We require that all potential buyers read our 'FAQ and Terms of Sale' section, at the bottom of each listing, prior to purchase, offer or bid placement and inquiries.
As the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing is fast approaching, spaceflight missions grow farther reaching and ever bold, while we begin to experience a renaissance of international interest in spaceflight endeavors and technology. Still, only a few know
about the possibility of collecting such historically significant artifacts, as these from the Space Programs, but that is beginning to change, in light of these events.
Over time, spaceflight artifacts are increasingly difficult to acquire and the value of these rare collectibles is very likely to rise dramatically. If you are a collector that is new to the niche of spaceflight hardware and seeking to diversify your portfolio, this is an excellent way to accomplish that with a unique and sound investment. These are heirlooms that will inspire and be admired by many generations to come.

If any of this type of provenance / paperwork is not shown in the photos and specified as "included" in the listing, then it is not available or included in the sale.
Artifact Flight Status: FLOWN = Spacecraft hardware / components, crew equipment, scientific instruments or other items / materials that have been flown. FLIGHT = Spacecraft flight qualified spares or backup hardware / components and engineering test articles made of the same components as the flight article. These are items that could have flown, but were not flown. Ground Support Equipment (GSE) = Non-flight space program hardware, equipment and scientific Instruments used in direct association with the spacecraft, spacecraft engineers and technicians. These are items that were used and made for ground support that may or may not have been in direct contact with the spacecraft prior to launch.
All items listed here are being sold as collectible artifacts only, and although they may be in perfect working order, we are not able to test them for functionality.
Unpaid Items: Anyone that places the winning bid on an Auction item that we have listed or orders a 'Buy it Now' item that we have listed, without submitting payment within the time frame that eBay allows and without contacting us with a request to extend the payment date or responding to our payment request, please note that we will open an unpaid item case against your eBay account, cancel the sale if not paid and then we will block that person's eBay account from further bidding and purchasing at this eBay store. This is to assist in our efforts to keep a market / auction house open to serious buyers only without interference or hindrance from non-paying eBay members.
Receiving Purchased Artifacts: All artifacts will be shipped within 5 business days of receiving full payment. We can not accommodate in person deliveries or package pick up requests, due to work travel demands.

Shipping Insurance: Packages Shipped via USPS Priority Mail Domestic Service include up to insurance coverage. Packages shipped via USPS Priority Mail International include up to 0 USD insurance coverage. Additional shipping insurance coverage must be requested prior to submitting payment, so that the invoice can be adjusted to reflect the additional insurance coverage cost.

International Customers: All artifacts will ship internationally. If the international shipping cost is not shown in the listing, please send a message requesting the rate. Any international, customs associated duties or fees are additional (not included in this transaction), and they are the buyers responsibility. We can not take special customs form requests.
