6 Oneida USA BOSTON COLONIAL / MINUTE MAN Stainless Salad Forks

Description

USPS shipping has slowed intermittently for some of my shipments since July when they changed management. They say COVID, weather, resources.  Give it some time. I am at the mercy of USPS right now. All sellers are.  Eventually they have all arrived within 3 weeks. After 10 days with no tracking update, I will work with the USPS to determine what is happening and open a missing mail search if necessary. After 21 days, and no update, then I will refund.  This is the new USPS...for now, hopefully, not forever.  If you bid, please understand this.
Up for auction are 6 Salad Forks by Oneida USA in the Boston Colonial / Minute Man pattern.  They are stamped "Oneida USA" on the back.  Each is in Very Good/Estate used condition with only light scratching from stacking and use.  No disposal damage.  Each fork measures 6 3/4”.  Items are shipped first class, boxed and in bubble wrap.
NOTE: Generally I sell used flatware. In all cases, unless otherwise noted, I state the condition as Very Good/Estate used condition.  It is not new or mint or excellent although in some cases it may appear that way, that is just the general condition I like to use to describe flatware that has been previously used.  That means there may be some light surface scratches from daily use, some more than others depending on use. The definition of a light surface scratch is something that you cannot (or just barely) feel by touch. It is caused by everyday use.  It is NOT a nick or deeper gouge caused by a garbage disposal.  99% of the time I throw flatware in that condition in the trash unless otherwise noted where maybe the piece is rare and valuable and there may be interest damaged or not. In all cases, that would be noted in the ad.  Also, it means that flatware may not be not 100% glossy anymore (for glossy surface finishes). There may be some fading. In those cases, I polish those by hand to try to return the gloss as much as possible.  I try to put the best picture up I can so you can see what you are buying.  Again, I keep my starting prices reasonable because I know it is used in most cases.  For new flatware, I state the condition as Excellent, although in some cases it could be mint, but since it is wrapped I can't always visually see what is behind the wrapper. As far as postage goes, I keep my prices as close as possible to my actual costs. Some minor overhead is added for boxes, bubble wrap, tape, labels, and rubber bands.  Please message me if you have any questions. I generally check my ebay messages early in the morning, at lunch, and after work each day.
