    the fine print
    the images are the majority of the listing description, so take a look at them closely.
    shipping costs have really increased—this is calculated into the buy-it-now price.
    i am not able to sell individual items from items i have listed as a group. i just don't have the stamina to create new listings for those. i apologize for that. i haven't initially individually listed items because i don't have enough listing slots to so.
    trying to downsize some, though extremely melancholically.
    shipping time: i otherwise work more than full time and my health isn't great, so kindly excuse the longer handling time. if i am able to ship sooner, i absolutely will do that
    . i appreciate you taking the time to view my listing.
