Vintage Aqua Craft Scuba Diving/Snorkeling Pry Bar Knife 12" w/ Rubber Lanyard

Description

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING REASONABLE RULES!  I am no longer accepting any offers from any buyers with <10 feedbacks.
DO NOT
make an offer if you can not/will not pay,
DO NOT
renege on your payment,
DO NOT
request a return,
DO NOT
open a case,
DO NOT
submit an offer that includes free shipping
or any change in shipping or terms, and
DO NOT
leave BAD feedback unless you contact me first!
IF YOU DO ANY OF THESE THINGS THEN I WILL BLOCK YOU!
PLEASE DO NOT
request a return,
PLEASE DO NOT
open a case, and
PLEASE DO NOT
leave neutral or negative feedback without the minimal courtesy of contacting me first!  Almost every issue experienced by buyers is caused by simple human error-not intentional misconduct.  This means that any problems can be fixed with just a few communications.  If you violate
ANY
of these terms you might get your return but then I will permanently block you from ever buying from me again.
SO THEN WHY SHOULD YOU BUY FROM ME
?
1st
, I’m reliable.  Check out my feedback.  I've been an eBayer seller since 2001 with a stellar reputation for satisfying buyers with high quality items.  Buyers wouldn't leave me positive feedback if I was selling junk or misleading them.  So you have some peace of mind knowing that other buyers have had positive experiences with me and that
I'm not going anywhere.
2nd
, I give you return privileges on most sales.  That’s because I have confidence in what I sell and I anticipate your total satisfaction.
3rd
, I package my items properly for safe arrival.
4
th
, I recycle!  These four points should give you reassurance that buying from me is much less risky than buying from someone else.  All my items come from my smoke free environment.
YES, I RECYCLE
!  Most of my shipping materials are recycled.  I re-use boxes, envelopes, newsprint, bubble wrap, shopping bags, styro peanuts, and packaging stuffs whenever I can.  This is the reason why I don’t charge extra for costs of shipping materials.  Recycling is necessary to preserve our environment.  It makes no sense to me to throw away perfectly good materials when they can be re-used.  I encourage all my buyers to do the same!  If you are not a seller, then please recycle your materials-or better yet donate your used shipping materials to someone who does or to someone who can re-use them such as your local thrift store-they will appreciate it!
The pictures in this listing show you exactly what it is that I am selling, what you are buying, and what you are going to receive, regardless of whatever the title or buried eBay print might state.  If you find any mistake(s) or contradiction(s) anywhere in this listing then please bring it to my attention BEFORE you buy for clarification or correction.  If it isn’t shown in the pictures, then you’re not getting it-and if it is different from the title then you are getting what’s shown and not what you think you should get.  So please do not buy this item and then complain to me-after you receive the identical item that you see in the pictures-that the item doesn’t match the title.  I list a lot of items and I don’t have a staff of proofreaders and editors.
WHERE DO MY ITEMS COME FROM
?  I find my items at yard sales, flea markets, thrift stores, antique shops, consignments, friends, family, estates, resellers, auctions, other dealers, and sometimes from my own home-really anywhere I am.  I’ve been buying and selling since I was a teenager.  I’ve never had a physical store but sold my items mostly through word-of-mouth or local advertising.  I’ve done this as a hobby for decades but now I sell to customers around the USA.
SAFE SHIPPING
:  I can't personally deliver your item(s) to you, so I have to package them up and deliver them to a carrier for delivery to you.  The heavier and bigger the package-and the further it has to travel-the more it’s going to cost to ship, that is a fact. If you think the shipping cost is high, then please consider that I have to pay what the carrier charges me.  But then compare your costs of having to go to wherever you would have to go to purchase your item(s), (assuming you could even find it) to the cost of having your item(s) delivered safely to your doorstep.  Buying on-line saves you time, money, and provides you with some security.  You save your time by not travelling to stores or places that may (or may not) have what you’re looking for even after you’ve shopped for hours.  You save money by not having to pay for other costs such as fuel, fare, parking, and other related costs such as food or impulse buys while you're out.  But most important, your safety is not jeopardized by driving in hazardous traffic conditions, parking in strange places, or meeting up with strangers and then handing over your cash with no assurances about anything.
