If you are looking for a particular watch, especially a Tag Heuer, please message me as I probably have it or have access to it. Thank you. General Item ConditionAll the items I sell are uncleaned in the original condition I receive them in. I don't like to risk damaging a watch or piece of jewelry by cleaning it wrong or using the wrong cleaning supplies. With that being said, pre-owned or heavily used items may need a good cleaning and will often times clean up very nicely. Please see the pictures and judge for yourself. New items of course don't have this issue. Also note, because of the intense flash on my camera, it can make tarnish look like rust on silver jewelry, and make a brushed finish on gold jewelry or watches look like intense micro scratching. Rest assured, if there is heavy micro scratching it will be noted above. SpecificsHandling time: I will ship within 1 days of getting payment, often times same day if I can.Paying time: Please pay within 48 hours of winning. If payment is not received within 4 days of the auction, and you have not communicated to me, I will assume you are not interested in paying for the item and will go ahead and cancel the transaction on your behalf, as I will assume you are asking me to cancel the transaction by not paying. Shipping is to the 50 US states and territories. If you are an international buyer, you ne8ed to contact me PRIOR to bidding. If you do not contact me prior to bidding to discuss shipping costs and options, you will be subject to whatever shipping costs and service I choose. I will choose the most safe and secure way, which is often very pricey. So please just contact me prior to buying. If the item(s) you purchase totals more than $750, eBay requires that I use signature confirmation on the shipment. I may add signature confirmation on lower valued packages as well, just for peace of mind and more security for both of us. Combine shippingI will always do my best to combine shipping. Usually I can just add two items to the same package, and it can ship for the price of one. Sometimes the additional items add weight, so I will do my best to lower the shipping costs and combine the orders for you. You must wait to receive a combined invoice from me prior to paying. If you pay without receiving a combined invoice you will not get your addition shipping charges back, and I will still ship the items in the same package. Because of the size of some items (or the weight or some other constraint), I cannot offer combine shipping. I usually mention this above in the red item description, but sometimes I forget. Combine shipping is not guaranteed, but I will always do my best to make it less expensive for you. My GuaranteeCustomer satisfaction is my number one priority. If you are not 100% satisfied for whatever reason, please let me know and I will do my best to make the transaction go as smoothly as possible. Feedback is also very important to me because I am a small business on eBay. I will leave you positive feedback, I do feedback in batches every few weeks, so please be patient with me. If for some reason you feel that you cannot leave me + feedback, please email me first so we can resolve the issue as quickly as possible. Returns are accepted, UNLESS otherwise stated above in the item description (red). Returns are not allowed for items that are sold for parts/ repair, or for items sold AS-IS. I will accept the return if there is damage from shipping and will also refund you if your package is lost in transit (Only for US buyers, and only after a carrier investigation). Please contact me before sending anything back! We can do an item exchange if I have more of that item available or a full refund which will include your original shipping (granted something was wrong with the item, if you just changed your mind or something, your shipping cost will not be refunded); this does not include your return shipping expenses though. Shipping items back should be free through eBay. The Jewelry and Watch OutletMy name is Ryan and I reside in Southern California. I've been on eBay since 2007. I've sold a lot of things over the years, but now focus primarily on jewelry, watches, precious metals, diamonds, and coins. I have over 10 years experience with jewelry, watches, and coins. I'm an avid watch collector myself, and have been collecting for over 10 years now. Currently seeking a Rolex DP4K 116600 that was only in production for two years. I recently graduated SDSU in May of 2019 with a degree in business management with a focus in entrepreneurship. Since graduating, I have been assisting my friend at his jewelry store, as well as focusing on my own business as well. I've begun and plan to follow through with the courses offered at GIA (Gemologist Institute of America) to get my Graduate Gemologist diploma. At the time of writing this, I am almost finished with the diamonds portion of the course. I've been able to pay for my education as well as living expenses from the sales I've done here on eBay. I appreciate your business and you taking the time to read through this. If you decide to place a bid/ make a purchase, just know the money is going to be well used and I greatly appreciate it. Thank you!
