Normally, volume discounts apply to multiple items from the same listings but mention my volume discount rates when ordering a number of items from different listings, such as 3 different items from 3 separate listings, and I will honor that volume discount in the form of a partial refund as eBay is not set up for that. If I am having a sale, you will get whichever gives you the highest discount. Buy 2 for 5%, 3 for 10%, 4 for 15%, and 5 for 20%. Pricing: I carefully research non-auction plus shipping sold prices on all items using a search tool that goes back 10 years, with the goal of pricing my items fairly. Was $6'9.95 Is Now $34.95 For one !!!!! Happy Collecting !!!!! Condition: This pitcher is in fantastic shape for being about 200 years old with no chips, cracks, crazing or discoloration!!!! The glaze is not crazed or discolored. I date this from the early 1800s, one of the oldest pieces I have ever listed. Look at the photo showing translucency. See Photos. Take a look at the entire fantastic collection I am listing!!! There may always be small manufacturer's defects or microscopic blemishes or flaws consistent with age and use which is to be expected in antique and vintage items. Rest assured that any major issues will always be both documented and photographed to the best of my ability. Be sure and check the photos as they are an integral part of the description and do a much better job of showing condition issues than what I can explain through the use of the written word. Use the magnification tool and feel free to ask questions. Photographs are a vital part of the description: If any issue....a scratch, chip, blemish, smudge, crazing, soiling, scuff, crack, hole, bubble, bump, roughness, manufacturer's flaw.....anything....shows up in the photos, even if it is not spelled out in my written condition section, it is part of the description and cannot be used for a 'not as described complaint'. I am an old lady with fading eyesight, and I do sometimes miss things that the photos catch, or maybe there are other defects that I feel are more important to point out in the written word. Ebay only gives us so much space for our condition description, so we must prioritize. If you see something in the photos or in the description that bothers you, by all means, point it out and ask me about it before you commit to purchase it. Measurements: 5 3/8" long, 4 3/8" wide, 5" high Packaging: Note that I turn over the ends of the shipping tape on bubble wrap, so the ends are easy to grab and pull off without damaging the bubble wrap. 2204-2212 (11/24) - 8643 - Bx 289 - weight 9 oz. - estimated shipping weight 1 lb. 5 oz. Disclaimer: Photographs showing the item next to a ruler or tape measure are there to show scale only and usually will not show exact measurements due to the fact that there is usually a perspective issue. Please always go by my stated measurements rather than guessing at the exact sized based on the photos. Note: Because of the way computers and cell phones are set to interpret colors that show on their monitors, and because of people's perceptions of color descriptions, the colors you see on your screen may not be exactly the colors you willget but might appear a bit darker or lighter or a shade or two different in tinge. I will always do my best to show colors as close to reality as I can get them but keep that in mind when you make your orders, as, although I accept returns, I WILLNOT accept a small difference in color shades as a reason for a 'not as described' claim when asking for a return.Of course, if I say that something is black and it turns out to be red, then obviously the fault is mine and the 'not as described' claim will be accepted. Shipping window changes: I am a 72-year-old lady who lives quite a way out in the country. I also have chronic pain syndrome. I choose a longer up to 5 business day shipping window so that I can choose the best weatherdays and best health days to make the trip into town where I run as many errands as I can including mailing your packages. It Is Important that if you do need your item in a hurry for a birthday or special occasion, that you let me know and I will be happy to do my best for you.
