apartment or unit number, separately from the street number, for example, \"100 John Street, Apartment 222\" or \"100 John Street, Unit 222\". Descriptions such as \"222-100 John Street\", or \"100/222 John Street\", or similar, are considered ambiguous and shipping will not occur, in accordance with the above.Thank you for your cooperation in making my service efficient and relatively free of risk.From time to time, we may change our selection of courier for delivery of your item in order to ensure a cost-effective service, and having regard to your particular location, those couriers who have better coverage in your area, any local regulatory controls, and other factors.
Combined Shipping Discount
I offer a combined shipping discount for multiple listeditems, but only in circumstances whereby the multiple items are being purchasedon one and same invoice/transaction showing the reduced/adjusted combinedshipping rate. This requires the buyer to request a total for multiplepurchases prior to payment, or to defer payment after the multiple itempurchase commitments are made, prior to payment, so that I can make thenecessary adjustment to the invoice and submit it to the buyer for payment.
If you do not know how to request a total, or are unableto defer payment when the purchase commitment is made, please refer to andits online instructions.
I do not offer combined shipping discounts for itemspurchased separately, and/or outside the procedure outlined above.
The reason for this policy relates to the fact that as a matter of course does not automatically retrospectively refund sellerfees/commission expenses for retrospective shipping expense adjustments onseparately purchased/paid-for items, leaving the seller with the administrativeburden and related expense of claiming rebates at a later date via a cumbersomeprocedure.
Shipping and other delays may occur
While we will make every endeavour to dispatchthis item in a timely fashion, delays with couriers/postal agencies, as well asimport authorities (eg. Customs) in the buyer’s country, can occur and thesedelays can be up to weeks, if not months (as may be experienced with recent world-wideevents). In buying this item, the Buyer is acknowledging that such delays mayoccur, and are out of the Seller’s control, and the Seller is not responsible forthem.
