ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Pictures are the actual item
you will receive
.
OA5C23
This is a Vintage Chinese Cloth Doll with a shoulder yoke, or bar, with baskets on the ends. This is from the 50s or 60s. It could be an Ada Lum creation, or manufactured by Tripod Mark in Hong Kong. Either way, there is No tag on it. Ada Lum created authentic dolls that were sold through exclusive channels. Tripod mark manufactured many similar dolls in large quantity. Therefore, it is difficult to tell which maker this is from, if either of them, since there is no tag or markings to indicate. It is 13" tall and seems to be Hand Sewn. Pants were pulled up for the pictures to show leg materials. This is a nice doll, in good shape, but see pictures for condition. See spots and markings there. Pictures are part of this description.
Some international shipments may experience delays or stoppages because of Covid. If I offer international shipping but it tells you I cannot ship to your country, it is probably due to pandemic concerns, blocked incoming, and eBay response.
If you buy more than one item, or multiple items, from my store, I can
send you an invoice before you pay that could
adjust shipping to combine costs for a savings. Use the link above or departments on the left to browse my selection just before paying and add items to your cart before requesting an invoice. Add all to your cart and contact me. I
reserve the right to refuse combined shipping if it results in higher shipping costs than shipping separately. Any item(s) that require a box larger than 12" x 12" or one dimension over 16” may increase my shipping costs. Therefore it may be cheaper to ship two smaller boxes than one larger one.
I
research items and
feel my pricing is
fair and
appropriate
and appreciate your bid or purchase, but if I have allowed offers, don’t be shy. This is a way for you to purchase without waiting for auctions to end.
Some “offers” are higher than the starting bid price on auctions.
Bidding or buying this item acknowledges the terms listed below.

requires that items be
paid within 2 days
of the sale. Any delay may result in an
unpaid item claim
being opened
automatically
after that point in time. The only exception is if you are purchasing multiple items from me and must wait for the other item(s) to close. Contact me immediately before or at the close of the first item to arrange combined or reduced shipping for multiple items. I do
NOT
consent to
delayed payment
unless it is due to an error by me. You will receive a notice of sale, then an invoice, then an unpaid item claim will be automatically opened.
RETURNS AND REFUNDS
:
I accept returns for any reason. I want you to be 100% satisfied with your purchase!
I DOCUMENT ALL SHIPMENTS to avoid claims and fraud.
Because I accept your returns,
I do NOT issue “partial refunds” for items, regardless of cost or value.
If it is an item you are not completely satisfied with, there is no reason you would want to keep it, right? All items are to be returned if you are not satisfied, and
I will help you through the process
.
If the item is returned used, altered, or damaged, I will issue only a partial refund (per eBay rules)
once I have received and inspected it
.
If it is returned used, I reserve the option to report the transaction to eBay, which frowns upon that
practice
and enforces with negative marks and suspensions
on buyers that abuse these policies
.
Items must be returned within
30 days (or less if stated in
each
individual listing’
s
policies – check
for changes
on my listing’s
policy
below
price and
shipping info).
It must be
in the same condition as when sent (
if
damaged during shipping,
a claim must be started with the shipper/insurer
),
tags attached if shipped with tags, any product packaging it came in,
and any bonus or freebie that was included with your purchase
. Actual shipping cost will be deducted from the refund, unless it’s
my
mistake.
Your returned item will be checked against documented pictures at time of shipping.
I

SALES TAX:
Don’t forget
that as with all eBay sellers,
sales tax may be added to your final invoice by eBay on behalf of your state.
This is from
government requirements and eBay policies, not seller profit
. This tax is collected by
eBay
and paid to the states that require collection. Taxes may be collected on things you may normally not pay taxes on due to eBay’s practices. If you are annoyed about the collection of sales tax on “
used
” items, please keep in mind that if your state collects sales tax, it may also be collected on used items at thrift shops and antique stores. Please contact eBay or your government officials about this topic.
