    Description

    HELLO
    , and
    WELCOME
    to
    kentuckyrebel'srock'n'rollheaven
    , where I've specialized in selling
    MUSIC MEMORABILIA
    for nearly
    TWENTY YEARS
    on
    eBAY
    (and
    MANY MORE YEARS
    in the outside world, long before the advent of online auctions) and am clearly spreading my wings a bit with
    COLLECTIBLES
    such as this!
    THANKS
    , too, for the interest in my music group's last
    CD
    , "
    LISTEN UP... IT'S THE ECHOES
    "--free downloadable samples being
    AVAILABLE ONLINE
    at AllMusic and, of course,
    THE ECHOES OFFICIAL WEBSITE
    --and for the overwhelming response to our follow-up
    CD
    , "
    NOW HEAR THIS
    ," online and in stores now!
    The
    WINNER
    of this "kentuckyrebel"
    AUCTION
    will receive
    ONE
    (1) 100% original,
    RARE
    , and vintage
    TEXACO OUTBOARD MOTOR OIL CAN
    /
    COLLECTIBLE TIN
    --as manufactured by the
    TEXAS COMPANY
    in the
    UNITED STATES
    --made to hold
    ONE
    (1)
    QUART
    of long since used (meaning the can's
    EMPTY
    )
    OUTBOARD MOTOR OIL
    !
    CAN
    stands approximately
    7 1/2'' inches TALL
    , again is
    EMPTY
    (containing
    NO OIL
    ... repeat...
    NO OIL
    ), and
    will
    DISPLAY NICELY
    --although please
    SEE PHOTOS
    for overall
    CONDITION
    --my hating to
    GRADE
    my items since so many sellers seem to abuse both the English language and Oxford dictionary: adding a plethora of plusses to their own definitions of VG, EX, NM, etc. However, as is noted in my
    FEEDBACK FILE
    , I don't sell junk (since I, personally, don't like buying junk on eBay--or anywhere else, for that matter); and feel certain that this auction is
    SURE TO PLEASE
    the vintage
    TIN COLLECTOR
    and / or
    CONNOISSEUR
    (especially at the
    OPENING BID
    )!
    I always
    COMBINE SHIPPING
    on multiple auctions, and prefer to ship items by
    PRIORITY MAIL
    (available is asked for), but will make concessions since
    PARCEL POST
    is so much more inexpensive when able to be used; and may be used by me, in place of
    PRIORITY MAIL
    , in the event of
    MULTIPLE WINS
    since, as indicated, every
    ADDITIONAL AUCTION
    /
    ITEM SHIPS FREE
    for all
    ITEMS PAID FOR IN A SINGLE TRANSACTION
    (meaning
    DON’T PAY  ’TIL ALL OF THE AUCTIONS YOU’RE BIDDING ON HAVE ENDED
    )! I also
    REFUND
    any amount overpaid on
    POSTAGE
    --although given I always add
    INSURANCE
    , and the fact eBay takes 10% of shipping off the top, I tend to lose money on, rather than profit from,
    POSTAL COSTS
    .
    Reluctantly, with the
    USPS
    having continued to
    RAISE THEIR RATES FOR ITEMS LEAVING THE COUNTRY
    --which all but killed my
    OVERSEAS SALES
    --coupled with eBay's insisting I provide
    TRACKING
    and PayPal insisting I add
    INSURANCE
    , I joined the eBay
    GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAM
    in hopes of saving my buyers money, but have since found out that this isn't always so. In cases such as these, I'm more than happy to look into
    OVERSEAS POSTAGE
    myself, when asked, and definitely recommend this for buyers wanting to make
    MULTIPLE PURCHASES
    since eBay's
    GLOBAL SHIPPING
    doesn't tend to
    COMBINE SHIPPING
    , and I can usually save my customers a considerable amount when handling
    SHIPMENT
    for them directly.
    As this is an
    AUCTION
    --and not a
    DEPARTMENT STORE
    --I don't accept
    RETURNS
    ; but since I try to be as thorough as possible in my descriptions, always include
    INSURANCE
    at my own expense, and (as my
    FEEDBACK
    notes) am known for my
    PACKING ABILITIES
    , there should be no foreseeable problems. I'm also known for my "
    LIGHT YEAR
    " / speedy
    SHIPMENT
    upon receiving
    PAYMENT
    ; and always
    NOTIFY
    my buyers when payment is received and their item has
    SHIPPED
    !
    THANK YOU
    for looking; and
