Description

The listing, "train" pocket watch (un-used) from 1973. has ended.

Bought this for my fiancee/future husband back in 1973 for Christmas and he just shoved it in the safe and never used it. When we divorced, I asked him if he wanted it and he said "nahhhhh." NEVER USED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry, no returns of the item no returns of credits, i.e.: no buyer's remorse. This includes parents who aren't aware (which they should be of what their children are doing) that their child bid and win and the parents don't want. I am not your child's "keeper", sorry--this has happened too often as of late.
SHIPPING: $4.75 and 85 cents for tracking.
I want to get the credits so that I may get more items for our church Christmas Bazaar craft group with the credits it yields.
Thank you for considering, those bidding and to the winner!

Is this mechanical (wind-up) or quartz (battery)

Jul 11th, 2012 at 5:25:00 PM PDT by

was quartz available back then, no I believe battery!

And how about a GIN price ???

Jul 11th, 2012 at 5:26:11 PM PDT by

I don't know how GIN operates. Please advise. Thanks.

Before there is a bid on your auction, you can click the edit button, then click the "Advanced options" button, then you can set a Get It Now price and allow folks the chance to just buy the item out right !!!
here is a link that might help too !!!

dumb question. What happens if no one "gets it now", do I still have to forfeit all those credits because I only have 140 right now to begin with.

Jul 11th, 2012 at 5:53:53 PM PDT by

If you look at the actual "face" of the watch, if it has a battery it will say "quartz" or Electric" on the face somewhere

Jul 11th, 2012 at 5:47:10 PM PDT by

It doesn't say either. I just took a photograph of the face, sent it over to my email. Got to go and post it for you.

If no one uses the GIN all you lose is the 50 credit listing fee, if they use the GIN, then Listia charges 10% of your GIN fee

Jul 11th, 2012 at 6:00:24 PM PDT by

I just posted a photo of the face.

Jul 11th, 2012 at 6:02:03 PM PDT by

It should be a mechanical "wind-up" watch then !!!

Jul 11th, 2012 at 6:03:43 PM PDT by

Hopefully, you saw THE FACE. It is quite nice! I don't know why I forgot to add that photo. This shot was better than the first, so it worked out better the second time. Thank you for your tutorage!!!!!!!Much appreciated, now I "know!"

Jul 11th, 2012 at 6:10:53 PM PDT by

You are welcome and thanks for doing the GIN !!!

Jul 11th, 2012 at 6:10:37 PM PDT by

We are "even", both you and I are thankful; both are "welcome!" I mean it, I was scared to death to even contemplate it. The credits I hord for my church so they can have crafts to make and I worry about every single one because that is one less item that may be "had". It was my late father's congregation and I really wish them success and if this is what takes to help, I will do this for them. I was five when my father had this first church of his, he was buried from it. A great bunch of people.