International Buyers - Please Note:
Import duties, taxes, and international shipping charges are not included in this item’s price. These charges are not paid to me and are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with the destination country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering (shipping) company or automatically added in your invoice by eBay - do not confuse them for “additional shipping charges”. I cannot change the values or mark purchased items as “gifts”.
My goals are pretty simple: keep my customers happy and coming back.  A picture is worth a thousand words so my description incorporates my pictures of the item(s).  What you see pictured in this listing is what you are buying and what you can expect to receive-nothing different.  However, eBay limits me to 12 pics and I am not a professional photographer nor an expert on every item I sell so please ask questions if you have any concerns about the details, condition, quality, appearance, integrity, model, year, vintage, color, size, fitment, or anything else about the item(s) shown or its/their application.  I try to provide all part or model numbers if available and indicate proper applications if I know.  You may request additional information or pics as long as I don't have to open anything up.  Also keep in mind that feedback is not exactly a fair evaluation.  I have sold many items to buyers who simply left me no feedback or left petty complaints about an item without saying a word to me.  Ebay doesn’t allow sellers to leave negative feedback-even to non-paying or unreasonable buyers-nor remove retaliatory, fraudulent, or spiteful feedback.  So that’s why I wait for you to leave me feedback and then I leave feedback for you.  Look at my replies to negative/neutral feedback and you’ll see what I mean.
CONDITION GUIDE
:
USED/PREOWNED: means “will show signs of prior use or wear” or “some portion(s) may need some repair or restoration” but the item is generally serviceable.
FOR PARTS: means “a core for rebuilding or repair” or “to cannibalize for whatever parts or use you want” but the item should not be considered as in serviceable condition and therefore it is
not returnable
.
NEW-OTHER: means an item showing almost no wear but may be missing some original packaging/materials.  The packaging may have been opened, some literature may be missing, or the item may show minor signs of handling or use such as a customer return or a sales or floor sample.
OPEN BOX: means the original packaging has been opened but the item is in brand new condition and it is complete including all the literature and packaging
NOS: means “New Old Stock”.
MIB: means “Mint in its Original Box”.
BNIB: means “Brand New in its Original Box”.
BNIP: means “Brand New in its Original Package”.
VTG: means “Vintage” an older item but not yet an antique.
MINT: means an item in PERFECT condition-very few items meet this standard.
EXCELLENT: means “much better than the average condition”
NICE: means “in average condition or better”
POOR: means “in much worse than average condition”
HOWEVER, please appreciate that even brand new old items often present some shelf or packaging wear, and signs of handling and aging which can be expected after so many years.
RETURNS: You can return an item if I made a mistake or if YOU made the mistake, and YOU agree to pay for all of the shipping costs (to you and back) plus a 20% fee.  Sorry but I can not accept returns on electronic items, items listed “for parts”, and any item that I sell on consignment.
YOUR PURCHASE CONSTITUTES YOUR COMMITMENT TO PAY FOR THIS ITEM.  IF YOU AREN’T CERTAIN THAT YOU WANT THIS ITEM OR THAT YOU WILL PAY FOR IT THEN PLEASE DON’T BID OR BUY.  YOUR PAYMENT IS REQUIRED WITHIN 2 DAYS.  IF YOUR PAYMENT IS NOT RECEIVED WITHIN 5 DAYS, YOUR PURCHASE WILL BE CANCELLED.
I ALWAYS REPORT EVERY NON-PAYING BUYER TO EBAY WHICH THEN ISSUES A “NON-PAYMENT” STRIKE AGAINST THE BUYER.  THEN I BLOCK EVERY NON-PAYING BUYER FOREVER.  ALMOST ALL SELLERS BLOCK NON-PAYING BUYERS FROM THEIR LISTINGS.  IF YOU PLAY GAMES THEN YOU RISK BEING BOOTED OFF EBAY.
MOST IMPORTANT TERMS OF SALE: I am not a national retailer or some big box store that sells 1,000 items a minute with the clout to force my suppliers to accept returned items.
