WE DO NOT TAKE THE THIEVING PAYPAL. REPEAT, NO PAYPAL. DO NOT BID IF YOU INTEND TO USE THOSE CROOKS.  SECOND CONDITION IS , YOU MUST HAVE 10 POSITIVE FEEDBACKS WITHOUT ANY NEGATIVES. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CANCEL ANY BIDS THAT DO NOT MEET OUR REQUIREMENTS AS SELLERS. MY INTENTIONS ARE NOT TO BE HARSH TO MY PERSPECTIVE BUYERS, I AM SIMPLY BEING CAREFUL. USUALLY NEWBIE'S CAUSE HAVOC TO SALES. THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND JUST HOW NICE SELLERS USUALLY ARE AND WILL DO ALMOST ANYTHING TO MAKE THEIR BUYERS HAPPY. THEY SIMPLY GIVE YOU A NEUTRAL WITHOUT FIRST EXPLAINING A PROBLEM AND LETTING THE SELLER MAKE IT FAIR. SO DON'T BID ON MY LISTING IF YOU ARE NEW. IT WILL ONLY IRRITATE ME AND YOU FOR BEING CANCELED. NOW IF YOU ARE NEW, AND KNOW YOU WILL ACT WITH SOME COMMON SENSE, SIMPLY EMAIL ME ASKING IF YOU CAN BID. FOR NOW I CAN STILL CONTROL MY SALES, NO MATTER WHAT EBAY HAS THROWN AT ME. THAT BEING SAID, YOU ARE BIDDING ON A ONE OF SIX KNOWN PIECES. YES, ONLY SIX OF THESE WERE PRODUCED. IT'S CONDITION IS MINTY MINT, WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. IT DOES HOWEVER HAVE SOME MANUFACTURES BUBBLES PRESENT. THE GOLD IS 100% PRESENT ON BOTH THE OUTSIDE RIM AND BOTTOM EDGE. IT IS 5 3/4" ROUND, 3" HIGH AND THE BASE IS 2 1/2" ROUND AT ITS BOTTOM. IT IS NOT MARKED WITH THE NORMAL HALL MARKINGS, BECAUSE IT WAS A SAMPLE PIECE/PROTOTYPE, NEVER PRODUCED, PROVIDED TO THE CLUB AND NEVER AGREED TO BE A CLUB PIECE. IT IS AS RARE AS RARE CAN BE, EVEN MORE RARER THAN THE ZEPHYR BUTTER DISH WHICH WAS KNOWN TO OF HAD SEVEN PRODUCED , ONE FOR EACH JEWEL TEA SECRETARY. EVEN MUCH MORE RARER THAN THE BATTER JUG, WING & BAR BUTTER DISHES, AND ALL OTHER PIECES EXCEPT THE KNOWN ,ONE OF A KIND PIECES , SUCH AS THE SALTBOX OR SYRUP AND OTHERS.  IT IS ACCOMPANIED BY A PHOTOCOPY OF THE ACTUAL INVOICE SENT TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE N.A.L.C.C. ON OCTOBER 28TH., 1991 TO VERIFY ITS AUTHENTICITY. BELIEVE ME WHEN I TELL YOU THIS FACT. YOU CAN BUY ALL THE JEWEL TEA/AUTUMN LEAF/HALL CHINA ITEM YOU WANT, WITH THE FACT, AS LONG AS EBAY IS AROUND, YOU WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO OBTAIN YOUR SPENT MONEY BACK FROM YOUR COLLECTION UPON THEIR SALE. THAT IS NOT THE CASE WITH EXTREMELY RARE ITEMS. THEY WILL ONLY INCREASE IN THEIR VALUE. FOR THAT I WILL GUARANTEE YOU THE TRUTH. LIKE ANYTHING ELSE A RARE AUTOMOBILE WILL DO GOOD AS AN INVESTMENT NO MATTER THE CONDITIONS IN THE MARKET PLACE.  IT IS CERTAINLY YOUR CHOICE, BUT I CAN TELL YOU FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCES, THIS VALUE WILL ONLY INCREASE.  I AM NOT STARTING THIS BID AT MY USUAL .99CENTS. THAT WOULD MAKE NO SENSE TO ME WHATSOEVER. I AM HOWEVER PROVIDING A STARTING BIDDING PRICE THAT I ESTIMATE BEING ABOUT 1/3 OR LESS OF ITS TRUE VALUE. IF IT DOES NOT SELL HERE , IT WILL BE SOLD OUTSIDE OF EBAY TO ANOTHER COLLECTOR IN A PRIVATE TRANSACTION. BASICALLY THIS IS YOUR ONLY CHANCE, THEN IT GOES BYE, BYE.                                                                                           PAYMENT PLAN OFFERED!!!!!!!!!
