Travel Battleship Classic Game of Naval Strategy Milton Bradley Complete 1984

Description: Travel Battleship Classic Game of Naval Strategy Milton Bradley Complete 1984 . WELCOME TO THE INSTITUTE FOR HOMELESS ROBOTS. I, the illustrious Professor Robot Hands, will be your guide over the next few paragraphs. Please feel free to pretend to enjoy yourself. Here at the Institute we use use every square inch of our sprawling estate to house our treasures until they find their "Forever Home". Many of the curiosities we have accumulated over the years are stored in the "ATTIC OF HORRORS" with its aptly named "Shelves of Slight Discomfort"...some are sent to live in the "Hall Closet of Partially Alarming Clutter" or the "Garage of Unspecific Dread" and some of our long term guests are housed in the newly rented "Corner Office of General Unease". Either way your item is heard about, seen, driven to, ordered, found, bargained for, obtained, traded for, bought, delivered to, received by, signed for, inventoried, scrubbed, cleaned, powered up, repaired, photographed, cropped, rotated, uploaded, listed, shelved, picked, bagged, packed, labeled and shipped by one guy...Professor Robot Hands. If you think you might want to adopt multiple items, just send me a list of titles or item numbers and I can make special listing for you with them all together. You absolutely will not get combined shipping unless you specifically ask for it and it is agreed to...most likely it will. Please ask before, not after you buy, before. Is all this glorious exposition too much for you to handle? Does it just make you want to send me a passive-aggressive message so you can tell me about how you can't be bothered to read any of it? Yeah? Well, you should probably just move on. It is likely we don't see eye to eye and that rarely works out for either party....besides this really was a trap. Now more words! I pride myself on my expert ability to package and ship items safely. I employ both new & used boxes. Depending on the availability, a larger item may arrive in a double taped new or used cardboard box with; air-bubbles, peanuts, padded mailers & packing paper. I work with whatever I have on hand and that changes all the time. I try to re-use as much packaging product as I can. I hope that you can help re-use some of it too. If you need extra attention given to your package because you have a small mailbox, live in an apartment building or have a carrier that thinks mail requires bending as part of the delivery process, just let me know. If need be I can get some sheet metal. Returns go back to the Institute at same address they came to you from. If I find that I am at fault for damage or mis-shipment, I of course will take care of it. Any item refused, marked return to sender, undeliverable, vacant, etc. or comes without tracking will be abandoned or ignored unless you make prior arrangements with me. Don't try a phony return with me I will report you and withhold as much of your refund as I can. I buy, scarf, obtain, scrounge & hoard jigsaw puzzles by the HUNDREDS from church, garage, community sales and such and they may have musty, basement or attic like odors. ALSO there is NO feasible way for me to count each and every one of them. If you are an avid puzzler you already know that counting the pieces is not a guarantee of completeness anyway. If you do buy a jigsaw puzzle and find there is a missing piece(s), please just let me know and I will be happy to take care of it. Just send me a picture of the "completed" puzzle with the missing piece(s). Buying a puzzle from me means you acknowledge and consider each and every puzzle to be uncounted with a possibility of being incomplete...it does happen although it is quite rare. Keys are not implied to be either valid or invalid on any used games or software. Vintage software and magnetic media are sold for their pretty, pretty collectible packaging/art work and not guaranteed to have perfect image or sound quality. Music, game and other discs may be run on a professional buffer machine and then described as LN. Used & LN HC, TPB, DVD & BluRay games, movies and other digital media may or may not have intact or unexpired digital download codes or coupons. Some items may be completely disassembled or partially disassembled to ensure they arrive safely and unbroken. Batteries will not be included because they all over time leak and corrode electronics...don't store your stuff at home with batteries in it. My items come from many and varied sources (it would be an impossibility to tell you the smell pedigree of every item I have for sale) sometimes but not always including; the flatulent, smoking households, homes with weird pets, households with different gods or people that cook gross food. These theoretical "bad" smells are subjective. If you have a sensitive sniffer...don't look at me...blame your own nose. Making a best offer? It is called BEST OFFER not WORST OFFER. Don't bother with less than half. I know that means you aren't serious and no one thinks it's cute when you waste their time. Starting with a lowball offer is not going to get you a better negotiating position with me...it's going to get you a worse one. Am I not responding to your totally lame offers? Move on. Is the item already on sale? Well, that is the lowest it is going to go because I'm not here to give stuff away. When you come to my house...bring your money, or I don't have time for you. Wanting me to split a lot up? I bet you can tell what the answer to that is. Yeah, you're a smart one alright, I knew I liked you. Thinking of asking me to alter a customs form? NOPE....I will never, ever, ever considering doing it, so don't even ask. I'm not going to even pretend to entertain paying your customs fees. I can't even believe anyone even has the gall to ask that but they do. Am I an idiot? (entirely possible) Did I manage to misspell something even with spell checker on? Poor grammar? Did I use the wrong picture? Item details from some other book showing up? Got a $4000 handling fee? Is a fat blobby cat in the picture obscuring