RARE Vintage 1930-1940 GERMAN PULL TOY HORSE 29" High Horse Hair L.A,Calif. p/u
You are bidding on a vintage pull toy horse.  Seems to be made from real horse hair, according to my wife, who has owned her own horse, and currently has a cattle farm.  I am not sure, but it also looks like horse hair to me.  Size approx.: 2.5' x 2.5' x 1'.
Condition is OK considering its age, probably from the 1930's or 1940's.
It is holding together fine, however, there are wear marks, missing ears, some missing hair on the horse's main, and some other imperfections.
Shipping is at the expense/risk of the buyer, therefore, this is being sold “AS-IS”, “WHERE-IS”, with all faults, no warranties, no return, no refund, sale is final.
Please, inspect and ask questions, before bidding.  Thank you.
Pick-up is much preferred, is FREE, and allows the bidder to inspect before bidding/buying.  Otherwise, this will weigh about 35 lbs., when boxed and packed, and be very oversized, therefore, s/h/i within the contiguous USA will run about 9.99*.  International bidders, this is far too large to ship via USPS, please consider MapCargo, a freight forwarder for shipping.  Also, please contact me for a shipping quote before bidding.  Payment due at close of auction.
*A note on shipping expense.  eBay/PayPal charges a final value fee of 15-20% on, not only shipping, but tax, too!?!  Additional expenses: packaging, delivering the item to the shipper, actual shipping cost (FedEx just raised their charges 5%) including insurance, and if media or international, waiting in line at USPS for 15-45 minutes.  Therefore, if the shipping looks a little high, I never see 15-20% of what I ask for.
Normally, for the last 20 years, I would have made this auction with a 14 day return guarantee.  However, eBay has recently begun a "defects, return" requirement.  Which states that only so many returns (whether for a defect or not) will be allowed a seller, per year.  When combined with eBay's rule allowing a buyer to return for no reason at all, this is a recipe for disaster.  Liberal returns, will no longer be considered by sellers.  I will reduce the 14 day guarantee auctions which I post.  Now buyers will not have the return guarantees, and the sellers will be sanctioned, for allowing too many returns.  Therefore, eBay has, once again, promulgated rules which do not help either the buyer or seller, and only make both buyers and sellers look for alternative sites.  Buyers are still covered, if the item materially differs from the description.
I FOLLOW ALL EBAY POLICES AND STRIVE FOR 5-STAR SERVICE EACH AND EVERY TRANSACTION. WHEN YOU GIVE 4 STARS IT MAY SEEM LIKE A GREAT SCORE, BUT, A 4 ON ANY STAR IS 4.0 AND EBAY CONSIDERS THIS A SUB-PAR MARK SINCE THE REQUIREMENT IS 4.40. IF YOU ARE PLEASED WITH THE TRANSACTION PLEASE RESPOND WITH ALL 5 STARS. IF YOU ARE NOT PLEASED LET ME KNOW AND WE WILL WORK TO MAKE IT THAT WAY.
