Our item number 115836 Notices This item is an "eBay Live Auction". This means that each item will not close at a specific time like a regular ebay auction. Because this is a live auction the lot will be opened in a format like a real auction house floor. Bids can be placed real-time during the auction via ebayliveauctions.com and icollector.com. Please note, bidders may place bids before the auction up to 1 hour prior to the start of the auction. This is the recommended method of bidding if you have a slow internet connection or do not have the experience bidding in a "live" sale. Due to the speed of the auction, we highy recommend a DSL or cable connection . Once the auction has started, only live bids are accepted. Please do not call to place bids during the auction as they will not be accepted. The "Auction date and time" displayed by ebay has been known to be wrong. Please check our auction information page for actual start times on ebayliveauctions.com. These start times pertain to when the auction opens, not the individual lot. We typically run approximately 150 items per hour, so you can estimate from that when your item may be displayed. We will not be held responsible for ebay down time or internet problems. If ebay goes down, we will try our best to wait a sufficient amount of time for it to come back up. In the event that we cannot require ebay, all ebay bids during that downtime will not be honoured. There is a 20% commission charge added to each and every lot. Images & text re-used by permission, courtesy of Ira & Larry Goldberg Auctioneers, Beverly Hills, CA