something? Shipping set to Overnight Express? Let me know, I'm just one, solitary, handsome professor and I list VERRRRY early in the morning. I am happy to thank for the assist. Know more than me about the item? ...eh, that's also possible. I'm an expert on many, many things, especially in the comics and toy area (1960s-2010s). I am not however Big King UGG- All Highest of Nerdlandia & Beyond. There are times where I'll miss something like an armor bit, a backpack, a trailer hitch a broken wing tip or a chipped ear. For that I beg your patience. It has taken me 25+ years to amass the knowledge that I have but there is still plenty more to learn. Need your item faster, like overnight? Want it shipped as a gift? Got special packaging or delivery needs, like to a giftee? Do you just like asking pertinent questions? Fire away! Please note that I cannot & will not mail your item to anywhere but the address(s) you have on file with ebay and chose at checkout. If you have a giftee in mind, put their address into your profile and choose it when you checkout. Do that BEFORE you buy anything. Looking for combined shipping? Also before you buy, not after. Need delayed shipment? ...again, before you buy is the time to ask for this. Think maybe the shipping is a bit off? ...before you buy. Help ME, help YOU. I'm happy to assist you with whatever you need BEFORE checkout. BEFORE. before before before before. Problem with your order? Drop me a line. I'm happy and determined to help and make your sale right. I'm only one guy doing all this so every now and then I do make a mistake....only problem is, with one handsome and humble professor doing all the work around here, there is no one left to catch the mistake except you. Item damaged in the mail? Well, dangit. In buying an item from the Institute you are agreeing to help out in any insurance claim, showing me pictures proving your damage claim and possibly keeping damaged merchandise and packaging. You get any given refund from me, I get my refund from the PO. To start, you show me a picture of the damage and the damaged packaging along with the correspondence or notes from the USPS. We may end up working it out through insurance and a postal inspector might need to take possession of the item or I may ask for a part to be mailed back, like a book cover or part of the box, I may ask you to destroy the item and provide proof or I may call it a wash. Remember you need to save any notes, damaged packaging and the damaged item as well because it may need to be given to the PO as part of a claim. I totally believe you that your item was damaged, now you can believe me that I need to see that picture anyway. Item go missing? Well...I have online view-able tracking on just about every package so just let me know and both of us can easily look into it. If it is a week or more outside of delivery then we should both call the USPS. It will dramatically increase the chances of shaking loose any stuck packages within the system. Please note Hawaii and Alaska residents you should already know that ebay delivery estimates to you are NEVER correct. I have had NO packages make it Alaska or Hawaii in the estimated time frame in over 20 years. Not one.So Stay Calm. However as much as I want to help, I have not, nor will I ever give a courtesy refund for an item that you say you didn't get but shows "delivered" on tracking. If you think there is a possibility of theft from your delivery address or it might rain on your packages, you need to shore that business up. Get a PO box or have packages held at your local...don't be puttin' it on me. My non-paying item cancellation it set automatic to the ebay minimum of 4 days. It really isn't personal. If you can't pay right away, it would be a good idea (and common courtesy) to ask if I mind before you buy. If you need a few extra days, I really don't mind. I certainly do mind if you don't ask. Not sure what the item is that I am selling? I know right! (You'd be surprised how often this happens) This is a BIG, ENORMOUS, TITANIC, YUUUGE hint that maybe you shouldn't just go and willy-nilly hit "Buy It Now". Look, I know I am not the most flowery of description writers. "This is the name of the thing I have, it is in X condition.", is about as far as I go. I sell niche market collectibles and oddities mostly. I can't even begin to imagine how you possibly got here if you don't know what my thing is. I'd so much rather you DID NOT buy something from me if you don't know what it is or what I am talking about. ...and why are you offering me money for a thing that you don't know what it is? WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN? If you are not sure what shelf wear, ding, stress, variant, chipping, oxidation, acid staining, Silver, Bronze, Copper Age, Full Bleed, JLA, JSA, BTVS, LOTR, ST:TNG, VF, GN, HC, PF, PB, TPB, OGN, OAV, MOC, MISB, DCU, MSRP or any of the other hundreds of common pop culture lingo terms mean....you are over your head and you are going to need some help. It's OK. Everyone starts somewhere. Feel free to ask me anything, (except the exact measurements of t-shirts....man if you require perfectly tailored t-shirts, ebay is not the place for you...try Millionaires T-Shirt Depot instead.) I'm your 20+ years experience Nerd Prince expert. Please make your questions very specific if you need more information and please...do your asking before you buy. If I don't respond there is a reason why. Move on. Again, because this is super extra important: I cannot & will not ship to any address other than one you chose at checkout. Make sure the address you want your item shipped to is correct before you pay. Once you pay...that's it, I don't ask if it is correct. Firm but fair. Informal but professional. Committed and honest. Long winded and slightly amusing. The Institute is an outlet for overstock and garage/estate sale & thrift store treasure hunt finds. I take it very seriously as this is my full time job. If you didn't like my novella length Wordy McWordwords, well I'm sure with enough time and counselling you'll come to forgive me. Also, meh.
