Sold for $3,000
Hello everyone, I would just like to state clearly that in light of the small internal breakage of one of the internal lighting supports, I will be including a shipping crate at my expense.
The shipping cost (i.e. courier cost) will still need to be settled by the winning bidder. I have estimated this cost to be $300 but please note that this could be less but it could also be more.
The reserve for this sign has been met and this item will sell.
Thank you
@dino70089 Thank you. The $300 is an estimate and it could be less but it could also be more. I very much doubt it will be substantially more but I would rather stress the point that it could be just in case.
The $300 quoted for the US, yes.
@dino70089 Good evening, thank you for the reply.
I will accept your request to cover the cost of a shipping crate and I will obviously extend this courtesy to all interested parties. Can I please just confirm that you will cover the shipping cost with the likes of FedEx?
Many thanks
This sign, given it's already shown its fragility, needs to be crated. I will stick with my bid as long as you pick up the cost for crating.
@dino70089 Thank you for the reply. Yes, that is the piece I am referring too and that is the exact location as well. There is another support section further up which performs the same purpose as the the section below and it is fully intact.
Kind regards
Is the absence of the broken piece indicated in the lower right of photo 28? It appears to have broken at 2 attach points (where it was screwed to the housing and perhaps where the ballast assembly attached to the broken piece. Can you confirm?
@dino70089 Hello again and thank you so much for the bid that has been placed. In light of the knowledge of this piece of plastic that forms part of the inner support structure that has broken internally, would you still be happy to continue with the auction with the bid that has been placed? If not I can ask the PCarmarket team to make an amendment and I would fully understand.
Once again, please accept my sincere apologies.
Kind regards
@OldSkool Good morning, I have now managed to retrieve the sign today and I have taken some photographs of the internals for you.
I did notice a noise today coming from the inside of the sign when I lifted the sign out from my car and I found a small piece of plastic had unfortunately come away. The piece of plastic is part of a supporting structure for the fluorescent lights. It still feels supported and the lighting is still in place (and fully operational) but this was a disappointing discovery which I imagine came about due to driving home with the occasional uneven roads (although it was sitting on a small mountain of bubble wrap).
I do sincerely apologize to everyone for this unfortunate discovery.

Hello everyone and thank you for viewing this auction.
I just want to let everyone know that worldwide shipping of this very special sign is available. As of yet I have not packaged the sign as it is currently in storage, however I have listed below some estimates based on the size:
USA - $300
Europe - €220
UK - £100
Every item submitted to the PCarmarket website can be shipped almost anywhere in the world using companies such as UPS or FedEx.
I always do all that I can to ensure items are packaged professionally and safely. I do not charge for the actual packaging of the items as I have an abundance of shipping material in storage. The only cost would be for the actual courier itself.
However, in certain situations a shipping crate may be required for certain items and this may even be a special request of the winning bidder to ensure the safe delivery of the item in question.
Unless a shipping crate has been specified in the listing or in the comments section then this will incur an additional cost to the shipping price as the crate would need to be manufactured.
There would also be a slight delay in the shipping to allow for the crate to be produced as well but a 7 day turnaround time would be a fair estimate.
The creation of a crate is not something I am personally able to undertake, but the good news is I have now found a company that will be able to have one commissioned on request from a dedicated packaging provider. There would be no additional fees to organize the crate production (only the cost of the crate itself would be required and for it to be paid for in advance of production). I do appreciate the delicate nature of some items will benefit greatly from this. To enable a fair and balanced sale of these cherished items, I am happy to spend the time involved to have this request fulfilled if desired.
If anyone has any questions please just let me know as I am always happy to help in any way that I can.
Due to my current working and personal commitments and the time zone difference, there may be a slight delay in my response. However, I will always reply as soon as I can.
Thank you once again to everyone for the interest you have shown and I wish you all the very best of success in the auction.
Kind regards
