Combined S/H Discounts
We are happy to save you money by combining your purchases of different products into a

must
strictly adhere to the following:
All purchases are within a 5 day period,
and
Paid from a
single invoice
sent by us to you,
and
Paid in full with a
single PayPal payment
.
No exceptions.
Therefore, if you are making multiple purchases, do
not
checkout and do
not
pay for anything until you are finished buying. Then request a "combined invoice with discounted S/H" for all of your purchased items.
Email may take several business days to be answered -- Please be patient and plan accordingly.
For an immediate response, just call us.
NOS Locators' Commitment
NOS Locators
has been serving the Classic Car community for over 40 years. We are respected and trusted throughout the world. We are located in a commercial building, fully staffed M-F, 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM Eastern Time. Some staff members
may
stay later or come in at other times, so if you need to call us, please try, but after 6:00 PM and on weekends, it is a "catch as catch can" situation.
Our goal is to earn a 5-star rating in
each category
for
each transaction
, and everybody here works
very
hard toward deserving this. If you are satisfied with your products and this transaction, we would really appreciate all 5-star ratings if you can honestly justify this. This will allow us to continue to serve you and the rest of the eBay community in the future and keep our prices low. And if we should screw up, please give us the "benefit of the doubt" and a chance to fix it or make it up to you either directly or in some other way. There are penalties for not maintaining high ratings which eBay restricts us from publicly disclosing; however, it should be obvious that increased selling costs ultimately result in increased buyer's costs.
As you can see from the comments from our more than 35,000 eBay transactions, we are an honest and honorable professional organization. If there is
anything
you object to regarding our policies, prices, products, S/H rates or time frames, please phone or email us.
If
you are
not
100% agreeable with our policies and prices, please
DO NOT BUY FROM US
. But if you
do
buy from us, we expect you to likewise be honorable and judge us on how well we fulfill our stated policies.
The two biggest complaints you will find in other sellers' feedback (other than outright fraud), are inflated S/H Rates and Lengthy Shipping Times.
Our S/H rates are carefully calculated to be fair and reasonable.
If
you object to our
S/H charges
on any product,
DO NOT BUY FROM US
; but if you do buy from us, and we
do not charge you more than we stated, then we deserve 5 stars in the "Shipping and handling charges" DSR.
This is especially true if you buy multiple products but
do NOT
request a "combined invoice with discounted S/H" since each item is priced for
individual
shipment.
If
you object to our
Shipping Times
and think getting your order out within a day or two (or maybe another day or so for foreign orders with customs declarations), is too long,
DO NOT BUY FROM US
; but if you do buy from us, and we
get your order out within this time frame, then we deserve 5 stars in the "Shipping Time" DSR,
regardless of how long the carrier takes to deliver the parcel to you.
It's
"
Shipping Time
"
,
NOT
"
Delivery Time
"
. Be aware that you can always
ring us
and speak to a "real" person if you need something shipped out quicker.
Lastly
, but
most importantly
, by monitoring our feedback continually, we can determine if a buyer leaves us
unjustified low grades.
If this is the case,
we will block that buyer from future purchases.
There are people in cyberspace who have unrealistic expectations or are not very honorable. If you are one of them and do us an injustice,
you won't get a second chance.
Regarding
Buyer Feedback
, we've arranged with a private company to automatically generate buyer feedback and spend this saved time on the "operations" end of an eBay transaction. The buyer's feedback is automatically left as soon as the buyer leaves positive feedback for us.
If after giving us feedback, you do not receive your feedback after seven days, please contact us. Internet glitches sometimes cause this third party service not to work 100% of the time.
Be sure to include the
listing number
on
ALL
correspondence and checks.