I only do this as a hobby and for fun.  All I do is find and resell items that someone else has already manufactured and is now available for me to resell in the marketplace.  I am
NOT
a manufacturer and I
DO NOT
re-manufacture, warrant, restore, or fix anything I sell.  All that I can represent to you is that the item(s) you see in the picture(s) is/are the exact same one(s) that you will receive (as long as the carrier or someone else doesn’t damage or steal it before it gets to you).  Any descriptions or representations are intended to be for identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type.  It is the buyer’s responsibility to thoroughly view the pics, read the description, satisfy him/herself as to the condition and value of the item(s), and bid/buy based entirely upon that judgment.
I do not run a delivery service so I do not deliver items to individual buyers but buyers are welcome to come to my location and pick them up.  Title to all purchased items passes to the buyer once I deliver them personally to the buyer or to the delivery company at the shipment point.  I am not an insurance company and I do not insure any buyer’s subjective happiness.  Buyer assumes all risks of loss and responsibility for all costs of shipping and insurance, even if I have secured that shipping or insurance at buyer’s request.  All delivery charges on shipments to buyer shall be paid by buyer and shall be added to the price of the item(s).  I am not a national company.  I do not maintain any presence, assets, nor transact any business outside of New Hampshire and I do not pay any fees of any sort to any other governmental entity outside of New Hampshire.  The remittance of any taxes, fees, duties, or tariffs, if any, due in buyer’s locale are solely the buyer’s responsibility.  Buyer agrees to promptly inspect the item(s) upon receipt and notify me in writing of any nonconformity or defect within the specified return time following buyer’s receipt.  If buyer either a) fails to notify me of any non-conformity per the terms of this agreement, or b) leaves positive feedback expressing satisfaction or c) fails to notify me within the return time limit specified in this listing, then buyer agrees and it is irrevocably presumed that buyer has conclusively accepted the item(s) in “as delivered, as is” condition and that buyer has waived any defect which buyer would have discovered upon any reasonable inspection.  Buyer accepts these disclaimers.  I will not be responsible or liable for any defect that buyer failed to bring to my attention, delays in delivery, or for any damages due to causes beyond my ability to influence including, but not limited to, subjective expectations, illness, inclement weather, disruptions of utilities or internet access, casualties, acts of others, declarations of emergencies, or acts of God.  In the event of any delay, I have the option of extending the delivery date up to an equivalent period of time.  I reserve the right to cancel any order, or to refuse or delay shipment, based upon buyer’s failure to meet the payment terms on any outstanding invoice or buyer’s refusal to agree to any of these terms.  I reserve the right to refuse to transact any business with anyone in the future and I will do so upon any violation of any of these terms.  UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL I EVER BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFIT(S), OR FOR ANY OTHER SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED, WHETHER BASED UPON CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, TORT, WARRANTY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF I HAVE BEEN MADE AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL MY LIABILITY EVER EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID FOR THE SPECIFIC ITEM(S) PURCHASED.  I specifically disclaim any and all product warranties, whether expressed or implied, and/or for fitness and/or for any specific purpose(s).  No matter what eBay says, eBay is not a party to this transaction and does not dictate its terms.  By buying this item buyer explicitly and contractually agrees to be bound to the forestated terms and conditions and buyer also further agrees and represents to me that: 1) buyer has read and agrees to all the forestated terms of purchase; 2) we have the same amount of bargaining power and that neither of us has any advantage or leverage over the other; 3) my liability is absolutely limited to the total amount buyer paid towards the item(s) purchased; 4) the jurisdiction for any dispute arising from buyer’s purchase of any item(s) in this listing will be in New Hampshire; and 5) buyer agrees to pay for all my legal fees if buyer loses in court.  Sorry about this lengthy legal stuff but there seem to be a few unreasonable and miserable buyers out there with crazy lawyers.
Thanks for looking and have a wonderful and safe day.  I am always finding neat and interesting items so please look at my other listings, check back often, and be sure to add me to your saved searches and favorite sellers list in order to receive future listing updates!
