C&C Antique & Resale Emporium is a family owned, 20 year business. As such, our reputation and the continued satisfaction of our customers is paramount to us. We understand that without the trust you have in our company, we cannot be successful. That is why while most of our competitors have 25 pages of legal disclaimers written by a team of attorneys, we will just say this:
1) We take great pains to authenticate and validate every item up for bid and take a lot of pride in that work. The founder of our company has over 25 years experience in the jewelry, art, collectible, and antique business. That being said, we are not omnipotent. If we made a mistake, just let us know and we will make every effort we can to make it right. That's just the way we do things.
2) We sell everything "as is". If there is a defect in a piece, we will highlight it in both the description and the picture if possible. The last thing we want is to sell you something and then you not be satisfied because it is not what you expected. Please feel free to ask us for clarification prior to the auction if you have any questions regarding the condition or construction of any item.
3) We don't use overly inflated "low" and "high" auction estimates to pump up our prices. Instead, we look to see what retail locations are selling our items for and use those prices for estimates. We are just able to purchase our products for significantly below these prices and pass the savings to you.
4) If you are the highest bidder for an auction piece, congratulations! It took us a lot of time and effort to find that piece and buy it at a price we think is really attractive. All we ask in return is that you pay for it promptly. We think that is a pretty fair trade.
5) We love buying collectibles at low prices. It is what gets us excited about coming to work in the morning. Photography, not so much. So while some of our competitors spend a lot of time making their items appear to float in air, we choose to work on buying new pieces for you to enjoy. So if you would like to see additional photos or detail on a piece, just shoot us an email and we would be happy to send you additional photos. We will leave the magic to magicians.
That's all we've got. In closing, please pay for items you purchase and any issues you have we will be happy to work out with you at pick-up.
IF YOU WANT ITEMS SHIPPED for any reason: Shipping within the United States is completed via USPS (U.S. Postal service) with tracking and insurance unless specifically requested by the buyer. For shipping outside of the US, we will use primarily FedEx depending on the value of the item and the destination country. All high value packages will require a signature upon delivery. In addition to the actual cost of the shipping and insurance, we do add a nominal per item handling fee. The more items you order, the less the per item handling fee would be. NOTE THAT WE DO SHIP MULTIPLE ITEMS IN A SINGLE PACKAGE WHEN POSSIBLE TO MINIMIZE SHIPPING CHARGES.
NOTE: We are NOT responsible for any damage incurred in shipping, THAT is why we would ask that you please pick your item up like everyone else!
It is up to the buyer to file insurance if items are damaged in transit. Shipping will be determined on a sale by sale basis after auctions are completed.
With that said, BID AND HAVE FUN!!