DESCRIPTIONS AND PICTURES:
Be assured
that I do my best to provide appropriate and relevant information on all my products including condition, flaws, and variations; however, you should
pay close attention to pictures
for anything I may have missed. Pictures are incorporated and are part of this description. Ask questions or ask for pictures of specific concerns you have before bidding or buying. Items are documented in pictures prior to shipping to assure they reach you as represented in my auctions.
LISTING DETAILS:
To clarify things for you
, here are a few general things you must know before purchasing any items from me:
Apparel may have creases, folds, or wrinkles not seen in pictures or from packing and shipping.
Pictures are included as part of this item’s description
. View them carefully.
Unless listed as NEW, this item is pre-owned.
Items MAY come in original packaging. Unless stated in the description above, do not assume it will.
Everyone's perception of condition can vary. Statements made about condition are only my opinion.
I include pictures of item(s) I have on hand unless noted in the listing. They will be pictures of the actual item you will receive.
If I have multiples of the same item, picture may be representative of what I have, but you might not get the one pictured. I will usually disclose this in the listing.
Items are not “graded” and are listed in accordance with eBay guidelines.
Color perception may be different due to monitor or phone variations.
This item will be sold as is. See details about returns above.
My home is free of pests and smoking, with
NO cigarette or pot smoke
or odor.
This is a
home with cats
, although I process items in a room designated as my office to be away from them.
Listed items are
stored in totes and boxes to protect them
while waiting to be sent to you.
If you have allergies to anything, assume your purchases may set them off. For instance, clothing may have exposure to fragrances and soaps you may react to.
NEW & SEALED ITEMS:
Everyone loves NEW stuff!
If I list something as New, NIP, NIB,
NWT, NWOT,
etc., it is an item that may be vintage
or preowned
, but is
still
new, unused, or displayed only, sent in original packaging. If I indicate it is new and SEALED, or in original unopened packaging, I am not selling it as a functional item, it is sold as a non-functioning factory sealed “collector’s” item, regardless of usability. In other words, once the seal is broken, it is now considered “ALTERED” under eBay’s user guidelines.
Terminology: New in Package, New in Box, New With Tags, and New WithOut Tags.
REPAIR & CLEANING:
To protect your purchase
, I do not usually clean or repair items because I am not a professional, but will try to clean some items.
Improper cleaning or repairs can cause damage
and reduce the value of items, or mask an issue you should know about.
I will disclose all issues I see
, but am not responsible for anything that escapes my notice, or any parts that are not authentic or proper. Be aware that there may be dust, dirt, or other substance on or in the item.
ABOUT SHIPPING:
I want you to be happy
, so as default for most items, domestic items will
usually
be sent via US Postal Service
as my default service
WITH Tracking
to assure you get the item
unless you select another carrier
. You may have a choice for certain items, depending on relative cost and risk of shipping service. I like to use
Priority Mail
so it reaches you fast, but may give you options for First Class, Media Mail, UPS, or FedEx when you purchase.
Books and media can be sent via USPS Media Mail rates
(or by cheapest rate available)
, which takes much longer to reach you.
You MUST SELECT media mail
or first class
to get that rate
. I may choose to upgrade shipping from your selection at no additional charge if cost difference is very little. Please do not negotiate or ask to change shipping after purchase. The answer is “No.” I also DO NOT ship to P.O. Boxes unless you see that option in the listing, and charge more for certain mail to Hawaii and Alaska due to additional cost. I charge ONLY what they charge me to ship it.
Quick shipping for you!
Your order
ships within
1 day
from payment!
I usually pack to ship the same day or the day following your order and arrange for pickup the following
business/mail day
. If that is a Sunday or holiday, expect it to be shipped the first business/mail day following that Sunday or holiday.
Domestic sales only
unless otherwise provided in shipping selections
.
I will usually sell or ship internationally or to Canada for certain items. Due to additional costs, customs delays, forms, and
restrictions
by your government
, I may or may not offer an item internationally.
