Description: VINTAGE 1978~ BTS ~ **~ SOLID BRASS & AGATE / JASPER STONE ~**~* SMALL BELT BUCKLE *~Made in USA_______________________________ SIZE: This belt buckle is a bit on the smaller size and measures: 1 & 5/8" in height; 2 & 1/4" in width ~ For a better idea on the size, I have also shown it next to a dime in one of the pictures, as well. DESCRIPTION: This auction features a vintage BTS belt buckle. It is sold brass and bears what I believe to be either a agate or jasper stone on the front. This is an oval inset in the rectangular shape of the buckle itself. It is a bit on the smaller side and may have originally been intended for a woman or a child. The back is marked as follows: "c.1978 BTS, Solid Brass, BTS, Made in USA." It really does have a very classic look to it. Please do view the pictures as a part of the overall description, as I do feel they are extension to this desciption. If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact me, and I will be happy to help. CONDITION: FAIR ~ I am considering the age and use of this item when factoring the condition rating. This belt buckle appears to be in Fair condition for the age and use. As would be expected with something of this age, there is some minor usage wear seen -- mostly in the form of minor surface scratches. These are mostly localized to the back, though. There is some minor soiling and wear seen to the brass metal, as well. I suspect most of this is likely age / storage wear, and may be polished quite well. I suspect the same likely goes for the jasper or agate stone, as well. I will leave any cleaning or polishing to the new owner, though. Other than what is mentioned above, I do not see any other major issues with this piece. If there is anything I may have missed where the condition is concerned, please feel free to message me and I'll be happy to help. With age and use considered, I would still say this belt buckle rates in Fair condition overall. AGE/YEAR MADE: Circa 1978 ——————————— ** IMPORTANT INFORMATION: PLEASE READ! **~ GENERAL ~*** I do my very best to accurately describe the items I sell her on eBay; listing their imperfections as much as their attributes. I always note flaws so there are no surprises when an item is received. The items I offer are nearly always used, though, and therefore are not in, "mint" condition. In fact, I never use the word mint to describe an item. With that said, please do not misunderstand my sometimes low opening bids. They almost never truly reflect the actual value of any item. In fact, they are priced in such a way because I like to keep with the fun and excitement of an actual auction.~ PAYMENT & SHIPPING ~*** I kindly ask that payment for purchase(s) be made within 5 days of the close of the auction. Occasionally, I will offer a "Buy It Now" option: in those cases, payment is due as soon as the "Purchase Now" button is chosen. An automatic NPB (Non-Paying Bidder) notification will be sent after the 5th day if payment is not received. Paypal is currently the only form of payment I accept. I am more than happy to combine shipping on items, please just contact me prior to the auction's end. I can then send a combined invoice which will save you some money and me some time! :) Where shipping is concerned, I do my very best to ship items within 1-2 business day after payment is received. ~ PURCHASES & RETURNS ~*** I strive to make your buying experience with me as excellent as I can. With that said, please contact me if you are unhappy! I will do everything possible to correct the problem. On nearly all of my items, if you are dissatisfied with your purchase, you are welcome to return it for a full refund within two weeks (14 days) from the day it was received. Return shipping will be paid by the buyer, though. In certain cases, I may sell an item for a close friend of family member that does not belong to me. Those are usually the only instances that I do not allow returns. I figure, if the item does not belong to me, I should allow that decision to be made by the person who does own it. ~ SORRY, I NO LONGER SHIP INTERNATIONALLY! ~