It will be noted in the listing and/or selections for shipping.
Check to confirm this before buying or bidding from outside the US. Some items may be further restricted from Hawaii, Alaska, or Protectorates, due to the need for ground shipping such as perfumes.
If you ask about
combining shipping
, know this: Purchase over 0 of my items and get
FREE or REDUCED SHIPPING
for your whole order!
Before
you check out and pay, you
MUST contact me
about discounted shipping so I can invoice you for everything at one time to combine.
I do not ship to
P.O. Boxes or
alternate addresses
. I ship ONLY to verified street addresses on your PayPal and eBay accounts. Please do not ask for variation on shipping. If it is a gift for someone else, please purchase then reship it. If you have moved, we can cancel this order for you to update your address on eBay.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS (Outside the US + APO/FPO) READ THIS:
BIG NEWS!
I now offer discounted shipping outside the US through the US Postal Service
via
Post Expr
é
s
.
This shipping
includes tracking and
should arrive in 1 to 3 weeks. Insurance is provided by a third party insurer. If this listing has international shipping
available
, the amount you are charged by eBay may be more than
this discounted
international
shipping. If you want this discounted shipping,
INDICATE IN NOTES ON YOUR PAYMENT OR CONTACT ME DIRECTLY
to let me know this shipping method is acceptable to you. If it is cheaper,
you can choose
either 1) I invoice you with the new shipping, 2) I
credit back part of your shipping once delivered, or
3) I
give
you
a higher credit for a future purchase in my store.
If you do not choose, I will provide option 3 as a credit toward a future purchase through my Jerry’s Attic Store.
International buyers must be aware of the following 6 points:
1)
For your benefit, I do NOT use eBay’s international shipping service.
The reasons are because I do not want your items handled and repacked at eBay’s discretion, I do not want you to have to possibly pay more for shipping, I do not want your item to be delayed, and
I do not want you to pay
import duties, taxes, tariffs, and other charges
on items that do not need
these
charged
according to your country’s requirements, which is possible through eBay’s service.
2)
It is illegal for me to mark an item as GIFT
when shipping to you. I will not risk my status and violate USPS rules and regulations, as well as those of YOUR government. I will do my best to find the proper tariff code for your item to minimize the chance of tariffs being charged. If I can find the code, I will let you know if I find there will or will not be a tariff, and about how much it could be (in US Dollars or percentage of value), if that info is available.
3)
There may be delays
in your receipt of the item due to holds and inspections
by your government
when it reaches your country. They may inspect it to be sure it is not something in violation of your country’s restrictions, or any other reason they choose. Shipment may be turned back if they find it violates any restrictions or if you are no longer there, such as APO/FPO after deployment to new assignment. I do my best to check if I can ship to your country, but it is up to you to bid on or buy
only those items that are legal to ship to you
. Keep this in mind when bidding/buying from me. If you need it fast, consider
asking for Express delivery
, which may cost
2x or 3x more
for shipping.
4)
Tracking is provided for all shipments.
Some countries do not provide tracking once it reaches them, but I have a tracking service that will follow items through various shipping services in your country, and I can verify your receipt of the item(s). This means less chance or loss or fraud for eBay.
5)
You may re responsible for
import duties, taxes, tariffs, and other charges as assessed
by your government
.
These are
NOT
part of the price or shipping costs you pay to me. I do not get any of that money. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick up the item (you may be asked to pick it up from their office), but do not confuse them for additional shipping charges when you leave feedback. It is your responsibility to check what charges may be due by your government PRIOR TO BIDDING/BUYING.
6)
I appreciate all international buyers and plan to ship at the earliest possible time to minimize your wait.
Not all my items are available for international buyers.
Please do not bid or buy unless you see
international shipping available as an option
. Some items may not be legal to send to your country such as Italy’s restriction on shoes. Feel free to
CONTACT ME
PRIOR TO BIDDING/BUYING
with questions regarding charges and legal items.
THANK YOU!
